mega thread Why you chose your user name.

[Luna'sLoyalist 0]

Why I have my username is because after reading past sins I grew a like for Luna and it sort of stuck.Plus I used it for my youtube account name.

[Luna the Great of all the Russias 2,983]

115Predator has been a name I've used since 2011. The number 115 is a reference to Ununpentium which plays a major role in COD zombies.

 

Predator was my ID from 2009 to 2011 and I chose it simply because it sounds cool in my opinion.

[~Rule 63~ Lyeco 527]

I got my username because of my first social game, meez back in 2007. I was going to use my real name, but it was taken . So I think this out by randomness.

I kept a tradition of calling myself that. But I made other versions as long it has this specific username .

[GreyScholar 1,584]

For couple reasons:

1. because of my main character

2. because my ideas

involving Equestria's past, of Celestia Luna, of Nightmare Moon, of Discord, of the founding of Equestria.

[Lost Profile 644]

Back when I was villan97.... I chose that name when I was young... I always liked being the bad guy so I chose the name villain97 (97 being my lucky number)

 

However, on my first registration... I spelt villain wrong... And so it just stuck...

 

 

I'm now known as Doppelrac, this is funny how I got this name... At Bronycon, I was sitting in the loung at the Hilton... Then someone came up to me and asked, "are you solrac?"... Apparently I look like solrac (yaplap)... And one guy came up with the name Doppelrac... It was funny...

My friend let me uses his Minecraft account and it was "CreamMellow" I bought a account later on, and named it MellowCream! And thus, MellowCream was born!

[Moonlight Fire 20]

Well, everybody's story on here is a lot more interesting than mine. Um well I used to read the Warriors series (yes, the cat books) and I had made myself a Warrior name which was Moonlight Fire. Then when I made an account on here I thought I might as well use that name.

 

Besides, it sounds cool :3

Warrior Cats fan myself, my deviantArt username actually being the name of my cat Fellmoon a former rogue turned loner searching for a place called his own what the plan him being a clan warrior eventually when roleplaying him.

[Katskratch 59]

I've always had a cat motif around me as a person, I tend to act like a cat at times, they're my favorite domestic animal, and most of my internet usernames have involved the word somehow, usually spelled 'kat' because why not. I was thinking of possible artist's names and some of the ones I thought of paid homage to my long history of cat stuff, this one included. I eventually settled on this one because it sounded the coolest. In addition, after I settled on Katskratch I realized it also quasi-referenced MLP (Vinyl Scratch) so it would work well as a name within the fandom, and it also thematically makes me similar to deadmau5. So yeah, the name ties together a bunch of things I like very well. 

[Hyper Tumble 1,483]

I chose my name because I was my Pony Generated Name and I thought it would make for a very good username. It was this or Silver Charger, and I just like this better.

[Johnny Canuck 12]

Because Johnny Cancuk is a famous, Canadian Superhero who started out as a political cartoon and because I'm a Canucks Fan. 

[Mandyrobin 4]

I came up with my current username by taking my nickname and a portion of my surname then putting them together. My other current online username, Maxanda, I came up with during my Kingdom Hearts fan kick. It was the name I came up with for my Nobody OC.

[pictureperfect 3]

i named mine after one of my charries becuase i somehow was thinking i bet noone named their charrie pictureperfect i thought it was funny and weird how noone took the name or made a charrie that went with it!^^ i guess most people wouldn't use the name cuase it sounded to normal for a pony who is a model and designer LOL

[Lil'Cinnamon 1,587]

My username comes with a story.. Not a big one.. but I shall explain of where the username "Lil'Cinnamon" originates.

 

Well, for one, I came up with it in around 2007 or 2008, way before bronies, and when I was into the characters of a certain company.

 

So... I am sure you have all heard of Hello Kitty, haven't you? Pretty popular character, but almost NO ONE knows what company owns that character. That company is called Sanrio, and I am sure some of you out there would be familiar with what that company does.

 

For those that don't that company makes lots of cute animal characters and puts them on merchandise, and I have liked some of the characters since I do like cute things like that, I have always like that kind of thing, it's just who I am, and is one of the reasons why I do like My Little Pony, (even though I have many many more reasons for that but that would go elsewhere.)

 

So.. To my username, well I was on this forum for that company, It seemed it was pretty official, but I'm not sure. I'm sure it still exists today but I don't go on it anymore. But the site was called "SanrioTown".

