mega thread Why you chose your user name.

[Moog the Kvlt 1,460]

My name comes from the usual name that I keep in there, Moog (Moog comes from synthesizers), and I mixed it with one of my all time favorite albums, Blackwater Park by Opeth.

[Batbrony 16,055]

Batman is and always has been my favorite superhero.  I watched Batman: The Animated Series as well as Justice League as a child, fell in love with the Nolan movies, and before joining MLP Forums the only forum I'd ever been on was the Batman: Arkham City forum, where I made quite an impact as batcatforever (it was seriously awesome, great community and Rocksteady actually chose one of my suggested achievement names/descriptions in an official suggestion thread as one of the achievements in the final game), so when I came here, I figured that I wanted my username to reflect my love of Batman and MLP.  After a few minutes of thought, I finally settled on Batbrony; reflected exactly what I wanted, has a nice ring to it, and I've stuck with it ever since.

[Vinyl Rave 67]

I chose Vinyl Rave because Vinyl Scratch was my favorite character, besides rainbow, dash at the time. I got the rave part because I used to go to a ton of rave parties. I decided to stop because my parents were tired of taking me all the way to L.A. To go to raves. Plus I was going to bed at 4 in the mourning and my grades were failing. 1 year later I found MLP and saw the character Vinyl Scratch. I instantly loved this show and the community. I decided to make my profile Vinyl Rave after how much fun I had at raves.

[Unpredictable Ranger 696]

You're failing your grades and it makes you mourning? I am sorry to hear that, Vinyl Rave. :C

 

Anyway that name sounds great! Inspires me for another username but not sure if I should yet.

[XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX 777]

The reason why I chose this name is because it felt a bit more original than past names while retaining a part of my original online title.  Besides, I wanted to keep my original handle separate so as to prevent long time friends from finding out my secret passion. Thus, Accellerant was born, a side which only pertains to ponies and arts while my original handle is used for everything else (primarily gaming and relations.)

[Proton 565]

Was desperate searching for cool, unused usernames all through the internet, and in the end, I founf Proton, its cool, uncommon and very unique :3

[RegentShy 5]

Um, I decided to go with this name because since high school, Regent is used in a lot of my usernames including as part of my PSN.  I then added Shy to the end of it because well, you know.  I think it works, right?

[D1SC0RD 987]

Well! If I remember correctly, the original username I wanted was Apple Bloom. However, since that was already taken... I went with Appl3 Bl00m. Then the user Apple Bloom said something about the similarities of our names and I thought he implied "You better change yours right now because Apple Bloom is MY THING!" (he's a sweetheart of course, but being a noob, I thought I was already at risk of being unwelcome). So I changed it to d1sc0rd and then someone else said "It'd look better if it were in all caps". And thus, we get D1SC0RD.

 

I've been thinking about changing it though... we'll see.

[Thrackerzod- 4]

 http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=UwmxUV7Nris

Because Thrakorzod is very different from other parodies of Sweetie Bell and I like when things are different in big ways. Also because Sweetie Bell is my favorite CQC
character

[SoundRaptured 139]

I really don't know. probably has something to do with my love of music (I could have made it music rapture) and also my love for the city of Rapture. kudos to those who get it. Also you could always say that sound is used as an adjective like "that's a sound idea" and say that this rapture is sound. or that the music is raptured. you could have a philosophical debate on my name XD

[fly 10]

i would like to say that it is because "fly" can be used as a noun, a verb, and an adjective. but i didn't think of that until after i chose it. this website is the first one i've used this username on before. i originally chose it because i'd never seen a website that let you have a name as short as three characters, so i thought fly would make a cool name. then i realized how the word can be used in different ways, which made me like it even more.

[Shadowgirl87 153]

I called myself shadow-girl because I always sneak up and scare people without them notice me. I'm always quiet and I don't make much noise(sheesh! for fat girl, I never make much noise).

 

So I'm like a shadow and I admit I like sneaking up on people. And like I said before, "without them notice me...," I guess I'm invisible to people even my family.

 

Oh yea, 87 is my birth year. XD

[heG allaphsE 28]

Chose Dj Yexus because I make electronic music and there arent many results for yexux on google so i took took the name and yeah.

[SwigglySwiggly 358]

I came up with this name because I wanted something original and unique. Get my name out there, you know. And it's also a typo it was meant to be Squiggly now Swiggly but still... I liked the way it turned out.

[BrainyBrony 252]

I just became a Brony and I don't mean to brag, but I'm rather Brainy! Plus, it rhymes and I like rhymes. Also, it was the only thing I could think of without having to think too much. 

[~Luminiferous Ether~ 107]

Physics bru, It is truly one of my favourite arts, although Chem is another great art.

 

Even though it has been fundamentally disproved, tis still cool.

[The Man 11]

Hey, I got some advice for you little buddy, before you point your finger you should know that I'm the man.

I'm the man and you're the man and he's the man as well, so you can point that finger up your ass.

[Okie Dokie Lokie 24]

I originally wanted to be called "Pinkie Pie" then "Pikamena Diane Pie" but both usernames were taken so I though "Okie Dokie Lokie" would be cool cause that's a phrase that she always uses lol.

[repsol rave 2,963]

[Diamond* 531]

Because I love Luna soo much, so I wanted to have Luna in my name, but also, if Fluttershy's Squee is cute, then Princess Luna's squee would be awesome.

[Shymantic 48]

^{Shymantic= Shy + Romantic.}

 

^{Because I am shy and I am a hopeless romantic.}

^{This was really the best thing I could come up with. Eeyup.}

[Toastie 110]

I picked Toastie because it's the internet nickname that I've been carrying around with me for about 4 years.

 

As for how I got the name I got WoW and couldn't decide what to pick my 1st character would be called, however at the time I was eating a cheese and ham toastie so I just named it after that due to lack of ideas, would not change it now though 

[DaReaper 1,945]

Theres only one certainly in life and thats death. I embrace it and dont fear it and the grim reaper just looks awesome now come on

[repsol rave 2,963]

repsol because i own a aprilia rs 50 with the bodywork of an honda rs 125 in the original repsol racing colours.

 

rave because i love going to big hardstyle/hardcore party's and rave my bucking ass off!

[NothingIsEverything 1,248]

My name is something that I came up with on the bus. I was listening to a song by Death, "Lack Of Comprehension", and thought, "I'll just go with that". But i did not have enough space for that, so I thought of my next favorite Death song, which is "The Philosopher". I was too lazy to come up with anything original at the time.
