User name Origin Tales: Part Dos Cause I know you missed it.

One bad thing about original usernames: google it, and you have connections to every forum, social networking site, or MMORPG they've ever used.:/

bbranam7: just tried it with you, wound up on your Facebook page. XD

I was just messing around in an english lesson one day in year 9, me and a couple of friends were just sat there seeing who make make the most retarded face at my teacher, and he just kind of span round and yelled "excuse me, Missster Deeeeaaaannnn, but I am trying to teach here!" He got particularly angry with me when I wouldn't stop laughing, due to my friend sat right next to him doing this:

Ah, Mr. Andrew, you oblivious old fool. Anyway, he over pronounced it so much that it just kind of stuck.

Hm, I have two names I go by now...

Uh, Soluna was just the name I gave to one of my old old old OCs except it was Lunasol, so I just switched it around and joined a forum. It sounded better.

For Toffee, I saw a picture of chocolate and then thought 'man I haven't had any toffee in a long time'. Then I conveniently happened to join the forums while I was thinking about that.
...I still haven't had any toffee since that time.

You need to fix that...

I just picked a anime name at random I use 2 different names Tensa Zangetsu and Lelouch Vi Brittania
  • #163

D
My first name.
M
My middle name
L
My third name
D
My fourth name
96
The year I was born in.

Also, I just realized M is my middle initial and "M" is the first letter in middle, making my mid name have the same letter for both middle and Manuel.

I also got two more usernames, but those are two different stories I don't feel like telling.

@DMLD You have very short names. And it also appears you are almost two thousand years old.

Short, simple, clean, all the power in their.

You know what's messed up though. I have no wrinkles and smooth skin, for being my age.
  • #168

I don't know.


EDIT: Overdue elaboration time!

The first time I used '?' as a username was when I commented on one of the (BCB) comic pages. I used it because I thought "Hmmm... I guess I'll use my regular online alias. Wait, me! If I do that, then anyone on here can just search for my regular alias online and find all sorts of stuff about me out!! That was a horrible idea!!! But then what should I use for my name...?" Since I honestly didn't know what to use, I used a '?' to represent my 'IDK' status. Afterwards, I learned how to join the forums (my first visit I had thought that you had to be a BCI member to join; silly me). Then I learned that a username had to be at least three charaacters long. Woe was me. But due to my laziness and afore mentioned paranoia, I just stuck with '?' (only I used thrice the amount of question marks).

I don't think I've been in this thread so

It's my first name and part of my surname.
Really I just used to use it for my email accounts but then I decided my other nick was stupidly retarded and now I only use it on IRC because it's shorter and easier to recognize I guess.
This one is the one I use practically everywhere.
  • #170

Because I am lazy I never posted in this thread. Because I am lazy I am also not going to go into the old forum archives to dig up whatever I posted in the other username thread. So here we go:
I used to have a DeviantArt account. One day I looked at it and realized everything I made was shitty and I acted like a moron, so I decided to make a new account. I couldn't come up with a good name though, so I didn't create the account. For Christmas of that year (2009 I believe) I got my Wacom Bamboo Pen tablet. It came with Corel Painter Essentials 4, which was very exciting because I could then produce digital art and stuff. So anyways, after about 4 weeks of scribbling, I watched the tutorial videos on the webpage about how to use layers and the different brushes etc. That night, we were making s'mores, and I came up with an idea. I rushed to the computer, and, using my new knowledge of basic program functions I should have already known, I created this:
Spoiler

I was under the impression that this was GOOD SHIT so I made somewhere around five thousand terrible marshmallow related comics and pictures within the next few months. Then I decided that because of these abominations I would name my account Marshmallow Madness. Basically the account filled with shit but I'm done with DA so whatever. So in late May/ early June of last year when I stopped lurking the old forums and decided to post, I had to come up with A NAME. By this time I had realized that Marshmallow Madness was long and shitty but I'm not very creative when it comes to nicknames so I just typed "Mallow." Since then I've used Mallow and various versions of it for pretty much everything on the internet that I use.

But its a lot better that my Xbox name, which nobody had ever pronounced correctly.

