mega thread Why you chose your user name.

[Strider Hiryu 116]

Strider became my anchor in UMVC3.

[AIMonkey 197]

For this nickname, long story short:

AI as in Artificial Intelligence, thinking about robotics, thinking about cybernetics, so basically my future as a Cyborg.

Yes, I would actually like to become a cybernetic creature in life.

 

(part that makes this short story longer)

Especially if my body can't handle the punishment any more which I strain it with

I simply force my body to fix things on its own first and foremost. If something isn't life-threatening you won't even see me near a general practitioner. I always avoid things like extra supplements, vitamins or anything. If my body doesn't make it for itself I won't supply from an outside source either.

 

Maybe I also want to become a cyborg because I wouldn't get any thinner. I can already see my ribs without trying. I guess that's what an avg. weight of 55kg does with you. (and no, I don't eat healthy or anything and yes I eat plenty) I've always appreciated small/thin but effective/strong rather then big and clumsy power.

 

And well, the Monkey part. That's simple, I'm a Monkey

[spas-ticShotty 3,584]

deadMansFINALstandingHand is based off TBNRfrag's nickname for the deathstreak Dead Man's Hand from MW3, which he frequently calls "Dead Man Standing Hand" . Basically, it's a combo of DMH and Final Stand, and since I find it highly amusing when he calls it that, and the fact he spent 50 hours without sleep livestreaming a 200 MOAB spree, I decided to rename myself in both honor of him and for the amusement

[Gigachip 148]

Its been my online name since I started gaming back in '03 on MMOs

[BHall82 5]

Bc the username fapping for bronies was taken iono

[moneyshredderofdeath 414]

I looked on the internet for a username a few hours before I joined. I ended up finding a "magical horse name generator" or something to that extent and after entering a few random names to generate a pony name I ended up getting "Salty" which I liked enough to use.

[Gone for good 1,593]

I picked lordbababa because I use it for everything.

 

Including my college login info!

[Notyourjason 6]

Because you wouldn't let me pick pedobear pony. Baztards.

[RobVanDam 15]

Because I'm like a good RVD impersonator dude. And like RVD is a role model for me, I feel stoked that it wasn't like taken.

[Mith21 16]

Frodo from Lord of the Rings was given "mithril" armor and it saved his life in the Mines of Moria. I took the first 4 letters from mithril and it's just stuck with me for like 10 years or so as my username haha! It's kind of nerdy I guess but I love it and a name is a name! xD

[Shadowed Watcher 183]

I chose my name because I'm the third rainbow dash, the first one is there one everyone knows about, the second one is hiding in an underground bunker as not to cause mass hysteria and then there's me

[Sky 746]

People have called my Sky since I started to watch clouds

[SonOfTheNorthe 412]

I got my name from here:

Vikings are friggen awesome.

[Finesthour 7,287]

Because Crona is awesome.

What other explanation do you need?

[Nikodemos 25]

My name originally comes for my real name, Niko. After some searching, I found out it's original, Greek version meant Nikodemos, so I decided to start using that on every place I go into. So, that's why I can usually be found as Nikodemos on most platforms.

[Shadow Chaser 633]

This is actually the name of my original character that I made up for my fanfictions. After writing a story and a half about him so far, I've become attached to it. I may use it more often now.

[RoadtoEquestria 59]

My email adress is RoadtoQuahog; Quahog being the town in which Family Guy takes place.

 

So, being my unoriginal self, I just repleced Quahog with Equestria.

[Despair 114]

I choose mine because to, everyone around me, i'm nothing but a stranger because they don't care to get to know me. So, I don't care for them.

[Acleps 11]

When I joined the brony community, I realized that I needed a nickname. I didn't want to use the ones I already had, because most of them were known by my friends, and I didn't want to risk anyone knowing me (Right now that wouldn't be a problem ). The moment I was prompted with a "choose your nickname" box, I basically let my fingers run around the keyboard until something came up . From that day onwards, I decided that Acleps will be my pony-related username.

[Mint Petal 258]

I chose my name because that's the name of my favorite OC. It used to be another of my OC's names, but then I picked a new favorite.

[Pfc Ecnolancer 12]

Maybe 10 years ago I started playing Classic Runescape (which was just Runescape then) and i thougt Necromancers were cool. necro -> Ecto -> Ecno. Mancer-> Lancer. and now I have still bee the one and only Ecnolancer, regardless of the countless times I've been called Echo.

[Krystal 1,468]

Because Krystal is best pony

Edited July 1, 2012 by Krystal Serenity

[SUPERFOX5 387]

It was the one I first used for my very, very, VERY first message boards I joined, Nintendo Forums, before they changed it to support forums.

I used each part of my username as either a game character's name or the name of the game.

SUPER = Super Mario Bros.

FOX = Fox McCloud from StarFox

5 = a random number given to me as a suggestion when first signing up.

[DuskSong 742]

Twilight Sparkle was taken. So I used this instead.

[TomokoKuroki 1,707]

I changed my name to Hayzelestia because I was Hayze, and I also was once Celestia, so as she is best pony I felt it apropirate to mix her name with mine this time.
