Character in the classic PC fighter game Hellbender ( pauses for nostalgia moment) that gets turned into a giant cybernetic zombie robot boss thing.
Dont ask about the underscores.

I don't know actually....I played on PTC Relaxed RP and met some friends there and they just kept calling me this, so I went with it....

From the geological formation of the same name. When I learned that word as a mere child, I immediately thought it sounded cool. And I've used it as a nick pretty much since the internet.
Only problem is, it's usually taken on larger communities.

My friends back in high school used to call me Chrono, it comes from the Greek word Khronos which means time. The reason I was tagged with such a nickname was due to the fact that throughout my entire High school life, I was never late for a single class, not skipping nor wasting time with hanging about in the halls.
Kinda sad now that I think about it... but meh, It's a cool nickname.

An obvious gallicism of Achilles, I desired to create a character who perceives himself as infallible, whilst containing the odd flaw beyond those resident within most of his peers.
The Hellenistic tie also further implies that the character is a homosexual, as Achille is an even combination of flagrant truths and noxious stereotypes.
Actually, I just thought the name was endearing and built the character around that.

Wanted to pick up a name for a character long time ago and it popped out from my mind. Some years later I had to realise that this is a common name, not my mighty superpower unique virtual callsign...
