I use different names for different games

Using the same name across everything usually bites you in the ass when someone finds something you said or did in another game or forum.

When I was 8 years old back in '99 I really liked Seinfeld. George Costanza especially. So every game I played I had the name George or George Costanza as my name.

When I got steam a while back it was a natural choice what my name was going to be.

there was a bit of a rough patch back when the whole >2011 thing started up and everyone kept calling me a faggot for naming myself after a "4chan" meme. Fuck this place sometimes.

I named it after a song I really like but wasn't able to fit it all in.

Song is Stand in Silence so I shortened it to StandSilent. I liked the ring of that so just stuck with it.

Fun fact: unless you were 20+ in 2000 you are a millennial. Judging from your post, you might be a year or two older than I am and I am considered a millennial.
