Where do you guys come up with your usernames?

Mine was conjugated from various words in dead languages (Specifically Anglo-Saxon and Jatvingian... Latin is overused) that all mean "Lion". It was an attempt to make an original name that no one else uses. Although whenever I try to sign up somewhere, 50% of the time it's already taken... Wut.

Silent1236

Mine started way back in my childish MMO playing days where my name was "Silent Turtle."  It has since been shortened to Silent and then had numbers tacked on due to "Another user has this name."  Assholes. Silent is way better than Silent1236

I was in a noise band with some friends called Butt Pilot from the Planet Pluto back before Pluto was demoted and was still a planet. We all added "from Pluto" to our names and I just kept it. Had it since the MySpace days in '05.

Mine comes from a terrible anime I love called Detective Conan.

Detective Conan rules.

I got my name from a style of beatdown/hardcore music that was popular about bros and respect. My friends and I dubbed it "Dudecore". It was basically a joke about a soulless, meaningless, bullying type of scene.

Mlerner12

My name.

M- first initial.
Lerner- last name.
12- age when I got the account.


Pretty simple. I use this format for everything.

5/9 Turtle

I meant to put down
{Kozilek Butcher of Truth}
But it turned into Mozilla butcher, it's grown on me though

This whole time I thought it was a reference to Sonic Youth.

I totally get down to tough guy hardcore :(

rarehuntertay

Mine comes from a combination of things... My recording name (when is was on the label) Naugh-Tay... And from my early yugioh days when I was part of a group called rare hunters (original right?)

The Long Island, NY tough guy scene was annoying. Most bands would run with a crew that would beat up everyone in the pit, including women. Lots of skin head groups rebranded themselves as beatdown bands also. After several violent confrontations, venue closes and arrests, the scene has died down.

I don't get the reference to Sonic Youth, never really listened to them.
