Mine came from multiples changes since years ago. I guess I'll keep this one now. c:
srJarN
As lazy as i am sometimes. I just went with mashing my name and surname together, meh. Jarand<>Ram.
Even tho i've used other nicknames in the past like Red_Elite, Razae and JarN, i always come back to the original JarandRam
Blue-
My irl name is Blue, so. Blue. Pretty simple.
Rean
my username originated from Reanimate which is a name i go by on many other games. Reanimate Came into my life after i felt i reanimated my life after a failed suicide attemt. i am currently doing much better however and ReanHardt came into play from wanting to keep Reanimate in my life but also my favorite last name being ReinHardt
So theres my username for you :)

I like OG names :)
hnmk13
Mine came from my performance on games and my favourite number.It's the first letter of four words:heroic,noob,μαγκας(badass in Greek) and Kostis(my name).
Crazz
My username originated from a friend that was trying to say my name "Chris". :D
He somehow managed to screw completely up and said "Crazz" ^^
Now a few people actually call me by that username xD
I sometimes add "ify" to it, if Crazz is taken :S
Jiroski_old
Well, Jiro is my Japanese name and so I wanted that name to turn into a username.

Jiro is pretty commonly taken so I had to switch it up a little, give it some flava ~

Jiro....jiroki....jirokai...Jiroski!
freedg
Way back in elementary school (probably 6th grade) our class had an art project to make a sort of name tag to display outside the room, and I think it had to be a nickname or at least something that meant something to you. It was nearing the end of the time given to think of an idea, and I basically said whatever, and decided that I use the first thing that came to my mind that wasn't a word, which was freed (yes I know freed is a real word, I figured that a little while later). There isn't any actual meaning behind the world, just thought of a random word. The g is from the first letter of my last name.
Cloudx5
I have 5 cats, one of which is called cloud (the stupid one so he's not really classed as a cat)
Toine
It is my own first name! So it was easy to remember login details. Turns out you dont even have to login all the time since it will just automaticaly connect. But hey its also easy for people to recognize me since its so simple.
Runiel
Runiel = Ruby (From the series 'RWBY') + Daniel (My real name)

And the Vermell is just there because why the heck not.

Tornado
Some years ago,I decided to make a nickname and the best think I could think was: TornadoWing

Reasons?Its too long,I wont explain :P Why would you get interested to learn it?

4 months ago My nickname was TheLastOne12 which was also my FPS Game nickname.No matter how random that name looked,I liked it a lot and it had too much meaning but I really hated when people were calling me "The" People were so idiot that they didn"t call me : "Last" So after I bought my supporter tag I wanted to change it to: TornadoWing

But I"ve also seen that the simple "Tornado" wasnt taken :D So I claimed it immideatly before anyone else does xD
Danshi_old_1
+Danshi!!
vizzy
I used to be a huge Bleach fan, so my MAL name is Vizard. Several years ago I started up an IRC channel and one of the regulars called me "vizzy," short for Vizard. It pretty much stuck ever since then.
coolguy23_old
Was thinking of an awesome name to use when playing Counter Strike with friends. then it just kinda stuck with me.
EXoR
Thought the great Excalibur sword, since it would be probably already be in use in many places, i tried to be creative and got from Excalibur to Excarius.

TeeArctic1
One fateful day I decided that I needed a proper alias online. That the days of self-loathing due to names I made as 9 years old would come to an end.

Thus, I sat down and I thinked aahard about it.

I live up north, close to the arctic circle. So I decided, I would include Arctic in my name. I was also from Norway, which has a history of Vikings. Thus came the tragedy that was xXArcticVikingXx...Keep in mind that I was only 11 or 12 at this time.

Sometime after I started using this horrible name, I made an account in an MMO, can't remember which one. I made my character and joined a guild. Nobody bothered to type my full name, so they just called me Arctic. Simple and precise. After that they decided to introduce me as 'The Arctic One' to new guildmates. Which then became 'The Arctic 1', which due to a misspell then became TeeArctic1. And I liked it. So therefore, my name is now TeeArctic1. Were I ever to have multiple accounts, my second would probably be named TeeArcticToo.
FINGERLOCK
I ate a raspberry while playing Counter-Strike:Global Offensive

walkro
Runescape, lmfao. It was first suggested to me as Walkrobeart and it kinda stuck with me as I played different games. I sometimes play with shortened versions of my username like this one... Walkro or walkrooh. I also found out not to long ago Walkro comes from a company that produces rice somewhere in Germany... So that's that. I found it kinda funny cause I'm Asian and like.... You know... Username and the company... I'll stop lmao. :o
Yona

Ryu Sei
I don't have an idea. The name is suddenly appears in my mind after obtaining my very first supporter tag.
Safyire
I did a thing where I took the word "sapphire" and screwed it up so bad it looks good

Pokemon Sapphire is my #1 favorite game of all time aside from osu! and I thought a regular word like "sapphire" was too bland. So I...butchered the spelling?

Still ticks me off how people pronounce my username like "say-fy-yur" and not like, the word it actually came from.

Me and my friend Cole were having fun together on the playground and decided to make up an imaginary animal called the Eloc(Cole backwards.) my name is sometimes Eloc360(don't know where I came up with the 360 I probably just thought it sounded cool when I was younger lol.
