LordRaika
oh a good thread to answer the common question on my username in osu....

"why Lord + Raika?"
Raika as my name, its everywhere ( on lots of forum, game id, character name and stuff )

and Lord, i remember now...
Maybe its since i play Ragnarok Online 7 years ago, my ONLY best character is LordKnight
being ALWAYS the top LordKnight with highest hp, critical and atk while leading whole guild to win a War of Emperium.
also known as the best Frenzy/Berserk type LordKnight >w< , always win 1v1 LK vs LK in Frenzy/Berserk.
People and friend on the guild always said "my lord, milord asdfasfda" smthg like that... ah its sooo nostalgic X_X

same goes to some of my friend that love Assassin Cross, having the name Cross on the username or X on them >w<

Lanturn
My favorite Pokémon. Plain and simple. This and sometimes adding "88" on the end (lucky number) has always been my name whenever Lanturn isn't available. That's why I was previously known as Lanturn88 on here. stupid Lanturn_old

From Neopets (my first online game), to the Nintendo Forums, to MMORPGs like Gate to Heavens/WoW, and every other website you can think of. I've always used Lanturn/Lanturn88


Also, if I ever made a female Character on an MMORPG or something, I'd use Lantina as the name for it. So I guess I kinda have this as an alias too.

good-looking letters/characters as the main priority, then somehow it became a mixture of phase and face. pronounce it as you wish or call me Zahp or whatever, lol

My first name is Oliviya, but I 'westernized' it by removing the y. The numbers also bear a meaning.

I had a friend that I would game with a lot. When we first started he suggested our names match in some way. So he gave me Infernocash, and he would use Blazebucks. Been using this name for almost every game ever since.

i just happen to like ninjas... the reason why i added 1 and 4 to my name: "ninja" was already taken.. and the meaning of the number 14 in my country's lottery is "drunk" (i laughed when i realized that.. because i hardly get drunk...) lol

Think it like this, most letters can be replaced with numbers because they resemble them visually

that.. and.. i was out of ideas.. haha
plus i wanted to use a nickname that couldn't be misinterpreted (i used unnAMD in a couple of games..which led into people asking me in-game "are you an ADMIN?" in spanish ...believe me.. it happened a lot of times... even in games that the admin is clearly labled "ADMIN".....)

My former username was "TheRageGamer" (because of my temper while playing osu seriously).
I just took the japanese word for "Rage" and got "激怒" (Gekido). But since someone already took the username "Gekido" I added "-kun"...
Cool story, bruh.

froggydojo
Back when I was 10 I was trying to think of a new username for Minecraft (it was 2010 :/) and I had a dream about a Dojo that trained frogs. My OTHER username, Stupid Frog Monster the 3rd, is a combination of about 3 to 4 different names. Frog, being froggydojo. Stupid coming from a story my cousin told me about a bird him and his friends called Guardian Stupid because it would always fall of off the branch it was perched on. Monster came from the picture I use on Steam. I'm not sure where the 3rd came from though, I'm only a 2nd in my family.

I used to be in a clan on PSN called Faded and everyone was choosing really badass sounding names like Faded_Spirit, Faded_Hunter, Faded_Killa. So, me being me, I ruined the badassery of the roster and went for Faded_Lamp and everyone facepalmed and laughed at the same time. It kinda stuck and now I use it for almost everything.

Recondito
When I was 9 years old, I had no idea about what does a "MMORPG" was, so my cousin showed me a game named "RuneScape" and Recondito in spanish means "Very hidden" so I used that name because I found something that was absolutely unknown for me.
I liked it, so I keep it nowadays (Got 6 years using it).

My name's initials are CYL. So I added a few more letters behind to make it sound like a word. It also suits me because I'm usually silent.

Not because the letter "u" appears in the word 'baguette' and thus is surrounded by the initials of the Roman God Fornax and the Greek God Zeus? The numbers surely correspond with a certain code, too.

The first part of my name was stolen from this guy that used to play Roblox because I was super un-creative back then (when I was like 12 that was my life) and the second part I got was when I was in hospital for an operation and when I was watching TV there was this comedy show on about this guy thats hobby was to smash watermelons open with his head and I couldn't stop laughing and since I just had an operation it felt like I was getting cut open each time I laughed. Yeah a fair journey for just a username haha 8-)

There was a game on the lego website which was about hacking and you had these different powerups and programs and viruses you could use to defeat the 'enemies' on a grid format. The villain had the nickname disarray and I liked the definition of the word.

But it was taken, so I made in_Disarray instead.

That game also had nothing to do with lego at allxD
