My Nick Name has no origin, people like to think the Harry meant Harry Potter or something around there, but it was just some entirely random idea. I am just a creative person.

As I said before, it definitely has to be connected with Oddworld series. Giving mental pain to the Sligs can be sooo fun. And such a catchy hobby.

Was the name of one of my D&D characters back in junior high. A Druid/Ranger. When the Legend of Zelda came out, I recycled the name. Then it came to mind when registering for my first internet forums. I've used it for every site since.

My name is loosely based on Cate Archer's cover name "Foxhunt". (Cate Archer is the protagonist of the "No One Lives Forever" series, a series of games absolutely everyone should play.)
Over the years I've used many different nicknames, but they've all contained the word "fox". (Or "rev", which is my language's word for "fox".)
EDIT:
As to the question itself - I've no idea where your nickname is from, just wanted to take this opportunity to spread a little NOLF love. :p

It has to be the Curse of Monkey Island.
I guess it is the name of the cannon. "Paingiver 2000"

Even though the contest is over, i'll throw my 2 cents in here in case anyone cares....
My name comes from a canine companion i had and the year in which i was born.
When i was younger, Elvis Presley was slowly fading away but still had a lot of fans. My grandmother had an record of his that she'd always play and I starting to call him Hovis instead of Elvis cuz i was young and couldn't pronouce crap. Fast forward to 1998 when i was living by myself and adopted a Border Collie and couldn't think of a damn name for him. Ah! I thought...Hovis, from my childhood. No one i knew had a dog that thad that name before...sucess.
I used the Hovis1974 tag on almost anything i play or do on the webs...so if you see it, it's probably me.

I've had this name for a pretty long time and kinna just stuck with it
though on different forums and places it had to be varied because often the username was already taken
