What's the origin of your username?

@Alientcp said in #40:

My original nickname was Alien_Invasor (second part means invader, but in spanish).

However, many sites have a username length shorter than that. Some of them dont allow spaces, underscores or just plain dashes.
So I had to shorten it. So I kept the first part. But, since I was making a username for a chess site (probably FICS at that time), since I play chess, then is "Alien the chess player", but that isnt going to pass in any site as a username, so, only the initials of the last part remained and it ended up like Alientcp.

I thought it had to do with the network protocol.

From the game "Chuchel" (Amanita Design). The Le are the first two letters of my real name.
