Where did your username originate from?

It all started long, long ago when I had to name my character for a different game and was feeling too lazy to come up with something cool, so I just decided to come up with something completely average. At first, I wasn't sure whether or not I wanted to name my character Bob or Johnathan, so I just decided to combine the two and went with Bobbathan. Since then, Bobbathan has been my go-to username for almost everything.
I got my username from a visual novel I read and I was very fascinated by the name so I started using it in every forum and online games (If "Reva" is taken, I'd just go with "Revasence")
*Cough*
My Name was NierA2. The game Nier:Automata and Character A2
My current Name originated from a stream ive done on YouTube. No one believed me i played osu! on a pillow on a couch so they watched my stream. The pillow was a running gag that turned into my new username.

My nick is from a game that i like very much, called Deponia. Every chapter starts with a music, and at the end of the song the scream: "Huzzah" and the name of the chapter. I think it's cool so i used here.

I was 14 years old and i thought that this name was cool, how to waste a free nickname change.

FactoMan_old
both (or 3) of them are all from my youtube shitposts, I stuck with beach turkey because it sounded good
I played alot of cs back in the day and when i first started playing my friend who was a way higher rank then me just to jump and spray with a mac 10. so after a bit i decided to change my user to Jumps2Much. And even after my cs days i guess the name stuck
When I was six or seven, me and my siblings used to pretend to be fictional characters in a fantasy world.
I was a sand goblin and my sister had named him Dinomi.
I decided to stick with that name for all my online Aliases

When I registered in 2014 it was shortly after I watched the second season of YuruYuri and I love Akarin a lot so I wanted to use her as mascot for this account, she innocently loves her oneechan who also loves Akarin but with a "deeper" kind of love as you know if you watched the series. I thought it was funny, but I decided to not use her anymore since there're already so many players using Akarin and YY characters lol. I'll probably change name when I get osu supporter again.
Fun fact: the post above is the 1337th

Mine doesn't really have any sort of special meaning. I thought of two things I liked: cinnamon, and Danganronpa. So I just kind of mashed them together... to end up with cinnaronpa. I thought this sounded kind of nice, so I just went with it.
Honesty I have no idea where it came from but it just sort of poped in my head and I just liked it so I entered it as my username
i like kpop and i stan(ned) jbj, my fave was donghan so... yeah
When I made an account for this game I ran out of names that made sense so I just combined a bunch of letters then made "Bonkzor". Then a couple months later I bought supporter for the first time and shortened my name to Bonk. Now I regret it because I am getting mentioned in osu! when people are talking about bonk.io.
I used to use various different usernames that I randomly came up with, which usually had numbers tacked onto the end, but when I found (and started going to) The Escapist's forums, I felt like I needed a staying moniker, because the forum was more...high brow than the forums I'd been used to at the time, and I felt like all my previous usernames were temporary (which I didn't want for this forum 'cause I really delved into the whole sub-culture the forum had etc) and pretty childish (since I often used names like "Alien54" and "-Buzted-"etc). Since my English was much weaker back then, I thought of a random, cool word from my native language (which, when translated, is essentially something like "charged"), put it into an online dictionary, and it came up with "fraught".
Button smashing.
Smashed some buttons together then tried pronouncing stuff, then magically it became Ruukiro, of course someone had to take "Rukiro" so I did what every person that's ever had their dream name taken do, add an extra letter.

When I first had to pick a username, it was on the minecraft launcher page. I didn't know what to put, so I looked on my desktop behind the launcher and the first thing I saw was FL Studio there. FL stands for Fruity Loops, add a En in between, and good job, here I am.
I inserted the term "poi" in Yuudachi's name in loving memory of my favorite shipfu in the game "kancolle" and to remember that mostly any community gets hilariously autistic when someone say "poi"
but in osu I was too late to use the name so I just added an extra i so it'll be okay

