How did you get your username?

[Nuno]

I won mine in a lottery!

 

[RezzieThaRapper]

I'm a songwriter and have quite a few songs released online... google Rezzie The Rue if you'd like to find me... I take up like the first 4 pages lmao

I planned on using my real name, but Devante Bennett just seems lame to me.. lol

 

[Miihoo]

I got the name from the manga Bakuman. There is a character called "Miho", I thought the name was really cute and thus used it here. However, Miho was taken, so I ended up with Miihoo.

...It looks Korean as a result.

 

[liductan]

hey, this thread is interesting...lets see...I am lazy and decide that the easiest way no one would have my username is to combine my first and last name together.
simple and easy..

 

[kidopitz27]

my username is like the story of my life hahahahaha

the KIDO is my nickname i don't know who came with that nickname but the story goes like when i was a kid they called me that because i always eat Kid-o biscuit

the PI - came from my childhood friend because some of my classmates are teasing me "Joe Kido" from digimon (i like digimon though ) and they added the PI and thank god it went ok i don't want to be called Joe Kido for the rest of my life

the TZ - came from my crush when i was on high school because she pronounce my nickname like this "KIDOPIE" and she taught that i was a bit girly and she said that i don't look like a pie and added the TZ

the 27 is my birth date

 

[Koyomi_Araragi]

I chose my username because I felt the same way as Araragi (bakemonogatari) in that time

 

[artistRainwater]

artistRainwater is actually suppose to be just "Rainwater," which is my artist-pen name. Rainwater came to be when I was writing a short story called "Rain Water." Then one year, Rob Thomas wrote a song called "Ever the Same" and one of the lyrics sung: "We were free like water, flowing down under the warmth of the sun..." and the phrase "free like water" hit a nerve with my first short story "Rain Water." Plus, I love the rain. I don't find it depressing, but rather cleansing, washing away the world of all its turmoil and sadness. So, "Rainwater" became my name. And plus, my real is kinda hard to pronounce (as are most Asian names, lol!) :P

 

[JuniperD]

My username is my first name and my last initial.

Usually though for these types of sites, I use the username "mossbraker" which is a song from a broken social scene album that enjoy.

 

[AspiringManga]

I got my username because I love manga and hope to achieve a publishing in Japan one of these days. I always thought I was meant to be born Japanese, as I love discipline and structure, and most of all I love the diversity and art of the culture.

 

[Hippo]

I was playing around facebook, until I clicked an app. "Which animal are you?"
So I got "Hippo", and my friend kept calling me Hippo, or in swedish. So I liked that name, and instead of using my real name, I started to use "Hippo". And everyone is calling me Hippo now. :3

 

[AshCandyPop]

Ashley is a nickname I use when I go out derived from my ex's real nickname (Ash) and mine (Ey).

Candypop is a phrase that kind of struck my mind while making a user name.

 

[SharkBait]

I guess mine is easy, I was watching Free! anime and then Rin is like a shark and then theres Haruka, and then the fandom seemed to just suggest Sharkbait for their pairing canon name, its kind of fitting...

 

[Zezima]

I was surprised this name wasn't taken. I used to play runescape and if any of you guys played that game you would know who zezima is. That guy is a legend! So I decided to choose this username.

 

[liferaftforone]

i was having a conversation with an ex friend, and i said i was sad that i could only change myself, and that i couldnt fix it when someone was going to get themselves hurt, so in my mind i was in a life raft with only room for one

my usernames change a lot, on other sites i had names like dizzy_enigma, ichigo_hime, _nightmare_child
Dr_death_defying, Awkward_killjoy,Awkward_elf
yup,, pretty sad

 

[BeyondAnother]

"Beyond" from "Beyond the Boundary" that anime

Originally it was going to be "BeyondOhAmethyst" because Amethyst is a type of gem meaning "strength" and "healing", and beyond as in it has a deeper meaning a deeper strength...

 

[dee02]

dee is my nickname and i using it for all my usernames..it's short and simple.. ^_^

 

[Mermit]

Mermaid + Hermit = Mermit

Our ocean is the lifeblood of Earth, covering more than 70 percent of the planet's surface, driving weather, regulating temperature, and ultimately supporting all living organisms. Throughout my life, the ocean has been a vital source of sustenance, transport, growth, and inspiration. Yet for all of our reliance on the ocean, 95 percent of this realm remains unexplored, unseen by human eyes. The origin of my name remains much a mystery as the sea, thus I have come to name myself Mermit.

 

[CaptainBravo]

I got by my username by witnessing the greatest and most awesome anime character ever.
I just hope his awesomeness will one day rub off on me..

- In the words of Michael Scott, "That's what she said."

 

[Sakura Saluja]

Well... I've been using "Sakura" as a username on more forums so it finally became my nickname and got to add Saluja (one of my fav char's surname) cuz it was already taken

 

[NibbPower]

I got my username from a group I made on Steam. Originally, I was going to use it for advertisement but then I found out that not many people know what Steam is. So then I gave up on that and use it as a username/nickname of something.
Nibb is another way I like to say noob / nub. And Power is just means that its strong. So that's how I got NibbPower meaning Noobs are winners / powerful.
