Joseph_Lis
Привет всем. Мой ник: Joseph_Lis
Его я придумал в 4 классе, когда у меня в сарае жила маленькая лисичка. Назвал я ее Joseph, так как на тот момент смотрел Аниме JoJo. Но... Она погибла... Ее перехала машина прямо около моего дома...
С того момента я стал очень сильно любить животных, особенно Лис. Сейчас я ежедневно хожу в приют животных и кормлю их.
Вот как то так. Спасибо за внимание :3

Asphiee
came from the word "aspire" and the "phyre" came from "fire" which can be interpreted as passion.

JustABeginner
Oh no. I hate it. What did my 13 year old self thinking about this username...

Read it with caution! Maybe secrets revealed?
I played a game called "Pixel Gun 3D". I changed my username to "JustABeginner" to show that I'm a noob at that game.

Then, I got introduced to osu!. Before this name, I wanted to name something - which is even worse, "HowToSurvive". I mean, the username had taken so I named it JustABeginner.
Yeah, not that interesting, but rather my wild imagination.

Speaking of usernames, maybe I should create a survey whether or not I should change my name.

Also, how did you find your username, to the person below me?

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.

"Zel": My name I'll use in the Internet since I don't want to use irl name.

I already answered them in this thread but my dumbass self want to combine them here.

Well, at least it's complete.

No idea. I just had this name forever and never really changed it.
NinjaMeals
When I was younger, I used to climb all over everything "like a ninja." My name IRL is also Mila, the beginning of which sounds like "meal." In an attempt to annoy me, my parents started calling me "NinjaMeals" and it has just stuck with me. I started using it for everything due to my inability to come up with anything else, and now I just don't have the heart to change it.
minhperry
minhperry

Originates from my Minecraft username, I was very active on an gamemode on a Minecraft server called "Hypixel Skyblock". Then I got bored of it and switched to osu!.
"Minh" is my irl name. "Perry" is my nickname when I was in a primary school

Pretty funny story. Back in late 2014-2015, I found that my previous name was just visually unappealing and difficult to say. So I wanted something that resonated with me. Of course I played Minecraft for a while, and I've always wanted the implementation of a sapphire ore. So I named myself after it. Except I completely misspelled the word and ended up with SapFireMC. It wasn't until a year later that I actually found out, but at that point it was already too late. I never did end up changing from there simply because of all the people that knew me by this alias, so that's how I've kept it to this day
Adinda
Huh you probably can know my name come from, by just seeing it
Negroloid
Imagine a vocaloid such as Gumi with an afro and black Air Forces. That's me but better.
Lebros
uhm alright, once i started playing "Geometry Dash" (GD) in around 2015-2016 i didn't have a constant username, so i was using TNT, Diamond Block because i played "Minecraft" these days also. So, in GD i looked at a catchy nickname - "Zobros" and I found it interesting w. i just took ending of Zobros -> "bros" one and i come up with smth at start -> "Le"(idk why) this how my nickname was born. Now in other games i use my new nickname and I want to change it in osu! but i have no money rn :(
Anyway sry for my bad knowlenge of English im trying to improve it by forums like this ^-^

Don't ask
noioiu
Until like June 2019 I used this username for pretty much every site I used. The yuki part comes from an old friend that, for whatever reason, used to call me by that name. I can't remember where the reido part comes from tho.
Tbh by now I regret choosing that name. It's kinda gender revealing and it sounds stupid :/

I took "edd" or "double d"'s name from ed, edd n eddy (which was one of my favourite shows as a kid) and added an "n" to the front of it, nedd.

Reminder that my username is composed of my initials, i.e. the first letter of each of my names and last names.

And the 2013 is just the year in which I created the account, it's a trend I use to do in several other places. For example my twitter is "eblf2016" because I made my twitter in 2016 and so with other accounts.

I really haven't thought this trend was so uncommon. And people that know me irl will easily recognize who I am.

isabelle_kast
The story behind my username is quite funny.
You see my first name is Lula, Isabelle is my middle name but I've always preferred it XD. As for 'kast' it stands for the initials of my 2 anime guy crushes from over a year ago who were Karma Akabane and Shoto Todoroki, ik its cringey XD but i like the sound of it and it works for me so :)

Old Nickname 2017-2020 - Eur-

I have ran out of ideas on this nickname.

New Nickname 2020-Present - Eye of Skadi

I've seen Skadi from Arknights a lot of times and it's been, my favorite Operator. If I hear her name "Skadi" it reminds me of
from DOTA 2.
Dundee
my name came from a spin off of plainrock124, but since i was a dumb 5th grader, i liked weird names, so there came theasianduck124. Although I do prefer duck127 or just duck now
soyasauce
I saw one of those “free money hack on steam” and the dude name was something... I can’t remember. But my mind last time read it as Volkan for some reason, and I decided to copy it and I have been using it ever since, had a few modifications like putting ‘NA’ at the beginning
_Hades
Hades -> mythology. God of death.
ClevelandsMyBro
idk, when i was at 8th grade i was a big fan of f-777 (i was playing geometry dash back then, f-777 was also really popular in the gd community). when i was going to school one day, i was like "hmm, what's a cool username??" f-777 was known for his fast tempo music. so i thought of a synonym of fast and came up with 'nitrous' but it was a bit hard to spell. so i changed up 'us' with 'z' because my name also starts with z.

23 was my favorite number. it was really just my absent number but it grew into something special.

so, Nitroz23, but where did the 'thereal...' came from? when i was making an osu! account, nitroz was taken! (yea guess who that is...) idk really remember if i tried nitroz or nitroz23, but in the end i put 'thereal...' infront of nitroz23. and here we are today.

The peak of my osu! career

god know what'll happen if i didn't put 23 in my username

DeletedUser_11837957
Usually, when I talk to my friends my response to some of their statements was just 'Understandable'. Unfortunately, during this time the "Understandable, have a nice day" meme came into fruition, and so I've just said it was based off a dead meme since.

Now it's been my alias for just over a year now, along with my pfp/avatar, Hat Kid from A Hat In Time.

I usually go by TheName'sGregoryAndounuts everywhere else, but since I was going to be joining an EBA/Osu community I thought that I'd choose something more fitting. So I tried to think up a name for a new EBA member and well, this is the best I could do.
