“Aeterna” (eternal in latin) is from the song Lux Aeterna, which has been used in the movie Requiem for A Dream, which means a lot to me.
“XVIII” represents my favorite card in tarot, The Moon.

My name used to be: *realName*FairyTail, and oh yes did I regret it. And yes I was obsessed with fairytail. Oh god.

Originally, it is a character's name from Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata series.
But the thing is, I got this username because of my friend who loved the said character. I wanted to prank him, haha. Anyway, after actually watching it myself, I ended up liking Eriri instead (As of November 15th, 2019 I currently have her as my avatar picture.), which some people don't like me for. Haha.

username: my real name

Idk, i just thought it would look cool

My little pony ^^

My childhood name i made up in a RPG

Phoenix came from the fact that it was the first thing I thought of when I was 11 and making a username that didn't include my actual name. Then I used the name for basically everything that I signed on. Soon I logged on to Osu and didn't really want to spend too much time making a name, hence Phoenix999Osu.

Ironic is that I used 888 as the numbers behind almost all my usernames, but I chose 999 for Osu instead. Why I did that, I'll never know.

Came from a popular Filipino food I thought of at mass and changed it that instant since I had supporter

.

My friend gave it to me one day and now I always use it

It's from my real name "Zaikov" and it's my real nickname as well.
(pronounced like Psych but with Z)

im not legally allowed to talk about that

So long ago my name was Sornoxi but a friend in discord made a typo and called me Cornoxi. Since then, people kept calling me corn or corn on the cob. Sometime later I was going through a phase where I placed the letter o with zero. o --> 0 So I started calling myself c0b and later I discovered osu! I felt like my name was too short so I smashed my keyboard and went with it. c0bica

I had all the user names which I always used taken by somebody else so I just reversed it

I dony really know, i used a simillar name in mc prev "XTheRedKiller" i was naming my self TheRedKiller but it felt not complete so i added an X and the red cuz its badass idk, to add extra badassness Killer is added, now i cut off the The and it has became XRedKiller cool enough

the city next to the one I was born in (my parents weren't that creative, apparently)

My name is Misa but i added an X because it looks cool

first: it's not related to the minions from despicable me, everytime somebody sees my name and says "banana" i slightly get triggered

ok, now for the origin of my username, well... my brother simply came up with it while we were trying to find an username to use on minecraft, but the username i chose for osu was Minion_Gamer, i began heavily regretting that username but i couldn't afford a supporter tag to change it, until i got gifted one on my birthday (cause i took part in a profile pic collab and didn't have supporter) and i finally changed my username to Minion24

First of all, my nickname should've been Wan-Day, but I spelled W-Day for some reason. WanDay is a misspelling for One Day, and I noticed that after few years of using that nickname

um about that.

i choose razor because im dead inside

Sasami-san is best girl so my reasoning should be clear

Adventure Time! When Finn said Shmowzow in one of the first episodes, so I thought it would make a pretty interesting username

first username was based off elfen lied's opening
people eventually just started calling me pirn instead of priest (alias from other rg communities) and it kinda stuck

totoro

Mine from my brain

I took my name inspiration from a character that made my childhood, Sonic, but with the "Mister" addressing.

My username comes from the first letters from my real name.

Arkiino was my instagram name in 2017 that i made up. No longer is anymore but i go by arkino still sometimes.

I originally had mine as "ducky" followed by number spam on MC but when I wanted to change it I tried just having it as "Duckee" and when that wasn't available I put an 'x' in front so xDuckee was born.

For me, I was in my room while watching a Youtube video on video game glitches and was eating ramen when I spilled my ramen on my phone, and just came up with my username because it sounded fun :3

I don't really think I need to say where or what my username comes from, it's easy to understand tho

It originates from "Prince of Persia: Warrior Within" where main antagonist's name is "Dahaka", numbers are random, sometimes I don't use them

"eblf" is derived from my (full) name IRL.
The 2013 is because it was the year in which I registered.
IF SOMEONE CALLS ME "elbf" A KITTEN WILL DIE IN TRAGIC CIRCUMSTANCES.

As for my name it was kind of random. I came up with back in the old days of Xbox Live. I kind of kept it ever since.

My username originates from the parody song of Two-faced Lovers - one of the most iconic wowaka songs back then in 2016. As a 12-year-old me at that time, I found this interesting so I took it as my first name to sign in to the game.

from the best mod

"PacoTaco" Came from back when our family computer was a shitty Mac mini that runs as slow as molasses. My dad really got me into video games and therefore got me in the minecraft craze. Since we were poor af back in the day, we pirated a version of minecraft that let you choose a username for doing LAN servers, and my dad picked "PacoTaco" as per to his definition, being "two funny words put together". I then pirated (heh, get it) his username creation and it kinda stuck with me since. The "03" is just my birth year. Not original, but funny how it came up ^.^

kinda old but yeah

I just found it like several years ago, already used in many games.
To find it just download Counter Strike 1.6 or CSCZ and play at any random map with expert bot and boom you'll meet the
"Quade"

Alright, long story incoming...

