I wonder how many staff answers there are that haven't been edited in by OP, considering last edit is 7 years ago lol
yahiro kira
I was learning japanese. Saw yashiro then thought. "is yahiro a word?" looked on random websites if it actually means something and it does? then I added kira because kira kira seems weird. and then turns out kira does mean something i think. and it kinda matches with how people describe me too so well it kind of checks out I guess. Thus the name yahiro kira was born

A bunch of times people will think of a username related to their childhood, whether they do it by intention or not. This is not always the case, however, some people chose theirs because they either liked the way it sounded or thought it was cool. Everyone is different, of course.


For me, I chose "drum drum" for a reason I don't entirely remember. But I believe it's based on my past fascination with drums of all sorts. When I was a child my grandmother bought me a cheap Indian drum which I loved a lot (and then it broke of course). Around middle school I had a Djembe drum that I loved to play a lot. And finally in High school my parents bought me an electric drum kit (which I never anymore use because it lacks a tom and doesn't sound that great). Now here I am playing Taiko on osu!, funny how life works.

Keiger
Surreal, oh boy....Well, I was looking for a solid username to sue after switching from Goldenjacket as a kid lol. The first thought it my head was goldenjacket56, before I ended up jsut randomly coming up with the word Surreal. I guess it could have rooted from the fact my favorite style of art is Surrealism. I took away the ism, and ended up with Surreal more than likely.

I go by Keiger now, as I'm part-German, part Ukrainian, and Keiger just seemed like a p cool name that sort of sounded....German I guess? Idk I just thought it was kind of cool.
SniperBuddha
