yamane-kurou
Yamane Kurou (山根玖浪) is my character in a story I write with one of my best friends, though Kuro (黒 = Black) has been my nickname for a very long time
AgrarianSkyX
Mine came from a Minecraft modpack called Agrarian Skies :P I changed Skies to Sky and decided to add an X on the end cause why the hell not ;)
Midget
I'm very short for both my age and my countries average height. Also a lot of nouns in my country end with -as so I just ended up with ''Midget-as'' :D.
Mandrias
So a long time ago I started to get addicted to MMOs, not as addicted anymore but I still play them a lot, so I made up 6 names for characters (3 Male names and 3 female names.) These names were ones I made up and are usually the only names I ever use.

I decided that out of my 6 names I go by I needed to pick one to be known by on websites and also just to have one name for all my accounts to make life easier(Having to attempt to log into websites 4-5 times because you forgot what name you used is annoying.) So I used the name of the character I was playing at the time in Dark Ages of Camelot and added an 87 to the end of it because it was an account name and I figured it would probably be better to put numbers at the end of it just because it's an account name not a character name.

Now I use it everywhere. Lately I've been leaving the 87 off of it when people can actually see the account name. For Osu it doesn't really matter though because I suck so bad that no one will notice anyways except in this thread. :D


( If I make it to the top 20K I might change it to "Mandrias", but I just don't feel the need to get better anymore so I just kinda play songs I find fun right now so that's probably not happening.)

Mine comes from my nickname and part of a way my mum called me as a kid...
Well in fact main reason I picked up this nickname is that Kirby is my favourite smash bros character, cuteness :oops:
(in French coeurbee is pronounced about the same as kirby)
Ekoro

Scintillate
i literally looked in a dictionary.. and tried to find a word that looked cool. this was many, many years ago.
Dollmaker

Okoratu
I think I started learning Japanese 2 years ago and then in order to get rid of my old username in League i then took random Kana and combined them until i liked the outcome.

Turns out it misspelled the tsu in okoratsu and forgot the s but whatever i grew to like it.
Veloalopus
I guess you can say it's pretty easy to figure out:
The Chocoboeater from Final Fantasy 10. (I beat the dam guy! xD!)
NeVMiku
My name...huh?

Me and my 4 other friends used to love playing DOTA at internet cafe. At the time a teacher was leaving the school so we formed a 'team' and put NeVe12 in front of everything.

We ended up with something like NeVe12Mo12e, NeVe12d1e blah blah blah.

We played a game against a random group of people and lost.

That was around 4-5 years ago and I kinda stuck with the name having used it on most things that will allow me to.
daredakke
I like Hidamari.

Yuno best girl.
Shigoto
sway = since i started pc games (2012)

Eun-Fox
Eun = flourishing in korean I think
-shrugs- I have no clue why I named myself Eun-Fox but I do love Fox's they're my favorite animals.
Shrik
Mine originated from runescape :P.
Asked my brother for an account name. He said shrik cause sounded like shrek. There was no shrik available so I used shrik11 for 4 years up until 4/5 years ago where I switched to plain Shrik
AdamMZ
My name.
M stands for my first name. Z stands for my last name.
c[[ [ c[[ [ c[[
From good ole Toribash, it started as "imaidiot" because i was really bored so i just made a name and it stuck.

Since then i've done some changes to it, making it into DaIdiot.
Some sites required a number, so i just chose to put a 5 on the end (sometimes 737), making it into DaIdiot5.
Then i got a little tidier in the grammar and made it into TheIdiot (losing the 5 in the process).
And then in a steam group i was in, we had to add an underscore at the end of our names, and it just stuck there.
And here i am. TheIdiot_, in the flesh.

Well...
"Magazine" was my Steam account name (still is), when I played FPS's more (you know, a weapon magazine), then I couldn't bother to change it once I more or less stopped playing those.

The "M8" in my Osu-name though is originated from being friends with some British folk, and since I'm pretty sure a lot of you know that M8 or "mate" is a British way of saying "buddy" etc, I included it in my name because I wanted to and it fit the name... somewhat.

Reileky
Formed my name from the words Electric and Neon.
Even tho most people thought its like a Pokemon name, its not ;-;
GSG95
I used to play Counter Strike 1.6 a lot. And I would almost always pick the GSG-9 player model when playing in the counter - terrorist team. I like that player model so much, I decided to name myself GSG-9. I got bored of that, so I removed the dash and added a 5 at the back. -BOOM- And thus, my username was born!
Illeria
Years ago in a time untold...I read two books quite some time apart from each other. They're called Eragon and Vampire High...

So yeah, I took one elven city from Eragon and the vampire girl's name from Vampire High and boom. Illeria was born.
-[Jess]-
my chinese name+my english name
Poofie
I am a little goofy, and kinda weird.. So few of my friends were calling me Poofie.. So that's why i thought Poofie* would be great ;-;


*Originally it was Poofiecutieface
Eminent
There was a member on a different forum I used to frequent named "Valiant" and I really liked how his name was just a single, yet powerful, word that he chose to represent him. I basically just searched the internet for strong words that I would be okay to represent me and wound up with "Eminent"
[Ene-Chan]
My love for BEMANI
ERA Puzzle
I love Starcraft 2, and back about a year ago there was a pretty relevant player whom I enjoyed watching named Puzzle. I really liked the name, and the idea of a one word name - a lot of Korean sc2 players do this - Life, Flash, Innovation/Bogus, Creator, etc... However, I liked Puzzle the most, and stole the name for myself. T~T Sorry Puzzle. I've been going by that name ever since then, and since Osu was music based, I decided to add the DJ in front of it for fun.

My handle before then was Ahitsu, which was a name I created personally because I liked the sound of it. Nothing special, just my own creation.
