mega thread Why you chose your user name.

[Veronica The Miffvixen 232]

I'm named Veronica, I'm a furry, and my fursona is a fox.

 

There really isn't any more depth to my username than that. Ain't I exciting?

[Codex 34]

"Codex" means "book." Have you ever read one of my posts? They can be long. Heck, the first post I ever put on here was an essay that  has to be at least ten pages.

 

Not like this post. It doesn't take a long time to say "I take a long time to say things."

[Princess Derpy 672]

Well, I like Derpy Hooves/ DItzy Doo, whatever, and I thought it would be awesome if she was a princess, and thus Princess Derpy was born! Exciting story huh? x3

[Chuckles4lyfe 441]

I had a friend in middle school whose middle name was Chuck. For some reason, my brothers and I found it hilarious because it just didn't fit my friend at all. Not to sound racist but my friend was Indian and having an Indian first and last name and then an American middle name just had us all laughing for weeks on end. 

 

Also, my family tells me that I have a very distinct laugh. If you catch me in a laughing fit, you'll probably remember it for the rest of your life, lol.

 

My friends middle name and my insane laughter was the concept behind "Chuckles". The 4lyfe was later added because my philosophy is that we all need to have a nice laugh or "chuckle" here and there in our daily lives .  

[sxp 404]

Tenebris means darkness in latin. I like dark colours, and I'm somewhat interested in mysterious things. And most importantly it sounds cool.

[Limey 524]

My username comes from an old Warhammer 40,000 meme (yes I know). In the game Dawn of War: Soulstorm, the Space marine leader Commander Indrick Boreale is played by a really, really bad voice actor. As a result, instead of saying 'Space Marines' it ended up sounding more like 'Spess Mehreens'. Being a massive Warhammer 40k fan at the time, I found this hilarious and pretty much named all my accounts after it.

 

(Video's don't work for me for some reason )

Even as the obsession over this silly meme left me, the name kinda stuck.

[Agent153 50]

Agent153, the reason behind it is simple.

 

One night I was watching a marathin of spy flicks, specifically the 007 series. I thought to myself how cool would it be to be a secret agent. Get all those nefty gadgets (pen laser anyone?), go on exciting adventures, the women ;3. So come next day when im making a username for my PSN I immeditely thought James Bond, and the rest is obvious

[Sir.Flutter Hooves 2,953]

I chose mine because I saw my profile picture.

 

I saw that and I though to myself "Derpy looks like a sir." Then a though came to my mind, Sir Derpington Hooves. I bro hoofed my brain, and thats the story.

[frozengal 1]

So simple. I love this name. and I use it as last name in all my social networking accounts. my name is steffy.. I used to keep as steffy the frozengal

[King 5,625]

Well Dawn Rider is my OC, based off my personality

So it was really simple really to choose him :3

 

Aka: Im a little bit of a show off, I love to do certain sports but im very caring towards my friends :3

[TheCraftyWhiteFox 371]

i choose mine because i love to watch shooting stars and i love how everyone of them is different. but also because there is alot of symbolic meaning to me behind a shooting star

[Moog the Kvlt 1,460]

My name comes from when people were putting their names as an eevelution so I decided to do a play on words

Then when the whole YIFF movement started, I didn't want to put the YIFF pic in my sig since I like the one I have

So then I decided to add on the (#YIFF) part, and the fact of how everyone decided to do so after I did

Makes me feel every special, for some strange reason that I will never get

[Dr. Love 88]

It all started a few days ago since I'm sort of new to this website, I thought to myself "what would be a good name to mask my true identity", I pondered this question for many minutes until i came to a conclusion.....Actually I just thought of it while I was in the shower, I made that other stuff up because of the 100 character limit. 

[~Scootaloo 440]

I chose my username, because she is my favorite filly on the show Scootaloo! I may be new, but I admire her traits she is brave, and very cool!

[Shiki 5,855]

Changed my username.

Again.

