mega thread Why you chose your user name.

[Vox 870]

Vox is my actual nickname, the police is my favorite band.

[GeneralPinkie 3]

Because Pinkie is our general and also our lord and savior.  :okiedokielokie:

[Nom de Plume 29]

Nom de Plume was the first OC I ever came up with, when I was first finding my way around the fandom, and I'm a little embarrassed to admit she was essentially just a self-insert.  She was a writer, thus the name, which is French (I think?) for 'Name of the Pen,' or simply 'Penname.'  As a way to honor her and what she started, I used the name on my FimFiction account.  Her cutie mark is my avatar here, on FF, and on deviantART as well.  It's kinda become my go-to username for all sites pony.

[u53rn4m3 69]

Because I'm

[Blue The Pikachu 537]

Because back in 7th grade, I started playing Black Ops and needed a username, my friend was "TheBlueMan" so I took "TheRedMan" as my gaming name... Why is it Blueman15? Because I took the Blue from him and 15 was my age XD

[Art Thief 215]

Because i couldn't come up with anything, and i saw this fan art.

[MasterDragoonBartz 21]

I wanted a seperate username to use for my Minecraft forums account that I was going to post my mods on. And then I started using it everywhere.

[Felix 1,363]

It's unique, interesting, and describes my personality a bit.

[AkiraLeeJounouchi 857]

Well my Vickram101 username was from the Good old days Of YouTube. Back In 2005 I sigend up and Vickram101 was one of the Username options. Since then I've used the name everywere.

 

My League Of Legends username Miyojin Mutou is a name I created when I now started FB back in the days. It's an amalgation of two name from two anime that I love. Mutou was from Yugi Mutou of Yu-Gi-Oh! and Miyojin is from Yahiko Miyojin from Rurouni Kenshin. That Name is Dead now so I decided to revive it on L.O.L. XD

[Tao 6,754]

It's from my OC in being so Lame I used it!

[7uprulez 4]

I made this username in like 2009 on some random forum, when I used to love 7up.

 

I hate it now.

[Minepro 107]

My username actually started on a Minecraft forum called MCMines back in 2011. When I joined, I kinda wanted something that had the forum name in it. So I picked mcminer(Minecraftminer) and 2011(year I joined) I even kept it when mcmines merged with Mineboard, the forum I'm on now, and it stuck with me since then. Nowadays my username is tied with the Luckcraft comic series and its prequel, Sky Terrain.

I even have my own Youtube with the same name. (subscribe plz?)

[DubWolf 16,660]

My name was changed to SparkWolf since my special somepony is SparklingSwirls , so I wanted to have a kind of "surname" to share with her (though I'm a guy) .

[AkiraLeeJounouchi 857]

 

because this guy is so awesome. Need I say more.

 

GOOOOOOOOOOKKKKKKAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIGGEEEEERRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!! Marvi Chan!!!!! I love Gokaiger and Shinkenger.

[ponylaces 1,869]

I had a very hard time coming up with a new username for the MLP fandom. I actually got mine from a username generator.. eeyup.

 

I liked "PonyLaces" obviously because of the word "pony", and "Laces" because I wear sneakers all the time? I also like sports

[Scrubbed user 3,415]

I changed mine.   

 

The meaning behind it is fairly simple. "Indigo" comes from my font color, indigo dye, and "Racing" comes from my life-long passion for motorsport, and it also sounds like a race team's name.

[Birdwing 87]

I chose Birdwing after the Cairns Birdwing butterfly. They're beautiful, and I used to catch them when I was little. 

 

[Rainblow H. Ash 5,090]

Because it's Halloween next month and I'm feeling delicious.

Wow, you caught those when you were little? All I caught were broken moths.

[Jadusstone 52]

jadus stone is a name i came up in high school and started using as a nickname, it's kinda stuck with me since then. 

[I don't know 32]

well......what can I say? hmmmm....

[Guest]

well......what can I say? hmmmm....

Sounds so much like myself I was 'Undecided', obviously because I couldn't decide on anything XD 

 

My new username is because I'm no longer undecided, but Shimmering for Sunset instead (whatever that means, I just wanted to incorporate her name somehow really )

[Wyzecat 350]

My original general catch-all username was originally "Wise Cat" but

A. That was already in use

B. An underscore would look pretty ugly

 

So I chose Wyzecat. It's simple and memorable without being excessively long. I haven't looked back since.

[Dewdlz 938]

I've used my particular username for several years on different websites. Mostly MMORPG's though. My pet snake is named Snickers, so it evolved from Snickers + Snickerdewdl = Dewdlz.

[Lunia 332]

I like Princess Luna ,but I didn't just want to be called Luna. So I changed it to Lunia and just added and i.
