Saint is just an adjective.

"Elistan" is the first Cleric of the Old God Paladine in the Dragonlance Chronicles.

I was born in 1986.

Tommy Westerman = twesterm

My old undergrad used your first initial and up to the first six letters of your last name for your email address (assuming it wasn't already taken) so we have twesterm.

That's exactly how I got mine except it was the first initial plus seven.

Forget the "except" ... westerm is seven letters long. 

As for me, Final Fantasy is obvious, plus I get to be the ultimate fan of stuff ("final").  The dash is just because.  When Final Fan is taken I go for FinalFanVI.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

I have the most epic death scene ever in VGChartz Mafia.  Thanks WordsofWisdom! 

Tetsuya Nomura gave me my name.

Hmmm, mine sounded good at the time. I try to look at it as a personal standard of quality to live up to.

The people who agree with my views tend to find it fitting at times.

The people who disagree find it ironic.

While it has probably been more trouble than its worth, I don't regret selecting it.


 Actually... the people who find it ironic might also think it implies some esoteric wisdom.

I'm a huge Total War fan. I cant wait for Total War: Empire to come out.

Me too, but I don't think I'll be able to play them

Munkeh came from the name of the ITV digital monkey, whose name was Munkeh, 111 came from having to add something onto Munkeh around the net, and I had to change my name after I lost my password, so I just made it the same as my PSN id
