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 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 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

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 ^^

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...

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

Lac means happy, but it can also mean peanuts.

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.

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.