I guess it all started with an old email I made when I was like 10 or something. I watched a lot of Phineas and Ferb and I liked the character Perry the Platypus (Agent P), so I decided on the name Agent K as a nickname of sorts. The name stuck and I used it on pretty much every account I made, with some variations, of course including theagentofk. Nowadays I'm more fond of the variation AgentKilo I came up with (Kilo is how you say the letter K in the phonetic alphabet) but i never bothered to change it on osu

I always had problems with nicknames for games, and at first I wanted to register with "something-something 2309" or just a random anime name
But then I remembered about my OC, so I named my acc Casselle, and that's all I guess

I used to think the words Tin Can sounded cool, but i never knew what it meant and i used it as a username on multiple platforms, until one day when i googled it...

i was either grade 3 or 4 when i made this account and my friend at school called me dyl byl or smth bc my names dylan so uh, yea. i would love to change my user though lol.

i was named bommy985 because numbers were cool at the time, and it was the result of a mispelling of populermmos creeper named bomby,


my new name, i dont hd(only relevent to here, was actually avilible about 6 mouths ago so i changed my name to that, because i dont ever do good with hidden.

no, i dont care about my spelling :v

I think all of the drama for my username happened in the toilet seat right after I came home from school during late 2016. I mixed up a portion of my first name and last name and boom there an edgy name.

Think i was way too edgy for this world and added "official" thinking someone already took it but ehh that's all gone now.

I got mine from three words: Music, Rhythm and Man

n/a

How do I start...It started in March 2018 when I-

I think its obvious where i got my name from (unless someone does not know the world of Pokémon...)

amazing pokemon tho u have good taste

I had an old username I made when I was 7 so I thought it was time for a new one so I named my self after a deck in YuGiOh call madolche but I'm not the 1st person with that idea as it was almost always taken so I added bot to it with some inspiration from liquid chap

When I made this account, I was binge-reading anarchist theory and had recently completed The Conquest of Bread.

no idea to be honest

osu + stool = haha random

was lookin for a WoW name when i was like 10

i saw a tv remote and was wow i feel enlightened

not a clue

wanpachi = yamper

Well.. my name is Tom and i am on osu!

I was once a Lolicon..
Neko + Loli

I really like tomatoes. They give a lot of health benefits💕

it's a username i have been using since 2017. i just looked at a list of colors and found this name

The story of my name is so random.

I used to have lots of username before, in other games, but one day a few years ago I was like, okay, imma settle down and think about a name that I'll use always. I came up with Vex, randomly, I really like it, and most of my online friend know me as Vex, but obviously, it's very short and normally taken in most places.

So I thought, okay, imma add a sufix. And -tron came to my mind. So here I was, with Vextron. But I ended up using Vxtron in here, and I don't really know why hahah

Looking forward to change my name to the closest thing I can to Vex ^^

g

I chose this name because of my waifu

i Dont knoew

best persona 5 girl

https://youtu.be/KGQTkWJ5mU4?t=53

my username was supposed to be "PositroniX" but i was a dumbass and made a typo in the username when making this account... i've been thinking about getting supporter to change it to something less stupid

When I was 12 I faced the problem of choosing a nickname. And since I could easily beat my friends in games I chose Best, but for putting some numbers and technological things I made it Best02_. But when I grew up I understood it was a really bad name, so I decided to change it and use just my name, Albert. So I made my nickname CallMe_Al. And If I have to be sincere I kinda like to be "Al" also in real life. Maybe I will but the supporter for change my nickname but for now, the 12year-old-me will be attached to me...

thought it was cool

My username, "mrlacpeanut" had 3 parts: mr for mister (I don't know why I put that in ), Lac being my IRL name and Peanut being a translation of Lac into English

Lac means happy, but it can also mean peanuts.

a nickname given by an old friend in a certain class.
nostalgia. would be nice to see him again.

Some guy on league of legends told me while I was playing Twitch ("Jesus Christ... you're an actual rat") and it just resonated with me.

Glad I made your day, cheers.

TBH my username is just an entire r/boneappletea moment. my real IGN is TanGentFish, it was supposed to be PungentFish or PGFish.

I kinda just sticked to it bc it kinda sounded cool.

pretty self explanatory. one of my fav music genres

i think i did this already, but here we go again.


i went through a multitude of usernames, so on and so forth. we got a nintendo switch, and we played arms. there was a character named Min Min, and i honestly liked her character. obviously MinMin would be taken, so i did the most creative thing and replaced the 2nd M with a N, and that's how i got my username

ahhhhh, so that's why your name is so familiar. I used to main minmin when that game first came out.