I feel your pain, darkwolf, noone can properly pronounce my username either, and I've even had people that have a hard time spelling it too.

Anyhoo, my username came about when I started playing Runescape, like forever ago, and it was originally Sky_Kushreneda.

I decided I wanted to start over, but wanted a similar name, so I shortened the second part to Kushryd, and have been using it ever since.

Heh, I'm occasionally having issues with the same thing.

For example here on these forums.

  • #177

from my first name. Its a German spelling of a common American name. My friends called me that in school to avoid calling other girls with the same name.

Katti= Katt + i= cateye

Simple.
  • #178

Usually, my username is some variant on "Mtrix534." That's actually my username on Candybooru. I was about to make that my username for this forum, but then thought; "Nah, It should be something more exciting." Thus, the phrase "Johnny Hurricane" was born.

FUN FACT: My name IRL isn't Johnny; it's Jack.

Ciclopotis: Cyclo(ps) (with an i) + (Perse)polis (with a t). Can't remember where I got that from, though, probably Age of Mythology and history books.

I'm trying to outgrow mine. On a related note the person over whom I felt guilty enough to pick the name is in jail for the next three months awaiting trial. I don't know the specifics, but I know enough about the charges to leave a little hint:

mine doesnt have a uber creative story like some peoples, but its my Pesterchum(which is kind of like AIM) handle, and since i like cats, it fits. im just a typical feline...or a some have put it, typical furry, typical faggot, etc.
  • #183

This is partly a hand-me-down from an older sibling. He had his shared download folder named "SoulSeek MooSack" to which I likened it as my handle.

If it were wise to use it for all of my handles, I most certainly probably would.

Back in 2008 I joined the Youtube community to create Sonic The Hedgehog AMV's, Shadow was my favorite at the time, and I wanted to sound dark and edgy.

Shadow was taken, as was Shadow1 so I combined it with my favorite Pokemon Mew to create Shadowmew1. However, being young at the time I created a typo and Shadownew1 became my Youtube handle by mistake.

During the short lived days of the Youtube Streams I met many friends that I still have today, back then they called me Shadow since we all decided that Shadownew1 was extremely dumb. One day while chatting with a friend she basically just outright said, "fuck it, can I call you Shada?" And the name stuck ever since then.

Well 4 months ago I joined candybooru under the name Link4565. A month later I joined the forums under the same name. However about 3 weeks in, my computer crashed. All my passwords were lost from the computers memory, meaning that unless I remembered them. I forgot the forum password, so since I still wanted to be on the forums I thought of a new name. I thought of how whenever I am hanging out with friends I suprise them by coming out of nowhere at them. One friend started calling me deathfromabove, soon all my friends did. So I used that
  • #186

I was a huge Death Note fan back in 2010, and the name just kinda stuck with me.
  • #187

The Zoe part was from a roleplaying game I started playing on this forum. Since I barely did anything in this community but roleplay, soon most people started knowing me as Zoe. I decided to stick with it, but decided to add Stellan at the end because:

a) Zoe is a girl's name, so Stellan kinda counteracts it.
b) Together, it means "Calm life" or something like that.
c) Thought they had a nice ring together.

Now people barely remember my original username. =P

On League of Legends though, I am known as LuminoRay. That would probably be my only alter ego, and created it to play with some of my noob low level friends. I ended up maxing it too and liking it more than my ZoeStellan account, so that's the one I play as my main now. As to where the name came from... I was aiming for a "Random-internet-guy" and "I'm gonna save you all" kind of thing, and thought LuminoRay did the trick.
  • #188

Regularpatron was actually quite a simple username to create :) When you frequent places to buy something a title for that kind of person is called a patron, and I always wanted to be a regular of a forum :) From those two the name Regularpatron was born!
  • #189

Well for a bit in highschool me and some friends wanted to run around as Final Fantasy characters, at first it was just me and three others, myself being at Level 50 and the others being about five levels below me. Soon we got nearly half the school in on it(Note my school was only about 400 students total) and they all had character classes and levels. Even then I was the only Fighter and I was the highest level out of everyone, which was cool. So I just sort of stuck with being Fighther, and just kept Lvl 50 on there too.

