    I think I've posted in threads like this one before... xD

    I wanted a long, strange username and was playing around with lots of different weird and random words. And I thought something pokémony would be nice, and something with chibi in it... and then it must have just come to me. I was talking the ideas through with a friend, also.

    Red is a main protagonist from the Pokémon Special Manga. Hawt means hot. If you don't know what chibi means, google it. Pelipper is a pokémon. Red Hot Chili Peppers is a band.

    Red's Hawt Chibi Pelippers isn't something I'd like to change from, even if username changes were still available. I had this name on an alt account first, since I thought it was a bit too loco to keep on my main... but it grew on me.

    My name just came from being an Ace Attorney fan, namely Trucy's Mr. Hat.

    It's odd, considering that Trucy's not my favorite character. Oh well. Maybe CoffeeAndAllThatJazz would've been better. Maybe.

    Either way, I still like this name. Plus, my favorite one, Dawn, is totally unoriginal and misled people into believing that it was from Pokemon when it's really from Castlevania, I believe.

  • Okay seriously these threads need to stop, this is like #3.

    Anyway I came up with this weeaboo-ish username when I was a really big weeaboo (well online at least), so I thought combing two of my favorite things would make it awesome.

    It did not turn out as planned.

  • My username was originally a joke username between some old friends.
    'Captain' referes to the Call of Duty games and how me and the old friends use to go on it all the time. The 'Fabio' part refers to my love for football and if you didn't know, Fabio Capello is the England Football coach, so I got the nickname 'Fabio'.

    Pretty random really.​

  • Interesting names here. My name comes from a nickname my mother, and ex had given to me. It's just short for Autumn.

  • I sat down and went, "Hmmm...what's the one thing I do in pokemon that is most prominent, most obnoxiously omnipresent?" I abuse Pickup. I constantly carry around 3-5 of them, except for when I'm playing through the story. Then, even still, I have just one.

    miju is short for Mijumaru and -kun is a Japanese honorific. Simple.

  • Erik is the name of the Phantom of the Opera given to him in the book of the same title by Gaston LeRoux.
    Destler is the surname given to him in the 1989 version of PotO starring Robert Englund.
    It's the most canon surname, and so, yeah.

    It's a constant tribute to my love for Phantom && musicals in general.

    "Pyrax" randomly popped into my head when I was thinking of a username D:
    Speaking of which, it kinda sounds like a combination of "Pyre" (Or perhaps "Pyro") and "Axe".

  • Retribution comes from, well, Retribution. Sadly, it doesn't really mean anything to me, apart from being quite a cool username. XD My past username, Espeon~, comes from my love for Espeon obviously. XD And Superjub is a username I use on loads of websites. XD It is based of a cheat code on Star Wars Battlefront ("Jub Jub"), and its stuck since. XD

  • I was going to put my username just as a load or random numbers, but it looked stupid so I literally typed in the word numbers as a joke, didn't think I'd get the username to be honest.

  • Roswell does NOT come from Roswell, New Mexico, before any of you start on that again. I never intended on choosing this username because of that place or because of aliens, even though I am well aware of the mythology behind it.

    See this bishounen right here? That's Roswell Branthèse, necromancer in the game Yggdra Union (and Yggdra Unison, its spinoff). He is one of my favorite characters in the series due to his appearance, demeanor, and elegant aura, so I chose his name as my current username.