 

It was a nickname given to me when I was still "Sugar Plum." It stuck, even after I changed my username multiple times afterwards to try and get something different to stick. However, I gave up and just changed it to "Plummy." :v

[Twister The Twisted 92]

Well the name Twister came from a fan-fic me and my friend (Swift) were writing at the time we joined the forum and well the "The Twisted" Part came from another forum because when i was a mod there we had to crack down on discipline and some would say i was the worst for cracking down, getting the name of the "Twisted Mod" for the fact of harshness.....baring in mind this was ages ago and I am not like that now >.>

[TheBreech 91]

It was my first OC that I really did any work on. He was an assassin and I wanted to come up with a cool codename for him. I was also getting into Sci-fi alot more than I normally am (a craze I've fallen out of, Fantasy is where I belong) so I decided Br33ch. I liked it and changed it to TheBreech when I didn't like the 3s as much.

Btw unrelated to my Username, I changed Breech to Cosmo, my first OC of any kind, when I decided Breech wasn't a very pony name and I realized just how unoriginal his black (midnight blue but still...) and red color scheme was.

[Endless Storm 109]

I don't really know where I got my username, all I know is on one site I went to where I used the name Endless Storm for like no reason, then slowly I started using that name more and now it's my name on every site I go to

[Midnight Dragon 264]

I chose my name, Midnight Dragon, because it's the name of my OC. (I have several made-up characters, but Midnight is the one that's supposed to be a lot like myself...)

[JayPeg 17]

I have the username JPdude612 simply because:
1: JP- = Japanese, since I am half Japanese.
2: -dude = Dude because originally I had thought it was American slang for "male", showing I am half American and male.

3: -612 = 3 random numbers because I don't think I can just run out there and use "JPdude" expecting it to not be taken.

 

The username goes far back really. I don't exactly remember how I came up with it, only what my username comprises of. Then again theres not many things I remember of my childhood, so not remembering how I came up with it is no surprise to me.

[IronPuddinG 249]

My username? Heh, nothing too special. Before I had it, I was stuck with names that I just made up. I was, for a time, known officially as baconman274 (Some random named I picked for Halo MP). When I got on SCII, I couldn't put numbers in there, so I just did 'Vader' (I get jokes about it all the time on Ladder, but I still regret the decision). Seeing as how I didn't want my alias to be a bland name like 'Vader', I began to conjure up a bunch of names. One of the requirements I set for myself was that it had to be oxymoronic/ironic. After a few throw away's, I thought of Iron, which is hard, and Pudding, which is soft and a little jiggly. Feeling that it was random enough and it fit the criteria, it stuck; originally spelled with wacky capitalization as 'IrOnPUdDiNg' to just IronPuddinG. Right now, the '-sYQG-' is my clan tag, so it isn't part of my name.
Well, there's a brief little history of how I conjured up my username.

[Hawk Moth 390]

Hugo is the name of a character from my stories. His title is "Iron Soul" so I just worked off of that. I thought putting "the" in front of it would make it sound funny.

[Lisa 5,553]

I've had this name for a year now. I originally got the idea, from when I started to make music.

So I added 'DJ' in it.

Then after 'DJ' I needed a name obviously, so why not Luna? My favourite pony. :3

 

And not only is this the name I use when I don't need my real name, this is also my stage name.

(stage name = what I'm called at performances and such. Examples are: Ke$ha, P!nk, Eminem, etc..)

 

And the heart? That was just random. I don't use that all the time.

[Sir Cal Stonehoof 596]

I've used the handle Caledonian for a while now.. It's kind of a mixture of reasons. I'm not Scottish, but my family heritage goes back very far in Ireland, and Scotland, so that is a factor. Plus I remember hearing a song called "Caledonia" by the groups Celtic Women and Celtic Thunder.  Also I just liked the idea of a character that was simply know by where he came from, and I guess that is how I found my name. I am hoping one day to find a way to draw my idea of my pony out..complete with a kilt! xD

[Sugar Cube 4,843]

Applejack is my favorite pony, so why not make it obvious by using her term of endearment? And well, I like sugary things, so it works out well enough.
