Ever since I was a little kid I'd always use Drake as an alias for almost anything online.(idk why, I just like the name)
The double hyphens because -Drake- is apparently taken(probably banned or something).

Edit:NVM Staff is nice :D

Mekurukito
Hmmm. Well, I'm from Japan so my Japanese name is Nakamura Kazuto but I got an english name when I moved to singapore which is Kevin Chang. I saw somewhere on an anime meme to find out my Japanese so Kevin = Mekurukito but that was taken so I added JP so Mekurukito JP. I would have wanted to put Kazuto JP but I alr used my name change from xpicosity to Mekurukito JP
Azern

mastermashme
Back in the good ol days of Runescape I had a desire to reign over all the newbies hence the master part of my name. However the 7 years oldish me thought adding mashme at the end was funny and that I could trick people into making them say master, mash me. I never did become good at Runescape.

Secretpipe
Just writing this again cause some ppl ask it to me :

Secretpipe , Secretpipe hmmmmm...

Never explained the origin but well , it's time.
Prepare some sandwiches and some pop corns :D

About 4 years ago , I was a huge Nintendo fan ; I mean : When a Zelda game is available , I'm buying it. When a Mario game is available , I'm buying it and so and so
It was like a drug xD And had this since I was 6
Let's return to the topic , the origin of the nick. First of all , it was in 2011 I think

It was a sunday , holidays just began. I was only play New Super Mario Bros DS, a classic game but I was focused on train speedrun stuff. This day , I played around 5 hours and I was still training ! And then , I received a call : It was one of my best friend , he asked me if I wanted to sleep on his home for 1/2 days . Guess what was my reaction , I was really happy but then my mom arrived. She told me to revise my English first cause a travel to England will come soon. I agreed with her and if you really know me , you know that I'm a lazy ass. I just opened a dictionnary and searched Mario's vocabulary like pipe , world , mushroom , turtles and others things. Once done , I'll go on my friend's house and I continue my speedrun training xD Yeah , my friend invited me cause we liked do speedruns in solo xD


After playing , around 21 a.m, dinner finished , my friend ask me one question : "hey bro , wanna register in a special Forum ? It talks about Nintendo and futures games". And I think you guys know my feel when I can't find a nick already used LOL . Here , my friend said :"Go take a shit name , it's only for register lol"
But I'm not okay with his idea , so I decide to search an idea of funny nickname. I tried to think what I made this day and link it directly with Nintendo.

And then! DING! I thought that the secret pipes / warp zones was reallly important while you do a speedrun. I tried warppipe but I thought it was a shit nickname xD Then I thought that Secretpipe would be better but my friend said it'd be nsfw xD So I thought ppl won't be idiot and I took that name !

And there we go , since 4 years ago I use this nick :D I used to take this nick on Youtube / Twitter / Steam ...and Osu!

I hope that your mind isn't blown anymore xD
Kodora
Mine is taken from Pokémon, "Kodora" is original Lairon's name (コドラ).

Rukaru
because I like shinonome urara and I want to use her name but someone already use it. https://osu.ppy.sh/u/urara
originated from : somethingurara -> rukarurara (skype ID) > rukaru. yea
Frikandel
I always used nicknames like Super Fantastic and stuff, and when I started league of legends I wanted to have a random word with numbers to be my nickname.

For some reason I am sticking with it.
Duskyui
Back when I played a Nuzlocke run of Pokemon VoltWhite, I got a Dusclops whom I named "Sir Dusky". I eventually decided to use that nickname for stuff like Steam. I ended up liking that name a lot, so I just stuck with it.
LigerZero
real life name is zulfikar rasyid syam from indonesia.... why my ID's "LigerZero"...? because i very fans to anime zoids new century zero
Niji_old_1

Cephre
It's a sort of combination of both my first and last name, but don't try guessing my name from it, I promise it won't work.
Dellvangel
It's simple: im using Dell laptop, and combinate it with angel, and taraa~~ --> "Dellvangel" xD
Lumo_
It was way back when I was in elementary school and at the time I used to play a game named Habbo Hotel. I made a bunch of friends in the game and got to know some of them a bit better. I had this one friend who's name was FantaC and we used to spent time together a lot just chatting and doing random activities.

I thought his name was cool at the time so eventually I decided to make a new character with a similar name. Since his name had fanta in it, I started thinking about sodas that I liked. Back then I almost always drank Sprite whenever I got soda so I thought it would be a good option. Then of course I had to add the C in the end which made it "cooler". So I tried to enter SpriteC but it was already taken which made me alter the name. After that SpiteC sounded good and I got that in the game.