OT: idk probably through some form of evolution millions of years ago.

someone gave me a nickname and i just added osu after it

my old username SimplyJay14 originated when I was thinking of a username, on my head was "I can't just use simply, jay as a username" then i went back to simply, jay and it sounded nice hence SimplyJay but the 14 meant something personal for me. 14 is the age when things started to brighten up for me since my bad childhood that consisted of me being raised by the internet better than my biological mother could raise me.



my current username FloatinSardines came from FlyingTuna. it stemmed from me that a joke type username would fit into the community and help me enjoy the game more hence i just used parallels from flying tuna to use this current name.

Alpha Centauri is my discord username, so I just decided to use that. It was taken though, so I had to use a variation of it, and here I am

I guess it started in 5th grade when I was the only kid in my class who preferred waffles over pancakes, then through my Xbox years I used WaffleAday, but once I got a pc I used TwoWaffleAday to be like the next step. But if I had a few extra bucks I would change it to SynDes cause that’s the name I now use on everything.

i wish arms got more updates

Mine originated in a DC game and I put Superman and zod together

well uh, it wasn't taken so i just decided to take it

oh and my previous names, I have a backstory on those. c u p c a k e was an inside joke between my best friend and I who passed away, and since cupcake was taken I just went with it spaced out. - Yoruka - was one of my first ever waifus, so that's why that name was that. But, I prefer scene. This user is such a great username and I will always go by it from now forth.

zhen shi de is the pinyin for the chinese characters 真是的, which is essentially an exasperated sigh put in words.

theres this kpop group i like called fromis_9, their fans are called flover so flover -> revolf -> revolfer cuz why na

You shouldn't ask that question

"Zel": My name I'll use in the Internet since I don't want to use irl name.
"-zatter": The combination of my Internet name mentioned above, "Zel Zatterson"
"Zero": Taken from "Hikari Zero" god I play Arcaea too much

Hello there.
Over the years I used many nicknames, most of them in minecraft exclusively. In the following post I will focus on the four major one. On osu I just used one name tho.

It all started with my YouTube Account I guess. I registered at YouTube around seven years ago with the username FriendzoneLp, not yet knowing the meaning of "Friendzone", but I thought it sounded kinda cool so I took this name. LP of course, as many in that era, because of me wanting to make some Lets Plays and I wanted to upload them on YouTube.

My second name, N00bieLP (only Minecraft): I took that name when I was creating a Mojangaccount. I was using that name because I just started out with playing (online) games and I took that name ironically. I was about 11 to 12 years old back then.

My third name, the name I use for the most time and the name I am currently using on osu, Battle net and many others is Aextra. One day my Dad and I were driving back home to the place where my mother and I lived and I wanted to use the time (it was an around two and half an hour ride) to think about a name I could take. I still had some YouTube stuff in mind and I thought of some introduction. I came up with the german phrase "Extremes Hallo" something something what kind of translates into "Extreme hello" or something like that. I then thought of that by itself as kind of boring and then I just took the beggining letter of my real name and put it in front of "Extra": Aextra was born. I then proceeded to use that name for basically everything. So basically this name was made up with this weird phrase / word play in mind.. xD unironically. I was around 11 to 13 years old back then.

My fourth and last name I'm focusing on right now is the name "Ultimate Wassakocho".
I currently am using this name on my Twitch account and my YouTube channel. It comes from my former chemistry teacher who pronounced the word "Wasserkocher", translates to water boiler/kettle/water heater. She was from either a north-west part from germany or north-eastern part, I cant recall it correctly. Anyways.. I really liked that pronounciation and I made it my name. This one was meant to be taken ironically I guess. I was around 13 to 14 years old back then.

That was a good summary of my name history, I hope I didnt spam here too much.

well er i play osu i play roblox im good at osu so osuproroblox there we go

I'm a cringey kid, I chose name a few years ago when I was still playing minecraft, I chose it as my username on ps4 minecraft, because I thought it rhymed, now my accounts have names like, "themajorgamer", my youtube is called "themajorking", when i played roblox it was "themajorkiel"etc etc

smashed my head onto my keyboard. Got a 4 letter name.

Do you regret it?

well for rename i had a similar format to a player who i used to look up to, kind of ironic how it's the opposite now, but hey, it fits.
'tors' is supposed to mean mountains, btw
as for my previous name, i made that up when i was way younger and stuck with it, shiney because i couldn't spell (and i liked sunshine or shiny objects, i dont rember actually) and 01 because 1 was usually taken.

I got my username from myself prtty much since i have the same username in geometry dash, roblox and of course osu! so yeah thats where my username originates from! UwU

I had a favourite bandori character...moca aoba, I decided to give her a little nickname and slowly it became my username.

Just a dumb username when I was 13.
Changing it at this point feels pointless.
