mega thread Why you chose your user name.

[Dreambiscuit 10,012]

I went with Dreambiscuit as a derivation of the user name I had on another pony site. I have a dreamy personality and live in a dream world, hence 'Dream,' and the 'biscuit' part sounded whimsical and squishy, which is also like me. 

[heavens-champion 1,905]

To reference the religion I grew up in.

[BennyBoy 21]

I chose my username because earlier in 9'th grade, we did a reading of Romeo and Juliet, and I got to be Benvolio. Of course, I had to make his voice really scratchy and kind of scary sounding, but it worked out nonetheless. "BennyBoy" just became a nickname for the character that I liked playing as. Same as there was Tyblit the Tablet because someone couldn't pronounce Tybalt's name. 

 

That, and Juliet was never played by a girl. Not once. It was always Gabe who played as Juliet, and another boy in the other class. Also, a dude played Mrs. Capulet as well.

 

9'th grade English was fun. 

[FirePuppy 735]

I chose the username seen to the left because I thought it would be a cool one, unlike my regular name, which is super dull.

[twiia 1,843]

First Leafy, as a not so obvious variation of Shadifern.

Icy Wind, because I like weather...

Fire Twii, because Fire Twilight looked cool, and because Twilight is my third favorite pony.

[Kozmos 129]

I came with my username because I was tired of using my Fimfiction name as my Internet name, and Kozmos sounds better than TheBronyaroundthecorner

[Anonymous Old User Who Has Left 599]

I chose mine because I wanted something that would stick out. I took the concept of numbers in names from PON3 and Deadmau5, and then applied them to my existing pen name. Thus "Shabb3r" was born.

 

I had previously had the alias of BronyNo786, but later decided to change it. Unfortunately DeviantART only allows you to change your username if you are a CORE member 

 

To give it a cool, eye-catching style, I turned it into a logo using Scary Gylphs and Nice Characters (aka Skrillex's font)

[Emiko Gale 199]

I've had this username since I was 16...Emiko was the name of a cat girl my ex friend drew for me...I decided to write a fanfiction about her but thought she needed a surname. I decided on Gale...Because I felt a Japanese name with a Japanese surname would be boring.

 

Then I decided to use Emiko Gale as my permanent username to make signing up for websites easier.

[Scrubbed user 3,416]

If translated from Dovahzul to English, you get Night Blue. Middle or mid doesn't exist in Dovahzul, so Night Blue it is. It goes with the avatar.

[Luminance 2,186]

For the longest time my first original name was Miatapony. Then that name changed to Midnight Glow, a placebo for my OC that never actually came to suffice.

 

Now it's all for Twilight Sparkle and harmonious music so I've combined the two into Melodic Twilight. I also wanted to keep with the "M" naming convention of my previous names too as a reminder of who I was.

[rcollinz13 428]

My username is an amalgamation of my first and last name. I decided to include the '13' after having many websites tell me that rcollinz was already taken. Additionally, I changed the 's' in Collins for the same reason.

[Prince Golden Lotus 166]

It's quite a story, really.  I just remember when I was quite young, I loved the name Jason, so I just kinda made that my shtick.  First it was Jason Stilton (for no particular reason other than that mouse guy), then Jason Martin (for no particular reason other than those mischievous suite twins), which I stuck with for a while, and then finally I realized that wasn't very unique and changed it.  I wanted to find something that really represented me as a whole, and I tried Darklight for one minute before somebody suggested Darklyte. So there you go.

[Ethan Tran 950]

well i guess it's my pseudonym)

Ethan - was the main character's name in a game called "Condemned: Criminal Origins" (Ethan Thomas)

Tran - was the surname of the main antagonist, from a movie "The Fast and the Furious" (Johnny Tran)

[El Duderino 879]

My username is a reference to The Big Lebowski, which is one of my favorite movies. 

 

It's from this scene:

 

Not only do I love that movie, but there is a background Pony based off The Dude, so it's a pony name too.

 

 

I used that character as my avatar before I made an OC.

[Kiri 7,290]

Quartz Aegis was fun while it lasted, but I got bored of it. Lady Kiriness is my new artist alias, so I'm sticking to that now.

 

Originally, it was "Kiriness", as I love the mythological Kirin, and am a female, so I thought it was a good name. Unfortunately, someone on Twitter already had that name, so I just tacked on "Lady" and it stuck!

[NightmareLuna800 1,383]

I chose my username because, for one, I am a big fan of Luna. Two, because I like nightmare ponies. And three, because I like nightmarish Luna's. XD

[Chrylestia600 1,307]

I chose mine because it's a cross between Celestia and Chrysalis, who are two of my absolute favorite characters in MLP. The numbers are just kinda random, haha.

[PinkiePie97 913]

Laziness. When I was setting up my IntenseDebate account (which was the first site I used this name on), I didn't feel much like thinking, so I just went with my favorite pony and year of birth. Since then, I've used it for everything, except for DeviantArt and Tumblr, where it was taken by people that never actually used it. There have been times when I thought about changing it, but people recognize this one, so I won't do that.

[Ruddboy Olaf 10,628]

7's my favorite number. Blue is my favorite color. Plus, it's take on my former name. "Evans Blue"

[stripper 252]

Stupid attention bait to see how people respond

[Peppermint Larry 203]

Pepper Mint is my ponysona.

 

Also, I love peppermint candies. Like, a lot.

 

[Asterous 14]

If anyone has ever watched Young Justice, they'll know that Robin (Dick Grayson) tends to "butcher" the English language to make his own words. "Feeling the aster" being one of those phrases I choose the word Asterous because he's my favourite character as well as that being my name across various forums. 

[Cybercowboy 7]

I've used this username since I was like 14. Not really sure when I came up with it, but it's stuck with me!

[Honey Milk 13]

Mostly because its cute.
