I've seen a lot of unique and intresting usernames around here, and I'm really curious about where some of them came from. I know some of them probably have some nice stories behind them, so share them here! ^^
Also, this is kinda like a contest at the same time (if you feel like it) Nominate someone you think: 1. Has the coolest name 2. Or vote for someone who has the best story behind said name I, personally, changed usernames from site to site. When thinking about one for here, I decided to go outside my usual Silver or Kunada (If your curious about those two, ask anyway XD) and use one I either hadn't used ever before, or only once before. It took forever for me to remember that I went by Luna on a vampire RP site, when I was trying to see if one of my friend would recognize me if I changed my name (it actually worked for a month, until I gave them my Gaia username. Whoops) Since Luna was taken, I just added 'star' as a suffix (Warrior fans will know that 'star' is given to leaders of Clans) and there you go. A username I could actually remember :P Edit: GAH. I am SUCH a noob, despite the fact that my group is 'member.' A thread This post has been edited by Lunastar: Apr 26 2009, 02:32 PM -------------------- |

I liked Phoenix's at the time I joined, but I like it better if people called me Suzaku.

Kiriel is the name of a ball jointed doll I own, a character of mine for RPs and stories, and is a demonic character in a book I read (though mine is female and the book's isn't). Kiriel also means Mirror of Souls.
*Edit* Whoops, I forgot Kiriel had already been taken here, so I used my older nickname, based off my real name but edited up, Arekya (from Alexa). I like creating names based other names and then using them in stories and such. This post has been edited by Arekya: Apr 27 2009, 12:44 AM -------------------- |

My username is from a manga that I really love "Koko ni Iru Yo!" and Himawari is one of the main characters from that manga. It means 'sunflower' in Japanese. :]

I just used my Gaiaonline name. XD
But when I thought up that name for Gaia, I like Wolves and when I thought of Wolves I thought of the moon. XD and I just added Princess for fun. XD I usually go by Wolfie for short. -------------------- I am not the best speller in the world. DEAL WITH IT! "90% of teens would die if MySpace had a system failure and crashed.

It was back in August that I thought it was cool to merge Gardevoir and Gengar. Patchy is my usual name, which is my nickname irl, and short for my real name.

Well, I used to use mirage on websites, since I couldnt think of stuff, but I found that a lot of people use the username, so I got my favourite pokemon, crobat, and was gonna make it Crob@ (since @ is commonly used as at in some cases) but the website I first tried it on didn't allow @ and other symbols in usernames, so I chose eight for no reason whatsoever XD

I used Rukario for a short time span before joining here, knowing it was the Japanese Lucario. But, when I did come here, I realised that there was a 'dex, which could use Japanese names, so it probably isn't that original here.

When I was 12 (or was it 11? I really don't remember. I think 11.) I made this website called 'chocolate pikachu' (it was terrible, ugh). That became my username for everywhere for a long time until I started asking myself why. I hate pikachu. Why is it in my username? People were calling me Choco anyway so I just started signing up with that. When it's not taken I use CicadaShell or BatFood. Just because they sound cool. :U

XD Some of your stories made me snicker (It was friendly, I swear!) Does anyone know if there is an option to change your username? It'd be quite silly if there wasn't, but I have no clue how, and Im sure Im not alone O.o

I can't really remember where my name come. XD
It is actually my name on several other sites, so I would have to trek back to the first sight I had this name on. I just..random played around with litters and words until I came up with this, then years later ended up finding out it is an actual "name" from some cartoon or anime, but -shrugs- whatever. I liked the name so I stuck with it. -------------------- |

It, and my member title, come from an RP forum I work on. It's Naruto-based, and I help run Mist village, hence Mist. My old character (before I retired him) spent long stretches out of the village (though he shouldn't have--he was the leader), hence Wanderer. I also had a banner in my signature at one point with it. Spirit Walker is the title the character I had between that one and my current one had, owing to his talking to ghosts and keeping a veritable herd of them around. I briefly used the first one's character name here (Saito) but switched it when I could to something that sounded better.
My title at most other forums is Darkloid_Blues, but this one doesn't allow underscores, so. << -------------------- |

Mine is just a character I made that I just....stole the name from. I'm a thief like that. I'm pretty much known as the same thing everywhere, so I don't really want to change it.
