mega thread Why you chose your user name.

[Indiana_Dash 81]

Well, while watching episode about Daring Do I thought that she looks like female-pony-Indiana-Jones-incarnation (yeah, I have a very weird imagination). And so I create a nickname include name of a great wanderer and a my favorite pony

[Mizune 37]

I think I just mashed together the Japanese words for water and fox... Mizu and Kitsune. That one has a fairly long explanation...

[Ellothar27 3]

Back in the 7th grade I was watching a youtube video. In the description it said "Why Ello' Thar...". I began to say it in school with friends and such. Even when we were signing year books I put "Why Ello thar" under my name. Later that year I joined my first social network and I chose Ellothar as my username. The 27 part I added to my username because 27 is one of my favorite numbers.

[Kelvocity 211]

Because on a game I used to play my name was Kelvin with some numbers, but I wanted to lose the numbers, and Kelvin was probably taken everywhere, so I came up with some modifications with some people on that game I used to play and chose this one, kind of a cross between Kelvin and Velocity.

[BronyDerp117 113]

Well, to start off I've had the 117 on my all of my usernames since Halo 3 came out. I saw at the end that the Master Chief was Spartan 117, so I started using the 117 for a long time. On non-pony sites, I usually made my username something like sanchez117, because my last name is Sanchez.

 

I got the BronyDerp when I made my FiM Fiction profile. I'm a huge derp sometimes, and I'm a brony, so I just combined the two.

[MelancholicMemory 2,025]

My username is from a poem I wrote once, and I just thought it sounded good. I didn't use any of my usernames from other sites because I didn't think they would fit this forum as well.

[Pinkie D Pie 1,036]

I got bored of having names based off of cannon ponies, so I became my super badass OC. Yeah that's about it. As for why the OC is called Shadow Stalker, she controls the shadows. Yeah that's all I got.

[Tenshinohana 264]

Oh, I'm not sure if I've already answered this thread, but oh well.

 

When I was about 12, I had to think up a cool name for an anime site I wanted to visit. I came up with a nick "^^Hana^^", because hana means flower... And I kinda liked it. But then I kinda mixed up with my name, and I Hana wasn't available... So I took Tenshinohana, "angel's flower". And since then I've always used Tenshinohana.

[Teller 360]

When I signed up, I originally tried to use the username Tom, but some fool (or brilliant mastermind) has already taken that. After much weeping and bawling, I executed "B nalP", and just reversed it.

 

Whoever has the Tom username, I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let me be Tom now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill love and tolerate you.

[Minath Khalsi 195]

Prepare for nerdy overload:

Minath is my ain character on a online gaming site, World of Warcraft (WoW). On WoW, my favorite race is the Pandarians, basically asian people-panda hybrids living on the back of a turtle. So my Pandarians name is Minath, and all my other gaming sites are Minath, so that's where the Minath comes in, and I like the Panda race so that's where the Pandarian comes in. Minath Pandarian=Screen name+Race I play

[Sakamoto 103]

Meh, I just like the ring of it. This name reminds me of someone who can't stop squeeing like shit to warhammer models. I believe she was known as Weyland in this place

[Sugar Surprise 6]

Pretty much because Sugar Surprise is my second pony OC other than Flittershine, which is an alicorn OC of mine, and I've already used that name on YouTube. I'm sure no one choose Flittershine on this site quite yet, but I'm getting a little tired of having the same usernames I've had in the past three years on all the sites I've registered at, so I decided to use my OC's name for this site this time.

[ConfettiBoom 35]

I chose my username because it's the name of one of my many OC's (can't stop making them!), but I chose the OC name also because she's a ponified version of me.

[ZenPowerBuilder 17]

Where did my username come from? Early this year I signed up for Lego universe since they made it free to play. If you were a free player then you had to use a pregenerated name picking from a list. After a while of thinking the name ZenPowerBuilder looked good. After the game closed (which was a month later) I started playing minecraft I used the same name. The name stuck and it was a good way to remember lego universe.

[Red Hood 4]

There's really no super long story story to mine. i usually just go by jontohl5 for sites I don't think I'll visit often (I'm always right about that), so I said to myself "I'll be coming back here, so I need something good". It didn't take long for the inner Batman nerd/Jason Todd fan in me to come out and suggest "How about Red Hood? It's a comic book reference, so that means it's probably not taken." And I always listen to my inner nerd, because that guy never steers me wrong, and he didn't this time either.

[Steel Accord 6,660]

I chose my username from my ponysona. My entire brony web identity is basically that. Except Youtube, but even that has a picture of me as a pony for it.

[Celtore 2,770]

Celtore has been my most commonly used online handle for ages. I actually pulled it out of a random nickname generator and I slightly modified it from there. Im actually quite bad with names, usually resorting to the ubuntu system for nicknames (such as Eager Emu or Perplexed Pigeon), slight modifications of Celtore (like Keltorr in GW2) or a random name / word generator.

[Commander Urdnot 2,680]

Because Mass Effect is my favorite game on the citadel. Plus, Commander Shepard, and the Krogan are beast-mode.

 

This song explains everything:

[Roachling23 18]

Based on my fanbase brain. Though I am a Brony, I used to play Starcraft 2. Roaches is my best Zerg unit to use, and ling because I like using Speedlings(Zerglings with Speed upgrade).

 

Also yes I play R-Type Final FYI. (It's old, but unlocking all ships is awesome.)

[Victor van Dort 202]

I chose mine because it is almost purely anonymous. And the fact that 42 is supposedly the ultimate answer to life and the universe is one of few things that blow my mind.

[Appleja©k 31]

Well this wasn't my first choice. My oranginal username was ApplejacksDaBest (Because she is), Then It was BuckTillYouDrop, Now It's Wild Boulder, Which is my OC.

[Broccoli 127]

Because I'm interested in the universe and Fluttershy is second best pony Yes I still like Pinkie a little bit more but I chose this name because I thought it sounded nice. Also, my gmail username is fluttershire@gmail.com, which is a fussion between Fluttershy and the home of all hobbits, The Shire, from Lord of the Rings. Since I already had this email I thought my name on this forums should be something related.

[khaine21x3 789]

First attempt at making an account - finishes registering then realize that the email was wrong and it can't be changed

 

second attempt- made random name

Edited October 21, 2012 by khaine21x3

[Crystal Skull 53]

I chose my name because I always think that there is an endless possibility to what you can do in life. That's why I'm known as Endless or Endlesspittt

[Twilight_Scratch 13]

I wanted to show off my love for my two favorite ponies. I might change If I develop my own OC. I needed a brony username cause my normal one just isn't cutting to anymore.
