    Personally I dont think Phoenix 874 is bad name. Its just a name and a couple numbers. The ones i hate are like if it was "Ph03nIx 874"

    But yeah you did pick a pretty common name. I dont think its a big deal but if you really do want to change it you better think long and hard (mmm... long... hard...) about what you want to change to because that **** costs 10 dollars son.

    My favorites are the ones that emphasize their drug habits. And oh so cleverly too. XBL will ban a name like Titmar but any knucklehead can throw a 420 at the end of their tag? arrgh...

    Why do you say that?... A 'drone' is another word for a robot or a low,moaning, non-stop noise.

    Insane Robot822?

    Insane Moaning-Noise822?

    Erm...

    Well I never did the Xbox thing for the longest, I was a PS fanboy. But there I was in Iraq... and these guys I worked with always played Halo 2 all day (yes, at work), so when I joined in I just came up with Predicide on the spot by combining the suffix for "to kill" with predator. So it's "to kill a predator". I never looked it up to see if it's a real word, but I think it might be... So when I got my 360 it happened to be untaken as a gamertag, so I took it. I guess that would make it origional?

    my GT came from my fav-o-rite Anime Trigun. it was origionally guythestampede named after Vash the stampede the main character. I joined a clan maby 2 months after and i changed it to KoG stampede but now the KoG part is probaly going to go a way. the clan became very split up so the leader and i started a new one but we don,t know what to call it but the KoG i going away. so now that you know, the less you don,t know.

    General Heed, lots of people ask me where it is from. It all started a few years ago with a game called Runescape. I created my first acount called Kid general. However, that acount was a failure because as soon as I started, I attacked a lvl 2 Man and died lol. I lost all the items it had. So i made another acount and fought that lvl 2 Man again. Once again i died and lost everything. After about 20 acounts, I started running out of ideas for names. My most recent acount was named General Reed. So i decided that since I couldn't think of anything, I would just think of something that rhymes with Reed since that acount came close to succeeding. I thought of several names and finally chose Heed for no particular reason. After I created General Heed, I attacked the lvl 2 Man and this time I won the fight. Soon after, my General Heed acount improved and got stronger. 2 years later which is now, it has become a level 71 with high stats focused in the melee section as well as the prayer skills. It has also made lots of money in the game and has one of the best non-member armor (Full Gold-Trimmed Rune Armor (Rune G)). This was all in October 2007. Near the end of that month, I got an Xbox 360 and Xbox Live. On Xbox Live, I had to think of a good name for the gamertag. I saw how successful my General Heed acount on Runescape was so I decided to migrate General Heed from Runescape to General Heed on Xbox Live. Basically, General Heed has a legacy. So far, it's been a very successful acount on Xbox Live and Halo 3. Well, that's practically how I got the Gamertag, General Heed, because of a very simple online game called Runescape.

    Mine would be Masta Blasta, but that was taken so I changed a letter. I chose it because it has a nice ring to it and because I'm a master blaster.

    My gamertag is Nemihara. I use it because it's the same name as my anti-hero-type protagonist/antagonist in a small fiction I'm writing. In it, Nemihara is basically a Grim Reaper. He uses polearm weapons. Plus, it's practically the only name not being used on XBlive right now. Number names are -lame-.
