Fixumi
S-Fox

It began with Super Smash Bros Brawl when I played it online, I had to think of a name, at first I was very good with Ike, the nickname was only 5 letters max. so I named it
S-Ike (S means Super) actually sounds stupid but whatever.

No long time after that, I was very good with fox( I still am), so I named it S-fox, but call it whatever you want, like S for "Super" or "Star" but for me its just an S that nothing means.

-------------------------------
Fixumi

Actually I use another nickname for games, sites etc. called "Fixumi" which had a better story I think.
Anyway, since November 2010 I became very interested in Anime an my first Anime I watched was Lucky Star, Konata Izumi was(still is) my fave character(also my fave of all anime).
And my most favorite videogame character is Fox(Starfox), so I mixed up the name Fox with Izumi, so it became Fixumi.

I rather call my nickname Fixumi, but unfortunately I cant change 'til I become OSU! supporter, so I can get the possibility to change my name.

Greetz, Fixumi

I wanted a name like Rai for a game...but it was taken, so I made Xirai out of it.
Unfortunately in a lot of games Xirai is already taken so I just use similar names like Xirail, Xiraight, Xirain, Xirait....etc xD

Before I switched my main alias to Winter, my alias used to be Kaona which I use here and on a Japanese learning forum. I also use it on this TeamSpeak server I sometimes drop by into.

At the time, I was really into Kimmidolls and my favourite Kimmidoll at that time was Kaona. Enough said.

My nickname?
I loved playing Super Mario at the time I joined in osu!, and I found Yellow Yoshi was cute with no specific reason at that time. :3
For 1996,that's because I was born in 1996.But it's regretful that the nickname"Yellow Yoshi" was already be registered, so I can only use "yellowyoshi1996".

I use this nick everywhere
It begins from the game WoW when I make 2 characters, Gatya and Gatyaa.
Then I leveled and geared Gatyaa more and liked it more so I use it everywhere.

My user name actually came from my real name (first name only, last name is not included) that is: Muhammad Nur Hidayat
I used this user name in most of game forums, language-learning sites (like lang-8), and used as a user name for Wikipedia too..

For Facebook user name, I added ".aka.Nurul" at the end of my user name, so it becomes MuhdNurHidayat.aka.Nurul which that "aka" stands for "also known as" and "Nurul" is name that some of my friends called me (IDK why they called me Nurul).
(By the way, do you know that Facebook account actually can have user name?? I think you have to verify your account first before you can use a user name in Facebook, I verified my account using mobile phone.. :P)

Alternative user name is Yacchan, used mainly in anime forums and anime websites (except MyAnimeList). Yacchan came from Yorokobi Hidayatsu + chan.
(FYI, the big tsu (つ) when combined with other, e.g. chan (ちゃん), will become cchan (っちゃん)- small tsu (っ) with big chan (ちゃん))

Yorokobi Hidayatsu (Japanese:喜び 飛騨萢/English: Hidayatsu Yorokobi) is my Japanese name, whereas Xi Da Ya (喜达亚) is my Chinese name.
Before this, some (Japanese) would call me Hidayachi (because they usually read 萢 as yachi instead of yatsu) but now they call me Hidayatsu (LOL).
Ah... I really need furigana(s)!!!! :P

Me and a friend were watching Clannad, and pretty much the only other anime he had seen at the time was Fruits Basket. When Kyou appeared, he called her "Kyo-kun", referencing the Fruits Basket character. We thought it was funny, so I used this name for osu!. Not so interesting, but people ask me often.

Twee (is random) + lon (is my nickname, a mix of my first and last name shortened). [e.g. Okarin for Okabe Rintarou (Steins;Gate)]

At least, I subscribe in many websites since many years by "Random stuff"+ Lon, or simply take Lon as username when it's possible.
And unfortunately, Lon means somebody else in this kind of game.
Therefore, the people I know here identify me more as Twee than Lon. But whatever

People asked me many times in what meaning my nick is used.
It's not definitely either bass guitar or fish. It came from Basshunter who I used to listen long time ago. On some of mp3s I noticed there is written "Bassmaster" so I took it(first time it was used on polish forum)

The name "Starrior" is the title of a game that I've started developing, stopped, restarted, etc. for several years now and will likely never actually finish. I re-designed it every time I restarted and wound up disliking what I had come up with.

I'm not sure why I chose it for my nick here, honestly, but there it is.

The "X" is just random, though. :P
