About

Booben is a popular nickname in the Warframe community for the character Vauban, originating from a thread in the Warframe forums where a user asked in very broken English how to acquire him, referring to the frame multiple times as "Booben".

Origin

On January 5th, 2014, Warframe forum user SWIXSAP created a General Discussions thread titled "How is booben Formed?" (a possible reference to the meme How is babby formed?) [1] attempting to ask where to find the parts for the Vauban warframe. While it is unknown whether or not his misspelling was an attempt at trolling, other users soon began poking fun at the user for their extremely broken English and repeated butchering of Vauban's name.

After the original thread was locked for derailing, the following day on January 6th, a thread titled "The Booben Megathread" [2] was created, where users posted images of "Booben" and demanded the original thread be unlocked.
