Where did your username come from?

[Gingerbread Latte]

Title says all.

Mine came from my obsession with Boo Ghost off Mario. =D

[Hyper Sonic]

Mine came from Hyper Sonic from Sonic 3 and Knuckles (O RLY? I hear you say sarcastically ). Sonic turns into hyper sonic after getting 7 chaos emeralds and 7 super emeralds

[Barbed Lungs]

My username came from the feeling I get on some days, when it hurts just to breathe. I call them my Barbed Lungs days.

[Blackwing]

my screen name came from...

[Pandaloo]

Because my favourite animal is the Panda and it was my nickname because it rhymes with Amanda. And my friend was singing "Waterloo" by ABBA, but sang "Pandaloo" instead for a random reason, and it sounded good so thats what i use for almost everything.

[Skeleton]

It's my nickname. Or, we could pretend it's something more exciting like I'm actually undercover and Charlie is the name they gave me to use.

[Prozac]

Uhmm, well, suprisingly, it's my name

[i_am_me_again]

I_am_me.


Well, that describes what I am & then I changed it to I_am_me_again.
Because Im still the same...but again...

Confused...yep!

[Magicalisland]

Mine came from the fact that I'm a pagan (magical) and the fact that I am closed off from the outside world (island). There is also a song about a magical island in "South Pacific".

[lauren_160]

Because my name's Lauren
and i was 16 when i joined, but lauren_16 was taken so i just put an 0 On the end ><

[MadPoet]

Mine came from a Switchfoot song... called Concrete Girl

[FromTheAshes]

Oh I feel pretentious now! Mine came from feeling like I was coming out of a dark time in my life where I was very depressed and generally felt dead inside (hence ashes), but that's in the past now so it's something I've come from and out of.

[L'espoir]

Cool thread =)

Mine came from my name
Then i added a "x" at the end!
Bet you never guessed that

x

[asyoulikeit]

This is a really interesting thread! And my username came from a Shakespeare play that I went to see last summer, which I loved to death and ended up memorizing half of. Using the name reminds me of the good times back then, although alot has happened since, good and bad

[Hollifire]

Mine's a nick name that my friend Chris gave me a couple of years ago. :]

[losing touch.]

Mine is my name with a few "x's" thrown in. I was going to take out the x's at the reset but then i changed my mind.

[Melody Pond]

Well my name is Rachel which can be shortened to Rach.
I saw the word Razzmatazz on an advert and just liked how it sounded.

I thought the alliteration was cool and I liked how it sounded when it was put together with my name

Also Razzmatazz is a colour of a crayola crayon. http://www.crayola.com/colorcensus/a....cfm?color=300

[Gaia]

Mine came from a mixture of things. Mainly the tragic irony.

[BrittneyNicole]

It's my name.

[Olive, always]

I was talking in the chat after the wipe, trying to figure out my new username...and I think it was Katrina or Amy that said, "Ergg, it's so difficult to come up with a new name.." and I'm like, "...brilliant!!"

[udontno]

Mine is udontno. Because at the point in time of the username's creation, no one really knew anything.

[St.Vincent]

Poet edna Millay's middle name AND a band. Howzabout that.

[Angilea.]

it;s my name (:

[eunoia]

I'm one of the original folks around here who's user name is their name. xD After the reset everyone else did it, too. But it's cool. I find it easier to remember people.

[NuHalo]

Its a mix between an egyption goddess and my favorite video game =\
Original.... BUT STUPID.

[Dasha]

Tis my name(original I know).

[s_tor_m]

i have this disorder called Selective Mutism (SM for short) and my nickname is tor, so s_tor_m was born

[Power Cosmic]

Mines means 'Unconquered' in latin...I thought I'd have something inspirational and stuff ^^;

[DoesThisLookInfected?]

It's the name of an album from Sum 41. Underclass Hero sounded cheesy, and Chuck sounds like a name. So I used DoesThisLookInfected? Which was the album before Chuck and Underclass Hero.

[TheWhiteTornado]

I got this nickname from speed-kicking at taekwondo tournaments,
now it's been shortened to White-T (say it quickly if you don't get it )

[LavenderErin]

I have these candle things that I light every morning while I get ready for school and the scent is Lavender, I love it. Thus, my name is LavenderErin. (Erin is my name lol)

[Acerbated]

Acerbated means bitter. Waaaay back when I was making a new email, I was angry and depressed at life, so it was acerbated_life. I eventually had to change emails because of random people adding me off some social networking site, so I shortened it to Acerbated. Now I use it for everything: th, nexopia, emails, twitter, last.fm, anything I sign up to. It's my online alias.

My username before, lostxsoul, was derived from just feeling completely lost at the time, and I added an x because I don't think spaces were allowed in usernames before, and I didn't want to use punctuation.

[M...]

Neat thread but yeah my user name... my big brother, who i don't see often 'cause he's in the navy was playing guitar hero on his Ps3 and decided to set up a band for me so I could play, and his nickname for me is Em, but he changed the spelling from Em, to M so ever since I've used that as my nick for like every where, "M" dramatic right? pfft. lol, but since I couldn't have a one character nick I added a "..." on to the end, because that is my favorite punctuation... so, I dunno, yeahhh...

[Tara.]

I don't remember. I've had it since dec 2004.
I think it started as a joke between me and my sister. I included the (girl) so now one would think I was a man. Lol.

[Casey.]

My username is code for awesome. Nah, it's just my name, but it makes it easier to tell me and the other Casey apart now.

[Gavsman]

mines just addition of my name Gaurav and this one girl i had a crush on for years
so Gavs- Gaurav Man-first three letters of that girls name..................

[love2laugh]

this will come as a suprise, but, i do indeed love to laugh.

[Magic.]

From the amazing song by Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip.
It's kind of sad, but it's kept me going SO many times.

[Bibliophile]

Its my name!

[Magical Forest.]

For years I went by on forums as SecretUpset. But then it wasnt a secret anymore, and when I first came here I wanted something different.

I had an overwhelming feeling of uselessness, and still liked people calling me 'secret' so joined the two together! Ooh also I guess I was holding a huge secret about myself so that comes with it.

I was going to change my username at the reset as I no longer feel useless, but I don't like change, so stuck with it! I regret it now, cos I don't want to sound all depressing. Oh well.
