The Shattering of... Names?

So the shattering finally happened. And it is epic. The cinematic was one of those with such an epic feel that it gave me goosebumps and shiver ran down my spine just to watch it. I think that's my definition of experiencing something that I feel justifies as epic, the spine tingle / goosebumps sensation. I remember some pieces of music do it for me, the scene in Lord of the Rings where Rohan comes to the rescue, the save sound music from Skies of Arcadia, the way I felt when Kimi told me she loved me... Just little things that give you a tingle letting you know 'shit just got real'. That's what the cinematic for Cataclysm did for me, everything from Deathwing's voice to the way he flies across Azeroth is just amazing. Super props to the WoW cinematic team. That was amazing.

Now would be a fantastic time to level up a new character and experience some of the new starting zones, especially the new Gnome zone. I will be devoting my time to trying to get the required materials for leveling up Engi/Blacksmithing on my new character. Which is no longer going to be named Kearney. Instead I will be using Kechlion. I have a druid named Kechlion right now. I don't particularly care for druids, I have yet to have fun as one. Maybe these new changes make it better somehow. But I want that name.

Kechlion was one of the first online names I ever used. The very first was Twirling Hammer in Guild Wars, however shortly after I moved to college (and graduated from dial up) I needed a moniker that I could use on a fairly regular basis. I sat down at my keyboard, let my fingers rest on the keys, and then typed what came to me, which was Kechlion. I've always said it was pronounced like Keck-leon which I guess I could have spelled it like that, but I like my spelling better. Many people have pronounced it very differently. I rarely ever correct them unless they ask. Most of the time they shorten it to either Keck or Kech (as in Ketch) which is fine. It was my first XBOX gamertag, my steam account name, and now my forum name for everywhere I go. So, I have decided I am going to delete my druid and salvage that name. In making a new main character I thought it was about time to make my normal name a successful one.
