mega thread Why you chose your user name.

[Bizarre Wizard 5,010]

I was Crypty before (Crypty was my OC and alter ego). But now I feel like Crypty is gone.

[BlueCoats 19]

It was simply the best name I could think of at the time

[Le Trotteur Sauvage 13,051]

Bacause my OC is a trotter earth pony living in the wild !

[Summer Breeze 2,528]

It's the name of my oc ^^ and when I was thinking about what I would name her, I was outside and it was a really nice summer day and there was a breeze so I was like, wow, this is nice. I thought that Summer Breeze sounded cool as a name and then decided to keep it ^^ 

[Cash In 22,323]

A friend started calling me "Cash In" because people used to come to me when they needed money. It also happens to almost be an anagram of my first name. Go figure.

[Sparklefan1234 170,940]

I chose my name because Twilight Sparkle is my favorite pony. 

[Prospekt 11,018]

The name Prospekt came from my days as a Coldplay fanatic. 

Where did Coldplay get the name? Prospekt is a character alluded to in some promotional material leading up to the release of the album Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends. Basically, an anonymous person who sat in on the recording sessions, and who was mentioned in a song on the Prospekt's March EP. Some think it was Chris Martin, some think one of the producers, or even one of the band's roadies.

Now, I've been mulling over an OC named Prospekt for a while. While the original name is probably just a nonsensical misspelling of "prospect," I've tried to create a mythos for the character that gives his name meaning in his own life. In short, the OC's name symbolizes empathy, encouragement, and optimism; it's metaphorically digging deep into another person to understand them and see the good in them. That's Prospekt's special talent: "prospecting" for the "gold" (goodness) that resides within all living things.

There's another meaning behind the name, as well, but I'm not going to tell, lest it spoil a fanfic about the character.

[Spryzen.0.Zt 75]

My username is based on a Beyblade called Spriggan Requiem 0 Zeta. The Hasbro (english) name for all Spriggan models is Spryzen.

[Deltroz 114]

Well

my dad had a username for Xbox right? I would play on his account all the time and in bo2 I would get called dezzrin so I thought when I made my play station name hmm I need to keep this tradition ( it wasn’t one ) so when I made an account on this forum I used Deltroz

after a few months of being here wannabe bronylicyous or what ever said hey ima change my name

i was like wow so I did the same to xxXswag_noscope_420Xxx

becuase of my obsession with mlg parodies and my love for bo2 so yeah it’s pretty dumb but whatever

[Divine plywood 1,239]

I have used this username earlier in some occasions.

Last couple of years it have been very popular to decorate rooms using as much white and being as minimalistic as humanly possible. Trends change quickly and in order to be hip, you should buy new furniture or change your look in every three months. I know what I like and what things make me feel comfortable, so I don't really bother to redecorate that often. I also like patterns and textures of wood, hence many of my furniture are unpainted. One of my female friends who loves home decor magazines don't share this appreciation however, and calls my home "timber warehouse"  It became an inside joke and she suggested this for my account's name for some random site back in the day. Been stuck with it ever since.

This being pony related site, I find my old username rather suitable.

[Angle Alastor 3,805]

took me a little while to pick out a unique user name that isnt similar to other users and thought about....steam control its game related from the word steam on pc and controller for ps4 and and well the name just came to me and decided hey its unique its not like the other members so picked it ! xD

[Thuja 3,659]

I wanted to make all of my new usernames with nature themes since my irl name is after a tree.  So I've been making every account I can with the name Thuja or something similar.  My first username for this site was Anishna but I changed it to Thuja.

[The Mint Pone 2,294]

[PinkieShadow 4,056]

I´m deadpan.... I´m gray... everyday life is gray... somepony hated Tempest Shadow me. But I´m happy in all cases 

[Here No Longer 5,276]

I initially had a different username, but changed it twice. Now it's "Dusky" with tildes beside and aroud it. Without those, this name is already taken. I decided on something like tha because of my favorite pokemon, Dusknoir and it's non-evolved counterpart, Duskull. Settled on something Dusk related.

[Messy Mane 9,032]

it's my OC's original name,which describes him very well.I also chose it because I didn't like my previous username as much as this one.

[Flutterstep 47,085]

Because I don't what everyone knowing that Delicious is still alive and active...lurking in the shadows...waiting...
