mega thread Why you chose your user name.

[DND 2,355]

Basically my fursona + plus a stupid name I gave for cats. MEKITTY is basically how It's translated. (Cause' I'm kawaii-desu) :3

 

I was a lonely child drawing Zelda kitties and 3rd gen Pokemon, okay?

[An Old Head 4,816]

When I first found out about these forums, I wanted to make a name for an OC (though creativity failed me and all I ended up with was Sky Star :|). Then I had found Quilava's thread about recruiting people for a Starter Pokémon group (which, sadly didn't take off). I stuck with Bayleef for a while, but the name just didn't suit me.

 

The reason I went with Lugia was it is almost my identity now. About a year ago, I played a private server for MapleStory called ChickenMS (which went through multiple name changes, finally ending on AncientMS). I was severely dedicated to this server, and could easily spend 10+ hours a day on it (summer vacation ftw :3). A couple days in, I had the urge to help people, so I stopped playing the server and would just stand around trying to help anyone who had problems. Sitting around Ch.1 Henesys (the main hangout area for those who don't know) became my spot and I soon made a lot of friends. At this point, not only was I known for helping anyone who needed it, but for my..."questionable" appearance. I had tried to actually make a replica of Lugia in MapleStory, which ended up me (a male character) using female eyes and a hair style that (even though it WAS MALE) still looked girly. This also led people to thinking I was a girl and everyone always reacted the same way when I told them I was a guy >.>. Eventually I applied for GM (Game Moderator/Master) and was eventually accepted. Being a part of that server was the best experience I've ever had with a game. Everyday I would log on and I would have a whole friends list on, I knew a ton of people, and everyone knew about me and my "dedication". *I was also the leader of the guild Pokémon there and would only accept people who had Pokémon names as well...which is what started the Pokémon revolution there, but that's a different story :3*

 

No way! I have a question for you - what was the consensus of ExtaliaMS in the AncientMS community? And that scandal with Jay stealing everyone's donations - was that legitimate? I was a pretty active member of Extalia before switching to this forum, see

[Smarts 1,622]

Mine is a bit of a story. Before I joined up here I had an account on another website. After about four years sticking with my name I asked my friends what they thought of the new name SmartyPants. They agreed that it sounded better than my old name, so I had my username changed to SmartyPants. It wasn't long after changing it that I remembered SmartyPants is the name of Twilight's doll. I thought it was a funny coincidence. So, I decided to stick with the name whenever I joined a website. That's why I chose SmartyPants here.

[Big Brown 26]

I just chose this name cause it's the horse that won the Kentucky Derby a few years back and I actually won some money off of him.

[Sapphire Quill 1,186]

I've had way too many usernames, to start is "Neo Bazooka" Well I Liked the name at First, It just didn't Suit my Personality, It didn't Reflect well on myself, so I changed to "Shimmering Honour" That didn't hit off well with people so I Changed to "Sapphire Quill" Soon After, I loved the name, and it did Suit me, But Well I didn't Feel a Great Connection with it as I Didn't Create it, So I saw That Eeveelution Spots were Opening up, So I Took "Leafeon" For a couple of days, I just saw that Eeveelutions weren't as Popular as they used to be, I wasn't getting Reconized as well, and Just Didn't Suit me, So I changed to "Luminescent Dawn" As I have Now, I Love the Username as I did Create this, and it's held close t my heart, as why I chose it, But Well, I've been wanting to change it, as It's a Bit bland, So Tomorrow I will have another name, Which Will be my Final name, and No One will know Until then, not Even I.
Cheers <3

[BronyMielonyPL 0]

My username is BronyMielonyPL, beacuse my friend's nickname while playing Gun Mayhem was Dżony Mielony, so I was thinking about my nickname on this site. And I created BronyMielonyPL. PL is beacuse I am fom Poland and I wanted to Grammar Nazis know that.