Also Lvl 50 was around the level in Final Fantasy 1 when I got the rat tail and changed to Warrior.

Edit: P.S I have played FF 1 like ten times and it remains the same. Level 50 and I get that upgrade.

Right, well... Originally my name was "ereshkiggal," which was a misspelling of "ereshkigal," which was a spell from Fire Emblem that sounded really awesome at the time.

Then I changed it to "Lux Aeterna." It was in a support conversation in FE8 with Lute and Artur, and it sounded pretty cool, but it was also a reference to my favorite FE character of all time. So that stuck.

A variation of my name is "Lucky Lux," which I use on FP.com, League (close enough, anyway), and FF.net, for three reasons: "Lux Aeterna" was taken, "Lucky Lux" is alliteration, and I think myself very lucky in many pursuits--hell, a symbol of my own relationship (not quite arbitrarily decided) is the four-leaf clover.

I was called "Mercury" for a short time back in late 2009 when I was busy bringing messages back and forth between people and brought two (internet) couples together by gentle nudging.

But the first time I went to an online community was Runescape. And, well, I joined when I was 10, so I wanted to be "witty" (stupid and unfunny). So I named myself "bananabut2.0" (without a second t because of the 12 character limit). Oh well. It was 7 years ago, but I still shake my head at it.

Well Aris is my middel name and i has been my username for about all of my life, and the 5467 comes from my PSN (which for some reason is Akira5467) i needed numbers and it was 2am so 5467 came to mind.

I've been using this old thing since I was ten. I got the idea for it from the Disney Atlantis movie. those cool guardians that come up out of the water and clap and make a glowing orb of protection around the city? yah... but I misspelled it. Hey, I was ten. However when on different sites I attempted to spell it correctly I found it already taken so I decided to Screw it I'll spell it this way always so that it will always be available. Its the internet if anyone gives a crap they can sit in it and I won't care. And so it was. I still have people who try to make fun of "oh lol brah ur usrname is splled wrong!" *cough* susan *cough* and really, whatever. I know I have it this way so that I can use it everywhere. end of story.

Mine's easy. I was chatting with someone who needed some advice, and I didn't have much to give. So I mostly just offered hilariously over-the-top prank ideas to relieve stress. She was of Native American heritage and likened me to Coyote. It's too flattering a comparison to give up.

Mine means ghost and is reserved for things I'm invested enough to make contact with but know i won't end up doing much with.
Ghosts don't exist, after all. I doubt grandma who spent most of her later life sitting on the couch and died the other day miraculously gained such immense knowledge of physics, calculus and all sorts of universal data that she would be able to hover her incorporeal 'body' in accordance to the massive speed of the universe and its bits for long enough to physically manipulate the world around her to create a banging noise before the earth races through her and her floating ass is sitting somewhere in space.
The fate of all things giving up physical attributes.

The names, Blaze, I like fire. Thing is, if you can't control fire or if you let the wind PLAY with fire it doesn't listen to anyone. When i was little, I burned down just a few twigs and branches, then I got bored and started burning bigger thing: saplings, little trees, a few toys. Now those matches are taken away and all i have left is this name.

Now I will always hear you with the voice of Blaze from the Sonic games. I used to play with fire also, except I always had a bucket of water next to me just in case.

About my username: If you haven't figured it out on your own, then let me adjust it a little... Super Tails. The super version of Tails from the Sonic games... I could never make Tails transform in Sonic 2, but I read an issue of a Sonic The Hedgehog comic(Archie version) and I saw Tails wearing a cape and just acting like a boss... I read that issue on the same week I picked my username for my email so it was an easy choice. I was 19 when I received my laptop as a birthday present(even though I paid for it :x) and it was only a matter of weeks before I stumbled onto my favorite comic(Bittersweet Candy Bowl :love: ).

@Blaze: *whispers* Don't worry I was kidding earlier. I don't actually judge people by their names and a lot of people I know like experimenting with fire so you don't think I was looking down on you or something :).
