    My surname is Cripps...

    which became Krippz... which became kz...

    Which I try to use where I can! But a lot of forums don't allow usernames with just two characters, so I extended it to kayzee as I was annoyed with people prenouncing it kayzed

    I didn't choose mine. Ian S gave it to me when this website was being tested, before it went live. I never bothered to change it.
