My username doesn't really originate from somewhere, but it sounded cool. I used to use the name DivideByZero before, but when that username was alreaxy taken, I slightly changed it. Over the time I just got used to my current name and use it everywhere i register. :)

If anyone knows Vinesauce Vnny my username comes from him. He always makes silly names with an "o" sound or a "us" sound so i just made my own name out of that.

I don't think i'll have more. I wanted to stop at some points.
So it basically came from Final Fantasy XIII.

Well if i remember correctly it was from World of Warcraft, back in 2007? 2008? I was trying to have just Xero (Because I found it funny it sounded kinda like Zero , was young and stupid dont judge ok?) but it was taken. After a few minutes of figuring out clever names like Xeron, which again was taken, i stuck with Xeroll. And 17 is my "lucky number" so thats that. :)

I used to be DragonX611 until someone called me Dargin.

My name DragonX611 came from the old style YouTube names, [Name (Capital letter) number between 1-9999]
I liked Dragons (i was 10), I thought X was a cool letter, and dr asgons breath fire and 611 used to be the fire emergency line, i think at least...

One day I had to come up with a new username for some random account thing I can't remember now. I thought about one time I tried a watermelon, and my old username was "RandomStuff". So, I just randomly came up with "TheRandomMelon", and I've stuck with that name for the past 2 years.

I used to be a Legend of Zelda fan. My favorite dungeons were the water dungeons, I loved the name 'Lake Lanayru'. When I was making my summoner name for LoL, I was thinking, what name should I pick? Then I used Lanayurian because Lanayruian sounded a bit weird to me.

Ninjaofchaos , that's not difficult to explain ? No ?? 'k , I'll explain.

Ninja came from my passion of Ninjas ( Yep , I like Ninja's stuff and Ninja's stories. )

And "ofchaos" came from a second passion : Sonic

" Why Sonic is coming here ?!"

Because of Shadow's power , Chaos Control. It's my dreamed power that's I would have ( but we know that's it's impossible. ;) )

But now , Chaos take the definition of real "Chaos" ( destruction , evil , etc. )


My username is originate from Ninjas and Shadow , WOW. That's wonderful , no ? xD

I had a creative friend who loved to write books and usually had to create names for the characters in her story. This one time she was discussing it with me and thought of "GalaxyStarburst"
Now, this was back in elementary.

When I found this game, I thought "Welp, I have to create an utterly new username" because the ones I've been using were pretty dry now.
Then, for some reason, that memory popped up and ever since then, I've been using this name for a lot of things. Presently, I am in high school and she's still been a dear friend of mine even if she's miles away now.

Mine came due to group of friends that first introduced me to Osu. I had played a final fantasy themed minecraft server and we all had characters from the franchise that we went by nickname of while on the server. Edgar_Figaro (From FFVI) was my character on that server. So since it was that group of people that initially introduced me I figured to make things simple to use the same alias. I guess I've just never had a reason to want to change it and it'd be weird to do so now.
