Why the username Zaxotes?
Thanks for this question! The answer is quite complicated. I'll try to explain how the name was derived.
My actual name is 'Akshay' and sometimes while writing 'ksh' is replaced with 'x' - that renders the name as 'Axay'. I derived 'Ax' from this name.
As my real name started with 'A', the first letter of the English alphabet, I wanted my username to start with the last one, thus 'Z'.
So, 'Z' + 'Ax' made it 'Zax', but was too short for a username. I tried making 'Axe' from 'Ax' but 'Zaxe' was not sounding too good.
I was investing lots of my time
Age of Mythology when I joined PC. In this game, with the Greek civilization, I found that there were warriors who wielded 'Axe' as their primary weapon and they go by the name 'Taxotes'.
This was the last bit of my username derivation and 'Z' + 'Ax' + 'Taxotes' gave me
Zaxotes.
That's the story of my username!
