So about your username???

I was designing and patenting my own toy car track system so I needed a related name. I asked somebody and they suggested Race, because we're downhill racing, and Grooves, because of the grooves in the track that the cars race down. Done! He tried to suggest more but I was enamored with Race Grooves.

As for my screen name, it's just my name. Mark Kasimoff, Kaz bing a common nick-name.
 
I changed so many nicknames in my gaming career it's not even funny .
Stocazzo : Means this d**k in italian . Pretty used expression . Lately it's pretty "abused" .
Professor Headshot : I got pretty "famous" in the CS 1.6 european community back then with this nickname .
Raige : I wrote wrong Rage during a registration to a Warcraft 3 tournament . Fun fact , few years later an Italian rapper popped out of nothing with the same name . He's pretty famous in the Italian scene now .
Artik : This was my favourite skin in CS 1.6 so I used this nick for some time
Motherfucking Player 1 : There was a game I can't remember the name . Well , the default nickname was Player 1
From Motherfucking Player 1 I went for MFP1 into MFP into MotherFucking Patrick into MF Patrick .
Never changed since then ( 3-4 years or something like that ) .
Well yeah but not permanently . On Steam I change my nickname once a week ( last nick was "Jessie , we have to cook !" and "You're A ***** Harry !" rofl .
 
Mine is a bit complicated ...

1. If I spelled it correctly (Kleinegans ... "kleine Gans" in German), it would mean Little Goose (which is a derivative of what my German relatives called me as a kid ... "Die kleine Gaenschen von Michigan See" ... The Little Goose from Lake Michigan).
2. Based on the way I am spelling it, kleine = female "small" or "little", ganz = everything, the whole of something, could loosely be translated as "a little bit of everything" (which sums up my channel quite well ... since it's a mix of random video games, and my vlogs are a mix of random topics).

Either way ... it's fairly unique and has let me grab that name across social media. :)
 
Cromartie is my legitimate last name. Too bad that was taken, so I added my DOB (1989). That ALSO was taken so I threw a Mr in front of it.

My only regret is the mister, too gender locking, but I figure too many people know that name by now for me to up and use a new one (I clearly use Cromartie everywhere else though, including here).

GKart64 was my tag on Mario Kart on the Nintendo DS.

G = Gabriel, Kart, and 64 from the Nintendo 64.

Could be worse I guess and have tons of meaningless x's and numbers :p

Haha true! I used to love playing Mario Kart on the DS and then I got it for the wii years ago and only realised how to play internationally against people a few months ago haha
 
When I first went online for gaming. I joined a community that said "using the real name, gives more respect". So... It's my last name! Simple as that.
 
I wanted something that's as close to my real name as possible - which I thought would help me be myself on YT - but still fun and memorable :)

I'm sorry, Kleineganz does not mean that, not even loosely, but you know what it reminds me of? The expression "Kleine ganz groß" which means a child or little one doing something beyond her years or something extraordinary :)
 
(TheJeriKaneShow)

JeriKane is my internet persona, which I came up with in the summer of 2012. It's a combination of the names of two of my favorite wrestlers ever, Chris Jericho, and Kane. I got bored, and thus, JeriKane was born.

(which, by the way, is meant to be said as one word. I just made the 'K' a cap so that it looked cooler. It's not meant to be two separate names).

As for the rest, my YouTube channel is based around my show. ^.^

I disagree. I'm a native speaker of German and English, and very loosely it *could* be translated as that (I know technically it's "little whole" which is meaningless, but if you stretch it a bit "A little bit of everything" isn't *that* far fetched.). Bottom line when I went to make my username the first time (way back on Friendster) "Kleinegans" was taken so I had to change the spelling to "Kleineganz."