 

I was registered on that site with my older username as the one I use here wasn't really created yet, and a cool thing about that site is you can change your display name (I think you could only do it like once in a certain amount of time)

 

So I've gone through some name changed before on there....

 

And I also kind of wish you could upload your own avatar on there but you weren't able to, you could only pick from the gallery.

 

But one day I was kind of in a mood for a certain character from the Sanrio Franchise, because of these little animated sprites that looked cute. This one isn't my favorite character but I kind of wanted a new look with that character. (Some of you smart guys might know what character I am talking about already. xD)

 

The new look I wanted a new username, and avatar, and I had made my own signature for it.

 

For those who don't know the character's name was "Cinnamoroll" (You can search google images to see what he looks like) and was this dog like thing that everyone thought was a bunny, because of the ears, those who searched google images would know what I mean. xD

 

So yeah, I started to think of a username that would fit that character... It took a long time, "Lil'Cinnamon" came into my mind a few times but I was like "Nahh... that sounds weird" and then I ended up settling with it because it was the best I could come up with. xD

 

So that is how my username was born, then I joined another site and was like.. "Ya know what, I really like that username and it is better then my last one, so I am going to stick with it" so I joined with this username and it stuck, and this will be my username that I will keep, and now is my main brony username.

 

Why is it my main brony username? Because some friends of mine thought that "Cinnamon" would be a great name for a pony, so I thought I would use it as a main pony username, so I did and it just fits perfectly well.

 

So there is my uninteresting story, and really long post. xD

 

That is the origin of my username, and I guess the story was much longer than I thought it would be. xD

[Rayalicious 435]

if the name was available i would take it  it would be : rayray very casual name right?

but why rayray? ive always  evrything fictional (that has lasper weapons and stuff like that)  and i used to take alot of moving light pictures using my laser and loved playing with light rays during physics class and stiff like that (dont wana brag but got a 1st prize at my countrys science fair ) (if u want i can post pics just ask u wont be dispointed) so ended up here

[The Blades Shadow 444]

I made mine because of the fact that it's my OC's name, simple as that... If you can't tell I was feeling super creative! (Massive sarcasm)

[Commissar Alexer 763]

I have rather a small collection of usernames i use. This one is simply the german word for Private. I often choose for usernames military ranks which are alwasy in german.

Other names i often use, if possible is : Alexer, Alxois, Alexey.

 

I like kinda like them.

[carrick sparkle 15]

i choose my username because i wanted a brave like name did you know carrick actually stands for rock and was named after this rock that now over the years expanded and became a town i actually lived there -_-  but anyway i just took my town name and combine it with sparkle (not after twilight sparkle-____-) anyway thanks for listening still i feel my name is weird and may change it in the future

[Mand'alor Dash 2,224]

Mandalore Dash is the name I use on pretty much every brony site these days. It's based on a major plot point that occurs near the middle of one of my favorite fanfics. Same goes for my avatar, which I had drawn by a buddy of mine who's also a fan of the story.

[--Eve-- 351]

(I swear I've already posted in this thread)

My old username, Starvision, was the name of my rarely seen OC, that has been absent from anything for awhile. My new username is similar so I thought it wouldn't be too much of a change. It mainly refers to the Starship currently set as my Avatar,(USS Stargazer - NCC 2893 - Constellation Class - Captain: Picard). I plan to eventually create my own Starvision class starship to go along with it, but that will be for another day.

[Sincerity 9]

It's a characteristic I really appreciate in people, and it also happens to be one of my middle names! I guess that's not tremendously creative.

[Castle Bleck 19,334]

I named myself after the Anti-Villain TV Trope.

 

Many, if not the vast majority, of the characters who are listed as such are among the most interesting/sympathetic/etc.

[Solar Cloud 493]

Name of my OC. He doesn't have much of a backstory and I don't know what he looks like so until I can get someone to help me come up with a design(that's wishful thinking) all I have is this name.

[Jack Spades 162]

My username is both the name of my main OC and my internet alias. It's also the name I wish I ad in real life. But it'd be weird to my friends and family.

[Krys9 456]

I chose my username solely based on the Rainbow Factory grimdark fanfic. It's the only one I really like. What got me into it was the song by Glaze under the same name. :3
