my name has always been orange in chat and my mate's is blue. we never chose them. is it random or tied to the username?

It's not random, and you can't pick it. In the old chat system the colour came from your username: the letters got run through a small formula that picked one of a handful of colours, so the same name always got the same colour. Games can override it with their own chat setup, which is why some show tags or different colours.