Since then I have always used this as my username everywhere.
Shabui
I honestly have no idea, tried imputing it through Google Translate Chinese, nothing decipherable comes up, try searching it with "sheep" nothing helps.
Lakia
The 'La'st 'Kira' from Death Note.
Classmate Ei
Well despite the fact that I'm a short asian kid, my name comes from the Nordic derivative of Severus, which means severe. Had no idea until I looked it up just now, I just googled Middle Age names sometime in middle school. Also my old username was AcePhoenix, just two words I threw together that ended up sounding like an Ace Attorney reference. Didn't like that. Especially since I have yet to play one of said games.
HazeL_old_1
From my idol / avatar @crazykart
Frikandel
I always tryharded on usernames, so I decided to pick a random word with random numbers.
Wuxo
Contains parts of my lastname.
Laharl
Genius.
Hidden-
Since I'm half Caucasian and Half Native, most of my life always conclude to consider myself as a stranger, I never really felt I had my place when I was younger so the first half came from the Latin Stranger "Xeno". After I was wondering on either I would use "Stranger of life" or "Stranger of death" being a huge debate with myself on XenoVitam or XenoMortem, ended up using XenoMortem because I liked the pronunciation better ^.^ !

NeetBSD
I made this username when I was 11 back on ign I really liked the pokemon zoroark but I didn't want my name directly related to pokemon so I made what I thought to be a similar sounding name and I wanted to sound cool so I put an X in my name. The the part of my name implies that i am the only one I guess. jk I don't know

Offended
Well, I find almost everything offensive, and it has become an inside joke between me and my friends :P
Samuuui
I used the name ColdMattress for everything but i decided that it was kinda boring, i came up with Samuuu and Samukami. It had something to do with the word "cold" in Japanese and relating back to my previous username. I threw in kami cause i thought it sounded cool, idc if it means "god" that wasn't the point. Also i don't speak or write Japanese so i probably goofed somewhere. Anywho, i like my name now, deal with it c8

KagurachanB
Kagurachan is a bit boring don't you think?

I wanted to register as ''KagurachanBlue'' but It was very long so I cut it and then I'm called KagurachanB (It's funny because I don't get B rankings)

Also I'm about to become a supporter so maybe I will choose another username with ''Kagura''

Took my Minecraft username. When I read the Warrior Cats series, I based it off one of the protagonists. Was a derp and spelled Firestar wrong. Don't know why I used 1337speak in it, but whatever.

Choke Master_old
I played a long time ago at Warcraft 3 (2003-2004) and i really loved Taurens.
So my firsst username was Tauren34 and it became after some months toren34.
In 2010 i created an account on League Of Leagends but toren34 was already use so i decided to revrese letters in my name and it became nerot34.
On Steam, nerot was already take so i put some numbers within and n3r0t was born.

The end. :D
tl;dr : Tauren34 > toren34 > nerot34 > nerot > n3r0t
Yoshi_green
I found out about Yoshi first while playing Mario Party 4 on the GameCube back in 2nd grade or something and I found it really cute

I outgrew my obsession for Yoshi and it turned into just a love for green things because Yoshi's natural colour is green so by the time I arrived here, Yoshi_green seemed fitting

I never changed my username yet, but if I were to ever change it, Yoshi777 would probably be my choice since that's what I use on Youtube and other games that don't allow underscores in usernames ~
K3la
My nick doesn't really have any cool backstory.
I used to change my Steam nick all the time and most of my friends were all the time like "who were you again??" and then I thought that I'd change my nick to something that atleast resembled a word from my language even a bit, and also I had a thing for having a number or two in my nick, so I just kept on thinking about some words and then this just popped into my head.
Finnish people will probably recognize the word from my name.
Hii
I chose my username 'Tattoos' because I love the look of tattoos, the feeling of having art on your body just seems really cool. I myself don't have any Tattoos but as soon as I am able to get one, I'm going too. (Hopefully I will have a few in the next few years) :3

Kouya-
Well a friend wanted to do a collab and in order to make it official and cool, we changed our "shiety" usernames to the main characters .

The reason why that - is there in my name is because the original is already taken ( and abandoned ! )

So yeah, no more SupaWolfTiga .w.
NicaHime
Nica is my nickname and Hime simply means princess.

I'm one random potato, alright.
Hatate-tan
Being the weeb I am before, I pick NezuminX01 as my first username here. Months passed, bought a supporter tag
and changed it to my current username here and it's obviously from Touhou. Hatate Himekaidou.
Since someone's already using that, even only Hatate, I decided that why not add -tan in it? (to sound kinda cute? oh gosh lol)

Basically, I suck at naming my usernames ever since I was a weeb. lol. :o
- K a t h -
I don't know o-o I just added to "Senpai" to my name then boom~

Kathleen Senpai has always been my username :D
