Mine's kinda lame... back in 1995 I went to watch a stage hypnotist and was fascinated with it, so went to talk to the hypnotist after the show and stuff. His e-mail address was "hypn@<domain>".
The first time I needed a nickname for a multiplayer game (probably Duke Nukem 3D or Quake), given my interest of hypnosis, all I could think of was hypn... and it's kinda just stuck over the last 13 years so not much point changing it.
(off topic, that stage hypnotist and I have become really good friends over the years)
