Games Radar has an article about the psychological backgrounds for choosing what do for gamertags. Does yours mean you’re a sexual deviant, a sociopath, or something else you don’t even want to think about? Are you looking for attention or approval? Or just looking for somewhere to hide in the miscellaneous world of the intarweb? Whatever your reasoning, there is always a good reason why you chose your gamertag. I mean, DonkeyBalls69 didn’t just hit some random characters. 
It’s a good read, so check it out.
Since my gamertag revolves around an animal, this is what the site has to say about me:
these tags tend to be some of the more creative and use some of the best humor
Well, that about hits it right. The actual source of my gamertag was hanging around drunk one night. I asked a friend what would be a cool new gamertag, because I was tired of my original gamertag from the days of the Xbox Live Beta. He said “wouldn’t it be hilarious to see on the screen ‘You were head-shot by a group of drunk pandas’?”. I found it intriguing, and shot over to the Xbox v1 (this was pre-360) to see what I could come up with. Due to size restrictions, it had to get shrunk to drunk pandas, but it still invokes a good level of laughter when you see that on the screen.
