Well everyone, most of us have some significance behind our screen names.

Mine, mrciurleo, is often referred to as Mr. Ciurleo. I’m 15, nobody calls me Mr.

My first name is Matt, and my middle initial is “R”. Hence, mrciurleo.

What about you all?

My name is Joey, needed an xbox live screen name way back when for halo2 since I couldn’t remember the logon for my original account. I hung out with another Joey and a Joe, and our parents called us the GI Joes. You see where this is going.

“an” = first two letters of my first name, and “mo” = the first two letters of my last name.

Have used it as a gamer tag and in other mediums since I was a teenager, so I guess you could say it’s stuck.

My last name, Zorovich, is Croatian. My family, back when they lived in Croatia, had it spelled without the H on the end, so Zorovic. This means, Son of Zor or Zorro.  
Also, at the time of creating that account, a movie I loved watching was called the Mask of Zorro. So, I chose that name.

Now I love using that name. I have used it in my videos and it has become my stage name. Lots of people at contests will know me for my name, Zorro. It’s actually really cool when I introduce myself as Paul Zorovich, then they ask “Zorovich, like as in Zorro?” I say, yes, that is my yye forum name and they go “Are you serious? Dude, you’re all over, it’s a pleasure to meet you.” But, seriously, alecto knows exactly what I’m talking about, he gave me the best reaction. “I can’t believe it, it’s Zorro. I’m talking to Zorro.” Then he turned to his brother and said, “Hey, it’s Zorro, look.” It was hilarious.  
As it turns out, even the players on my GN Yoyo Co Team call me Zorro.