I found this name when I was deciding my username at SA:MP (San Andreas Multiplayer). First name was RageQuit, then Ragey (in a matter of months) and then finally Regay. Dunno why I chose this name, but it seems gay for me :>
Got my first videogame on my psp and said that i have only 7 characters for my nickname. So "cla" part of my name and "7997" because the brother of my best friend was born in " '97 ". I didn't really understand what was the meaning at the time because was a young child, but looked cool. "79" for symmerty
Oof came from the roblox meme/death noise and I added sama to the end because I'm a weeaboo.
I put ''The'' before my name
uh i was like 14 or smthn when i came up with this name xd
Honestly I got so uncreative when I wanted to make a name for myself and I realized that "randomperson8802" just wouldn't cut it anymore so I had to compromise and think of an animal and a rhyme
If I could change my name I would go to something like Pacha Kamaq (was my name on a few forums before I discovered osu!, originates from inka mythology) but I already grew as furry trash with the tiger so

My username "Kirika" is actually a character called "Kirika Akatsuki," from the anime Senki Zesshou Symphogear.

Uh.. Wanted a new username because the one i had before sucked ass. (Urjustbeats2me) So i decided to change it. Couldn't think of anything for a while, then came up with this. And this is what i've stuck with for a while now.
Sorry bad english*
My real name is leila and (lexporxti) it occurred to me to dedicate the name to an old friend.
curiosity: the x in my nickname are spaces, but I did not know what could be used u.u
So lex (leila) porxti (for you)
Leixporxti is more horrible

my ussername came from a random gammertag that xbox gave me back when i only play COD online, and a friend from online just started to call me "Any" because of my gamertag (Anyrocket477) and it like me for some reason, it becomes a simbol of me as a player and also decide to put it here on osu!
The tag came from a SA-MP community called [pGA] Pro Gaming Arena and Remilia is a character from Touhou.
my username originated from komaeda, who is from danganronpa lol,,,
idk i just thought of something random and i played a bit with the first syllable of my first name.
I thought "this looks cool i guess" so Im stuck with this username until I can come up with a new one :3

Just thought about being a pro but not really a pro maybe a former pro but less than that so yeah
It's a long story actually. But in short, my past username used to be mazewalker which I thought of because of the movie maze runner, but I hate running. And then I just adapted the name maze for short. Unfortunately it's taken on osu.
well, i was mostly playing the game at night, much to my parents' dismay since i was making (vaguely consented) love roughly to my keyboard
edit: hey there fella!
edit: hey there fella!
I was just wondering what name should I get. And this was the first cool name that passed through my mind.
well i think i was inspired from every vault names in the fallout series then added "thug" at the end to look cool... if it is really cool
oh I forgot to say where my past username(s) both came from
my teddy bear no joke please don't hurt me

My original name was a combination of 2 different anime girls and a video game girl (Hestia, Kinushima,and Mythra = Kystia -{somehow}.) I found my true love a few days ago in a weird event and now its Niyah from Xenoblade Chronicles 2. I like the spelling of the Japanese way lol.
I made my username rains because I like the rain. It's relaxing.
When I started learning french I really liked the word "cirque" (circus) and it eventually became my username.
Contre from "contre-jour" the photography technique
and Nox is just night in latin. I'm considering other usernames.

once i was playing tf2 with my retarded username pmi2rfq and i decided that it would be a good idea to change my name to left for killing to try to trick people (i was 8 at the time) and absolutely no body talked about me on the portal trade server map (honestly i didn't care i forgot about it and instead had fun getting a boat load of sniper kills) i never changed the name since (forgot to mention i got inspiration from left for dead that i loved a lot)
I'm using this nickname arround 9 years ago for every single game, The 'Destiny' its just because when i was 8 i use to like the idea that we all have a destiny, and we're here for something (i think i see that on a movie or something) nowadays i think we all have a destiny, but you can decide wich destiny u want to have, its not something prepared, its something you prepare.
the 611 its because that's my birthday date (june 11th)
i just wanted a cool username and i thought destiny was cool, was alredy used
so i added my birthday

