mega thread Why you chose your user name.

[DrUnderachiever 25]

Well, it's kind of an oxymoron- "doctor" and "underachiever"- but more than anything, it's a reference to how self-depreciating I can be.

[Jack Baker 698]

I wanted a name that would stick out on the forums, and I thought Twisted Genius would be the perfect name. So there, that's my story.

[BlueHoodedHero 101]

I picked this user name because Soren happens to be my favorite Fire Emblem character of all time and I also named my ponysona after him. ^u^

[Thrashy 2,800]

Based on the name I gave my ponysona, who represents my real-life role as a bassist. I was considering using "Bassline" or "Lownote" but Lowline sounded more appealing.

[Unpredictable Ranger 696]

Named myself Fluffle Puff after the cotton-candy-fluffy mare who became Queen Chrysalis's fave pony. No other ponies has th same unique design as Fluffle Puff!

 

But seriously, I should have just gone back to my Steffa M. A. Larsondrews (an OC/MLP:FiM guest pony) ponysona.

[Umbral Noir 1,556]

I'm called DJ-BRONI3 because Vinyl Scratch (DJ PON3) is one of my favourite ponies. Therefore, I thought it only natural to use a variation of her name as my username!

[Azaxx 111]

I've used this username for around 6-7 years now.
Created it after simply putting some syllables together, it stuck and I kept it. Nothing overly special like everyone else's :c

[Lisa 5,553]

I created this usernames to represent Aphrodite as Princess Cadence.

 

Aphrodite (in Greek mythology) is the goddess of Love. (and beauty)

In MLP, Princess Cadence is the princess of Love.

 

Both are obviously very similar.

 

So that is why I've created this name.

 

 

~Aphrodite

[Nightraxx 130]

AS for myself, Nightraxx has been my DJ Artist Name for many Years now. When i thought of a name, i wanted it to have something to do with dark and music.

[TopazReshiram 26]

I picked this username because Topaz is my birth stone and Reshiram is my favorite Pokemon of all time. On top of that it just sounded very nice.

[Mr. White 71]

I chose Pathogen because, simply enough, it's a mixture of Science related (I love science) and quite cool, if I say so myself. Besides that, there really isn't any deeper meaning behind it than that.

[Luna's Husbando 61]

I chose to go with Luna's Husbando because Luna is my waifu and I want to be with her. I have been madly in love with her for about sixteen months now and figured I'd go with this name to express my feelings for her. 

 

 

Horray for virginity!

 

[angrysalamence 49]

Why did I use this user name? Well thats pretty easy, because I used it as my Minecraft user name! Pretty simple if you ask me. XD

[squareyes 153]

When I was a kid, Me and my brother and Sister thought it would be a cool idea if we made our own TV show thing on the internet (we didn't do anything to achieve this as we would have had no idea what to do) and as a companies name we thought squareyes. This was made up from the saying that if you watch TV for too long you'll get square eyes.

 

Only recently I thought the username 'camybish' needed to be changed to something more original. So I changed it to 'squareyes'.

[Paianis 489]

Back when I was 7 years old, I had a fantasy character named Waspie.

Back when I was 11 years old, I began socialising on the internet with the nick, Patlap.

Shortly afterwards (2009), I realised both sucked so I combined the two!

 

I have tried to put 'Paspie' as my signature in official documentation, sadly my parents went mad and I had to settle with my real name. And they had to rewrite the rest of the document!

[shinelegends 13]

shinelegends was a game a close friend, my little brother and I created when we where all in highschool. It was a table top game similar to D&D, none of us where working at the time but wanted to play D&D so we made up our own rules, characters, items, etc etc and played. It was fun for awhile but after highschool my close friend and I lost touch (I graduated 6 years ago, geeze time flies!). I still use the name for various things, SN, my XBLA is shinelegends if any of you wonderful ponies wanna add me I am currently playing Defiance!

[Yamato 1,348]

BECAUSE JIMMY CARTER, yes.

 

Actually, the former president has kinda been a joke between my friends and I for a while now. If I remember correctly, it started when me and a couple of guys who were up to no good friends were coming up with this idea for a really stupid talk show. Former president Carter was to be our first guest (through my suggestion). Since then, I've become mildly obsessed with Mr. Carter, the peanut farmer with a degree in nuclear engineering whose first car was a 1948 Studebaker Commander. I really don't know why, I mean, he really didn't do anything. Maybe that's why I like him...

[SirRedNulwich 13]

Sir Red Nulwich
Sir Nulwich = Chris Luniw if you mix up the letters (my real name)
Red is a nickname since I love red and I am colorblind and can only see red 100% clearly.

[Boop 102]

Probably because my username is the most cutest verb on the internet.

I can't see any of you guys disagreeing. It's silly, fun and it's a playful name to have.

[Thunderchild 875]

This has been my nick for as long as I've been posting on discussion boards-the HMS Thunderchild was the warship that battled the tripods in H.G Wells' The War Of The Worlds. It took one of them out too-before the others blew it up with their heat rays.

[Winona the Dog 1,984]

I chose it after my favorite character in adventure time. I honestly love Lady Rainicorn's design and I find her voice and accent to be quite arousing lol. I have bigger crush on her than any other animated character.

 

Besides how many female character's in a syndicated cartoon network have you seen a character get pregnant?

[silverreverb 129]

my username is a variant of another username I use a lot. I chose this one because it's one that I use for games since it sounds like it could be an actual name, given a more fantasy setting.

 

considering the naming conventions that seem apparent in mlp, it felt fitting.

[Ghost1O4 0]

My story isn't all too unique, but I thought I'd give it anyway. My name comes from my x-box live account I picked in 2009. I was really good at sneaking in games with my friends and I thought it made me sound like a ghost, and it really sounded like a good name. the 1O4 is a number from a spartan in the Halo universe, Fred. One of Master Chief's squad mates and totally epic spartan. So, where as some people choose a name from the series, or a pony, some people name it after some other things too

[Justin ZW 396]

I picked mine because I'm beyond using aliases, so I went with my name plus the initials of the site that I haunt the most often, Zelda Wiki. I feel like aliases are a thing I've grown out of ever since I turned about 18 or 19.
