Question about names

Why do euro players have names like this:

Stealth R, Crusher K, Jezz NL, VelocityV, etc.

What's up with the letters?

I guess us Europeans don't have as much imagination as everyone else when it comes to thinking up names . . .

Well, in the NTSC servers you can have all the alternated letters...as well as:

~!@#$%^&*()_+|\=-[{]}'";:,<.>/?

In your name, so than that adds like 10 bujillion more combinations for us.

Yeh my name is a joke.. its not actually JezzNL anymore though. It is basically when the name is taken.. so they just put a random letter at the end. As otter said we cant have alt characters so it makes it a bit harder.

If you have a North American PS2 and version of the game, you just type the name with an on-screen keyboard. A button on the keyboard changes the letters to have accents and things like that.
