I have learned here on YA that there is a stock phrase "me, myself, and I" existing in English, to refer to personal originality, and integrity. If it should be exactly this wordplay you like to translate, I must tell you that this very English expression hasn´t got any German counterpart. It simply can´t be said with all those German words you read above.

I = Ich
Me = mir, mich
Myself = selbst, mich

You can hear the pronunciation at this site:

As the others have already said "I" means "ich", me means "ich", "mir" or "mich" and myself means "ich selbst" or "mich". If you want to put these three words on your homepage for example you would translate it as "Alles über mich". That means "All about me".