[HunterScars 505]

[Scholar Fillisari 4]

Well for my username it started its root when i was playing kill-zone 2 a month or two ago (having become a Brony in September last year) and i was amazed by the main antagonist of the first two games Scholar Vissari. Now i wanted to reference him in forums I participate in but I needed to make it more Appropriate (becuase this is a MLP so in my opinion the name has to be Ponied) name so I tried to find something that would rhyme and guess what i had a good time doing it, but I still couldn't find a funny way to do it Then i thought What about Scholar Fillisari?, I then proceeded to laugh my head off and it stuck.

[Foreigner And Lover 207]

Because Sexy Foreign Lover doesn't roll off the tongue like Foreigner and Lover. I actually got the idea after my friend mentioned his girlfriend in Canada.

[ReverseFaller 2,483]

I would've chosen one of my usual usernames, but I wanted to try something different for this website. So I thought of a band I liked (Falling in Reverse), and I just switched up the name. Thus, ReverseFaller was created. 

[Scootaloodle 1,622]

Well at the time I was a huge Rainbow Dash fan: and I recalled that time when Rainbow Dash said “dangers my middle name” and combined Rainbow Danger Dash with my first name and Asherdangerdash was the result.

[MLPForums Phanact 1,374]

My username is literally just my name. I'm so boring I know but at least it's simple and easy to remember. I don't really like adding numbers and things to usernames but that's just me.

[Eureka 1,119]

Now I'm going to explain Fondue For Two.

 

So, recently I found out that Cory Monteith died. I was pretty sad because I know a bunch of Glee fangirls. I've never really had the chance to watch any of Glee which kind of disappointed me. So, I overheard some girls talking about Glee and the word "Fondue For Two" were said. So, I decided to make my username Fondue For Two, for sort of, in memory of Cory Monteith.

[Proton 565]

My first username here was Proton, which I chose because I thought it was kinda unique. Months after that, I for some reason began reading the Bionicle Serials from BionicleStory.com, and remembered that Makuta Teridax is essentially made out of a substance called Antidermis. And well, here I am.

[Seldon 12]

I was reading the Foundation trilogy by Asimov when I joined the forums. Hari Seldon is one of the main characters. I think "Seldon" would be a good pony name.

[XXVYNIKK 145]

This right here is the reason byhind my username. I have used it for many years and to this day, I remember the feeling of realizing just how Awesome Freedan the Dark Knight is. Illusion of Gaia is also still one of my favorite games off all times after Megaman X.

[Nerdy Luigi 2,065]

Because it's Gamer + Pony (PON3)

That is really it. And it also is pretty cool as well as an obscure and slightly incorrect reference to Vinyl Scratch.

[Ihei 713]

I thought of it since there was actually a pony in G3 named Minty Wintergreen, who was my favorite character back then. I reformed her and now here.

[Broseph 215]

Mine is essentially a mix of the word 'Bro' and my actual name.

It's a pretty boring story, I know, but it seemed clever at the time and now I just use it with everything

[MarbellaLotus 17]

This is my username everywhere.  I came up with it when I started playing Guild Wars.  I didn't know Marbella was a city in spain >.< and I get asked if I ever been there, haha.  The lotus is from Rock Lee from Naruto.

[Champion RD92 8,658]

RD = Rainbow Dash

92 = the year I was born

 

The inspiration for the title of Champion came from Pokemon. I love the music in the Champion battle:

[DJShy 873]

My reason for my username, DJ Shy-3, is a fairly simple one. I liked the idea of becoming a DJ, My favorite pony is Fluttershy, and DJ Tr-3 didn't seem to fit the ticket for me.

[just ignore me 86]

I got my username from an archery target me and my friend made. We drew a face with a squid mouth, curly mustache, goatee, mullet, horns, and a turtle body. We named him Steven the Turtle Demon. The character has stuck with us through the years as an on running joke and I just thought it would make a good username .  

[idonotreallycare 94]

I... don't really know. I was thinking of usernames, and this was one of the first I thought of and I stuck with it. But where my mind thought of it I don't know.
