Why are you... you?, Just curious. Options

[Happy_Dingo]

I was just wondering why some of you guys chose the user-name's you have now. No particular reason why, I just wanted to know. The reason why I chose "Happy_Dingo is because I randomly chose an animal of the top of my head and stuck the word "Happy" in front of it because I thought it would sound funny/ weird. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalatounge.gif) So yeah, why are you you?

[Hasfusel]

Because if I wasn't Hasfusel, I might be something like "Happy_Dingo". Which would suck.

[Oscar]

Well, my name username right now is just my real name.

But when I first came here, I had the username "007". And that wasn't exactly meant to be a James Bond reference. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) Seven is just my favorite number. Yeah, not that exciting....

[Happy_Dingo]

Yeah yeah... I always think it sounds like someone's sneezing when they say your name so nyeh~ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalatounge.gif)
HASFUSEL!!!

Whoops, bless me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

[Harvest Moon Rac...]

Harvest Moon + Favorite Animal= My Username.

[Noviwan]

my name with a W thrown in yup

[Charmy]

Had a topic for this. Xq

Anyway, I supposedly made it up, was my favourite name at the time, used it, someone mentioned Charmy the Bee, wanted to throw up, kept it anyway.

[Pumpkin Patch]

I have constantly changing dialog. I make up words and nicknames all the time. Eventually people get used to it start using it themselves but I just keep doing new things.

At the time I made this account one of my slang words was Pumpkin Patch. It was my default answer to any question I didn't feel like answering seriously. So when the site wanted to know what user name to give my answer was of course Pumpkin Patch (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) .

I still use pumpkin patch in real life conversations, but not as much as I used to :/.

[Calliope]

At the time I was reading books on Greek mythology. Nothing special, the name of the muse of epic poetry just stuck to me.

[Happy_Dingo]

Had a topic for this. Xq

Oh? sorry, didn't know. Then again, can you blame me for not wanting to search through all the previous topics to make sure? Not that I'm complaining.(hope none of that sounded harsh... 'cause that wasn't my intention)

Yay, learning about others!

[Charmy]

No worries. Xq I'd go through and post it so you could know more, but I also can't be bothered.
I just usually point out when I topic has been "Remade", this is like, the third one about usernames? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

Anyhoot, people get confused when I tell them my other main username.... Vether.

[EBWonder]

EBWonder was the nickname I recieved from the Evil Fairy Queen back in... oh, when was it....oh yeah....1997, when I started college.

[Twilight Wandere...]

Was originally Cloud_of_Shadows, which is a combo between two of my twin characters named Cloud and Shadow... Neither of which I use anymore.

And now I'm Twilight_Wanderer.

Which is because I kept falling asleep in my one computer class because the teacher read out of the book rather than actually let us touch computers, so he usually said "WAKE UP TWILIGHT" whenever I did because my hair is the colour of Twilight. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

And usually when I sleep my mind wanders... >3>

Buut, it also could be said I changed my username to sound similar to Totoro_Spirit, and there was a time we acted as if we were sisters. It helped trick people. >D

[Daniella]

Wellll.....


Daniella's my middle name. The end. :B

I'd prefer something else now, but I'm too lazy to bother about getting it changed.

[IdlersDream]

IdlersDream is an Oasis b-side and I've used it multiple times, it was a main username I used on basically everywhere since I was like 13 or so, cause I just liked the sound of it.
I don't use it anywhere else now but I never see the point in changing my username on forums and stuff cause it always ends up confusing people and especially since I've been IdlersDream for so long now.

But there is one website I wish I could change my username so bad cause it makes me sound like a 12 year old kid. -.-

[Ichigo]

I just like the name Ichigo.. as well as strawberries. So I thought.. Why the heck not? :D Not really a big explanation.

[BunnyChan360]

It's always so much fun to get a peek at other user's thought process.

As for mine... It's a long story, but here goes.

My username on Neopets was bunny_rabbot_360. It was the easiest bunny_rabbot username that wasn't used. Bunny Rabbot was my favorite Sonic character. One of my nicknames was BunnyChan since I was really into anime and manga.

For the uninitiated, "chan" is a Japanese honorific. Honorific are similar to titles, like "Mr", "Mrs", "Dr", etc. "Sensei" is the most well known honorific to the Western world (it can also be a word bey itself). The standard honorific is "-san" which is "Mr/Mrs/Ms". "-chan" is usually used for young children, girls, and cute things.

Basically, I was a girl and considered somewhat cute, so I was called "Bunnychan" by my friends. I really liked it, so I used it for about every site after that. It's almost automatic for me to use BunnyChan360 as my alias.

@Noviwan I had a feeling that was the case with yours.

@Ichigo Ichigo is a pretty cute name and I also like strawberries a lot (I just bought some today even).

@Twi Your name origin was actually pretty interesting. (I actually thought it had to do with Twilight, the book. No offense.) A wandering mind is not always a bad thing.

@EB Evil Fairy Queen? ... Do I really want to know....

@HMR You know "Harvest Moon Raccoon" really does roll off the tongue.... That's a good thing btw.

I think I'll watch this thread for a while... I might even give you the origin of my brother Axl's name.

[ZBoy]

It was my username for everything back when I was younger. I've thought about changing it, but it's the name I started on this site a year and a half back. It's just me.
