Ashura - What some fans called a palette glitched Sonic in Sonic 2. I don't care either way why they called it that but I liked the name and started to use it as my own. And also have been asked if I'm a gurl many times. Not the best name choice apparently.

Zero - Number of reasons. Main one was someone else had the name on efnet often when I started using it so I had to add something. Fond memories of the original batch of Megaman X games before they were totally butchered.

Side Note. I use Zro more commonly due to the 9 character limited names on EFNet and originally requested AshuraZro for a name change here a long time ago. Whoever changed it figured I meant for Zro to be Zero. Whatever, I'm wasn't that picky and I'm still not. Was more for getting some CAPS!

"Veho" was derived from two different sources.

In the (good?) old days of arcade gaming, you could only have three-letter signatures on high-score charts. I used to sign in as "WAX". One day, a friend of mine bought a calculator with an alphanumeric screen and phonebook function. The screen was pretty basic, and the letters were pretty ugly, and you had to actually know what the thing was displaying to be able to read what the thing was displaying. "Wax" was a problem, because "X" looked like "H", and "W" didn't look like anything much, so one day somebody flipping through the phonebook read the name out as "Vaeh". The nickname lingered for a while, and then faded away. And there it would have ended, were it not for the second circumstance.

My real name is Vedran, and foreigners usually couldn't pronounce it, so I had to make a sort of non-phonetic, English-spelled version, which would be easier to pronounce, so I came up with "Veh-drun". This reached the ears of the friend with the calculator, who decided that it was my destiny to be known as "Veh". The "O" got attached somehow later on, and Veho I stayed.

It's quite simple. I was using a different nickname for every thing back in the day when I received the Internet connection (dial-up, yay!). Though when I started using the forums, I decided I need an universal nickname. To think something up fast, I just took the initials of my name and surname, Matjaz He*****. Now, I doubt anyone on these forums (except people of Slavic origins, eg. Veho or tisti or Bruce ...) could pronounce my nickname or even my full name. My is translated Matthew to English (though we have three version of Matthew here - Matija, Matic and Matjaz) and is pronounced something like mutt-yush. My surname (as I heard) means a violin player in Hungarian (or so I've heard), therefore, my name could be translated to Matthew Fiddler.

). I don't remember when or why I started shortening it like this... It's nice for highscore tables but I don't think that was the original cause... I probably just thought it was cool.

I still love it and use it everywhere. An advantage is that you can't really find it with Google. Imagine someone I know in real life found this forum.
