How did they choose that GamerTag?!

I've been asked recently how I chose my gamertag: iCrim. It is actually a main charaters name from the anime .hack//sign. "Crim (クリム, Kurimu^?) is a Long Arm featured in .hack//Sign. His avatar is a male with spiky blue hair, a red jacket, flared red and yellow pants, and a wave symbol on his chest. Crim plays as a very happy-go-lucky character, easygoing and sociable. He enjoys testing his skills against strong opponents and is always ready to help anybody in need. He founded the Crimson Knights with Subaru, though he eventually leaves. He is very close to Subaru, as he knows that she is handicapped and offers his phone number to her if she feels the need to talk. He is a business man in his real life and is frequently sent off on business trips to places all around the world." (Taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crim) I thought the character represented me because I am a business man myself and have some of his other characteristics
(no blue hair).

  So I went and asked my 300 followers on twitter how they chose their gamertag and here are the first responses if you want to share your story message me on twitter I'll gladly add it to the list;