From the word "Mystic" or "Mystical", but those were taken
My name originates from my like of french fries, and my experience with technology. I wanted to sign-up for minecraft a few years back and I've had this account for a while, soo... (Also iFry was taken and thats where the Apple came from. People think im a fruit)
I came up with it myself, combining "Ackerman" from AoT and "Raven"
Satsuki - desu
Actually from a chara name of an eroge VN that I really like, but it turned out that Satsuki is from the Japanese word "tsuki" which means moon and I happen to like moon a lot =w=
desu is just an add-on since the original was taken >.> and back then I tought adding desu would tell people to call me Satsuki in-game instead of desu (which obviously backfired because people called me desu instead REEEEE, but oh well) XD

I'm gonna be honest, but I had a can of Baja Blast with me when I was making my account. That's how I got the name.
First post so heyy uwu
When i was a wee child i used to play S4League and i was really into zelda, so my name ended up being zleda since zelda was obviously taken. That stuck for some time and then there were countles variations on it, e.g.
Zledaren
Zlayrus
Z-Senpai
Z-(insert anyting tbh)
And now im pretty settled with either z-coffee or CoffeeForLunch :^)

My first username in osu! was "Rain_wing". It's just because I like rainy days and Im always wondering to have a pair of wings to fly. So I combined them up.
My current name is "Lapluie". Its meaning is "rain" in French(actually "La pluie"). I think my current name looks nicer than the older one so I changed my ID.(PS:I cannot speak French at all:P)

I think I spent 2 days trying to think of a username
Although I don't remember exactly where my username came from I remember it having something to do with the weather outside and weeb stuff

I watch anime, and I watch No game No life. There is the character Ted held the name One True God. So I switch the God with Duce and add an OK at the end and there you go.
rip my username from an arms character but change the spelling a bit..
I got my username from my favorite anime, Darling In The Franxx. Since I saw the first episode I was drawn into it and I'm happy at where it ended, but it doesn't hurt to get a season two.

i have absolutely no idea
and no it's not from league

so. my username "sheepfish" is actyally pretty simple. "fish" because im pisces and "Sheep" because i was born during year of the sheep.
Most of my usernames/nicknames on various places of the internet are weather/nature related. I like the sunrise, so I decided to choose a username that reflected it.
i was thinking of a name to use for a throwaway spam gmail, when i somehow came up with tgnehs
my last name is shen, so i took that and flipped it over to get nehs.
the tg stands for "that guy", as i was called by my friends as "that guy shenpai" in public (ahh my friends are weebs). turns out tgnehs looked pretty unique and collected that i used it as my main.
meh, it sounds better than my old usernames TheShadows3dge and 5H33P_H473R

my Chinese name called Wang zishen,and i was called Wandown in English...and I have to.say it's strange

so.zisonzishen

I once read a Manga and one of the main characters name was Rai.
I was playing online games back then and the name Rai was taken. So I chose Xirai sounds nice and used that.
But in some games Xirai was also taken, so in some games I am known as Xirain. The "Irritant" / "lightly acid" rain, which is fun, cause I am working a lab and I know that Xi is short for irritant...

Mine came from a weapon from one of my favourite games, Bloodborne(specifically from The Old Hunters DLC). It means "Falling Leaf" and thought that It'd be a nice name go by. Also because I originally wanted to use "Naikou"(meaning Introvert and how I usually go by) but someone else already took it so Rakuyo it is.
My name is kind of my real name .. My name is Marco sooooo I thought MarcoPolo sounds funny and there it is _MarcoPolo =)
It's really easy to figure it out.
Everyone should be familiar to Solar Cell, which means "solar battery" I have a big impression to that word (and that source of electricity, probably) so I chose it to be my name.
And "27", hmm... 3x3x3. Illuminati confirmed
Compose these things, and we have "SolarCell27".

My first name on the Internet was my real life name but that was around 1995-96 and then the use of alias became more and more popular. This guy, I think it was a clan mate kept nagging at me that I had to get an alias. So one day when I launched q95.bat it said "loaded 1mb image" in the command lines and there it was. My very own alias. Laziest name pick ever.. you cant beat me there.
(q95.bat = single and muiltiplayer that featured multiplay over the impressive TCP/IP protocol)
(quake.exe = only singleplayer)
