self-explanatory


i’ll go first:
unintentional reference to credits (one of my favorite rhythm game songs)
B0ii
Originated from an old username I had on some platforms when I was younger: Cool_Boi, since I just wanted to be seen as a cool dude.
Realized it was kinda cringe, so I removed the "Cool_" part, changed the "o" to a zero (0), and added an extra "i" to look cool (in a not cringe way I guess)

Felix isn't actually my real name. Felix was a name I found cool when I first made the account. The land part comes from me liking geography.

this one is literally on the main page of GD subforum though...
Jason X
I worked with computers from a very young age, I took them apart and put them together again.
And as it so is with having a 6-year-old play with PCs, I broke them, many of them.
My dad, when setting up the 10th PC, just named the local account Jason X, my name, and the roman number for 10.
Duck o-o
Some people came to my primary school and did a presentation on dementia
i then proceeded to call myself demented duck on xbox cos i like alliteration lol
WitherMite
was twelve, got a minecraft account I shared with younger brothers, couldn't think of a good name for it, we named it "DaWitherKilla" - 1.4 had just dropped, or was about to, dont remember.

later had a randomly generated xbox username ThickMite###### (random numbers I dont remember).

smash those two together to be slightly less cringe (only slightly).
DM FOR MUTUAL
It was the name of the Nintendo DS my mum set up for me when I was like 5, and it originates from my middle name. I've been using yoony as an online handle ever since. I'll use yoony1 when yoony is already taken, and at this point I use yoony1 alot more than yoony.
Jangsoodlor
My irl nickname + "handsome" in Thai
- cirno -
well I am a child I guess
nphuracm
My (current) username is almost my real name in pinyin just with all those aeiou's removed to be honest

To this day I still dont know why did I not just take my real name like I used to do that time
[ Sebastian ]
My real name in between brackets.
TheAngryNerd101
It basically tells you all you have to know about me. I have a tendency to ragequit hard when playing video games, and I used to have anger issues in general although it's a lot more tame compared to then. I'm also a pretty big nerd. That's why I'm an Angry Nerd, and why for some sites I used the alternate username of RagingNerd101. For sites where TheAngryNerd was already taken, I just added the 101 from my other one onto it. My username is also inspired by the AVGN.
Hap
Friend of mine couldnt pronounce my irl name and misspoke the har part to hap, since then ive taken hap as my name
Edgar_Figaro
Name of a character from Final Fantasy VI
Achromalia
etymologically: devoid ("a-") + color ("chroma") + deviation ("anomalia") = a deviation, devoid of color.

~ ~ ~

it described my experience with extraordinary fatigue and adaptive apathy during a time of despair. although i tried to reinterpret and repurpose it later, to represent something else that i've forgotten by now. i grew detached and disillusoned, then locked myself into a repression of emotion, despite attempting to exaggerate and magnify it with other people. i didn't really empathize with people very effectively, and had struggled to respond with genuine compassion and consideration.

i'm no longer dealing with that, though. not primarily. i've begun to grow out of apathy, and have come to appreciate human sentiment and vulnerable connection, although i'm still addressing a sense of alienation and isolation. i'm also still particularly immature in some senses.

i'd like to change my username, but i don't know what i want to use, what to represent myself with. i've yearned for something particularly meaningful while being aesthetically & pragmatically optimal for my own purposes.

I also like the BFB OST :)

OT: It's just my name surrounded by square brackets.
IWBTG
Roblox told me to not use my real name so i used a few letters from a name and made a mess out of it and i have used it since.
_Reset
original user on roblox was SliceDatBootay but then i got banned and got my user reset and then i just took the name and now im Res_ett
Satoko Hojo
before this nickname now, which is logical to be an anime character, my username was "maatdesu" and it's just a stupid name bc i just combined "mat" + "desu" that means "to be" or "is" in japanese, but means a older person too
Reyalp51
No
nominomu
no idea it just popped in my head and i kept it ever since
Paino
i once made a youtube channel called "piano tiles 2" but i mispelled piano for paino (i was like 10 or something). Anyways, I swapped the name to some other shitty mobile game then to PainoGaming, keeping the "paino" (cus im always in pain or something, and just a nice remembrance of my shitty name). Now, I just have it shortened to Paino.
PLAY EASY
My username is to tell people to PLAY EASY MOD!!!

ye EZ mod is really cool and underrated, I use it all the time! All you need is a good skin.


ok this is long

ok on ClassDojo my brother’s username was Gengar (his fav Pokémon I think) and I wanted to be gengar9 but i couldn’t so I was gengar2. later, in some mobile games, I changed it to gengar999. I thought having three nines was a bit weird so I randomly changed the last two to n.
Radiohead
I just yoinked it from the radio lol B)

I do honestly kinda regret it though and I'm probably gonna change it when I get the chance.

PapasConKetchup
I like french fries with ketchup a lot, so i named my accounts like that in my language
Lyawi
i can't

i liked the combination of "lya" and "wi" in my head
it doesn't have any meaning

your username is an American Osu player who joined in December 2022. Their only score is on 'My Love' that is worth 0 pp. Meaning that they currently have a whopping 0 pp for standard. They didn't even touch the other game modes before quitting. I wonder if they'll return someday and will suddenly become the best player in the entire game.
