So how did you come up with your username?
As for me
1. I live in Phoenix
2. Phoenix is a mythical bird that rises from the ashes
3. It's how Yoda would say it.

I was on the army's delayed entry program when the internet became a thing. That is why I went with soldier.
The thing is Yahoo would just let me be soldier I would have had to be soldier583942 so I tried soldier42 because 42 is the answer to life the universe and everything. It denied that as well so I tried soldier4242 and it accepted it. I have been soldier4242 for most everything ever since.0 -
book character. she's badass, grew up with a spear and a buckler in her hand, and is part of a culture of people who are fighters, independent and strong beyond measure.0

I started using the screenname d0gmamg0d over 15 years ago on AOL because I wanted a screenname that would kinda show I was a Kevin Smith fan and was tired of my mallrat024 name and didn't think AmyChaser or Clerk was fun enough. I've also always liked word games, so the thought of making my screenname a palindrome appealled to me. I actually had the name before the movie came out. Most of my "fun" (as opposed to the ones I have to use for business) screennames since then have been some derivative of that.0

1995 I was just learning about the internet. It was the time when AOL was the big ISP. 33.3K dial up was the norm and if you had 56K speeds, that was FAST!
Friend of mine introduced to Progidy (sp) Online and chat rooms. Told me to pick a name. I looked around his room and saw "lacroyx" on a VCR box. No idea what it meant but I went with it. I later found out that it's a different way of spelling "the cross" in French.0 -
I was obsessed with foxes, and obsessed with Japanese culture. Kitsune and Kits were my nicknames offline. Then as I got older and anime got more popular, so did the word Kitsune, which annoyed me when I went to pick a username for everything. So I added "The" in a fit of righteous hipster rage. Now i'm just resistant to change, its been my handle for over a decade.0

I love potatoes and I look like one too. Possibly related.0

Bregalad is an ent in LotR. He's known for being hasty. While reading LotR at the same time, my friend in college told me I was like him because I was always getting impatient. I've used it as the occasional user name ever since.0

My name is Jennifer Lyn (go by Jennifer or Jen to friends). I usually go by Jennilyn online, but add a 76 to the end if just "Jennilyn" is already taken.0

I am a big fan of Classical Mythology and Artemis is my favorite goddess, though I can't really say I relate to her much. She's the goddess of the hunt, wild animals, wilderness, childbirth, virginity and protector of young girls, bringing and relieving disease in women, and is associated with the moon. She was given a silver bow and a quiver with silver arrows and her brother Apollo got them in gold. 3 is just one of my favorite numbers and was tacked on to my yahoo username when silver_arrow was taken and I've just used it since.0

It was a typo years ago on a forum site far far forgotten. I just stuck with it. Basically gibberish...but haven't seen one like it.0

Mine is a role play character I have in a game called Deadlands. She was my default choice because my normal one is Jax, but someone had beaten me to that!!0

I am as tall southern (Dixieland) girl. I am 5'9" and my best friend when I was growing up was 5'0". People called us the amazon and the leprechaun.0

It is a Doctor Who reference to the (possibly) 11th Doctor. You know, the Matt Smith one. To be honest I always thought bow-ties were a little funky and out there, thus cool in my book. I am a HUGE Josh Whedon and Steven Moffat fan and my name is so unique I didn't want to use it even though it was available. It is pronounced Tonya but is spelled WAY funky, although I have certain friends who just call me Anya or Ton. I don't want random family and friends to find my MFP account while randomly searching for me on Google. Hahaha
(BTW Its not that I am ashamed of wanting to be fit, but they all always give me grief so i just keep it quite)0 -
Mine is pretty straight forward.
My name is Kelly, 1013 is a reference to X Files my first fandom and my forever love, and 86 is my birth year.
Boooooom!0 -

Your username is awesome

Well, I'm Short, have an elvish/ faerie like face, and I'm obsessed with Morgan Le fay, Merlin (TV show) Harry Potter, Faeries (the dark medieval kind) and always play the magic class when gaming. Also Wizard is associated with men, and witch sounded too evil. So I chose Mage. I almost did Sorceress, but it didn't flow as well. lol0
-
I think. All the time.
Therefore I am?
I wanted 'Ceasefire' but it was already taken. It's my username on a couple of games, but namely Puzzle Pirates. =B0 -
I am disorganized, and tend to get sidetracked easily.0

Mine has a bit of a small story, which I have told countless times but never really get bored with it.
When I left middle school and got into high school I didn't have many friends. I finally found a small group I hung out with a lot. They all knew each other from middle school, so I was the new guy. They all played Halo, which I never played. I started playing with them, but I was terrible.
Around that same time Red vs. Blue was coming out and they introduced the character Donut. This was before they turned Donut gay, much to my chagrin (or maybe he was always gay and I just never noticed because I was incredibly sheltered as a child). So my friends started calling me Donut. I needed a new handle because I was getting bored with my current one. I wanted to incorporate my "donut" nickname, however. I realized that I got killed with grenades and rockets a lot, so I put "explosive" in front of it. Plus the thought of a jelly filled doughnut filled with C4 made me laugh. Thus, explosive donut. Been using it for everything ever since.0 -
my cat, middle cat was born at the aspca. the girls that worked there named him and his sisters after the ghosts in pac man, he got named clyde. when we adopted him, i started calling him clyde the cat. i really like that name, so i stole it. i use it for my world of tanks name too.0
-
My name is Jennifer. I loooooove cats. At the time of joining all I could do was walk because I just broke my back. Oh, and I'd like to think that I'm pretty enough to walk a catwalk.

Hahahaha silliest thing i've read.0 -
I worked for Disney World for a month and it was the login name for their system that they gave me.0

Well.. Myseri is just Misery spelled incorrectly for ease of acceptance in a username database. I'm not miserable, but I find it healthy for me to be reminded that I will be if I don't keep my **** together. Mapleleaf- I not so secretly want to be Canadian. 0

Hahahaha silliest thing i've read.
For the record, I do not think I'm related to potatoes, just that my love of them might be related to my potatoesque form. Just realized it could've been taken two ways

LOL, I may actually be related to potatoes though. My love for them is strong enough.
My username is not too exciting-- my name is Savanna and everyone calls me Savvy. I used to have a friend who always said, "What's up, babycake?" and it morphed into Savvycake when he said it to me. It's probably a bad screenname for a weight loss site, incorporating the name of such a devilish dessert, but oh well, I'm devilish, so why not 0 -
For about 10 years, my nickname has been GOK (an acronym for Goddess of Kink...just don't ask!). One year, my friend, Mazz (she of the knitted Adipose babies infamy, if any of you remember that), my partner, and I went to the Who exhibition in London; the place was completely empty, so having it to ourselves, and being suitably equipped with laser and sonic screwdrivers, we had an adventure in there! She was The Mazzter, and I was The Goktor - it's stuck ever since! :bigsmile:0

TK as in "TK 421, why are you not at your post" (if you don't get it look it up) and 266 is month and year of birth.0
