What does your username mean?
 
Okay a lot of members have got some funky usernames that make no sense to me! And i'm not just talking about the japanese ones!

So what does your username mean? Does it have some hidden meaning? Or are you just stringing some cool words together?

I wanna know!

Cheesymitten July 17th, 2009 5:42 AM

I'm stringing two words together :D
Cheesy (I loved this)
Mittens Just came out the top of my mind

Raykon July 17th, 2009 5:48 AM

Well mine isn't really funky or anything at all but all it is is the first and last name of a character I like of a show. That's all really.

Terrain July 17th, 2009 5:57 AM

I got my username from the word "terrain" and the names Terra (from Final Fantasy VI) and Kain (from Final Fantasy IV) merged together. (or was it Terra and Maduin, also from FFVI?)

So I guess that's what it means-- that I'm a FF fan...and that I am concerned about a location's terrain. XD

Alexithymia~ July 17th, 2009 6:00 AM

My username is made out of some of my favourite things..

Blue [Favourite Colour]
Snow [OOH NICE WEATHER!]
Houndoom [Favourite Pokemon]

Anxiety. July 17th, 2009 6:06 AM

Anxiety. (Pronounced anx·i·e·ty)
1. A state of uneasiness and apprehension, as about future uncertainties.
2. Psychiatry; A state of apprehension, uncertainty, and fear resulting from the anticipation of a realistic or fantasized threatening event or situation, often impairing physical and psychological functioning.

There. The definition of Anxiety.
I like the way the word looks, and what it means.

Mapl3Syrup July 17th, 2009 6:10 AM

I used mine once, and I guess it stuck. I want to change it, though.

Vyro July 17th, 2009 6:15 AM

It means exactly what it says.

Darkly the flygon

a flygon named darkly.

The Scientist July 17th, 2009 6:31 AM

Neiteio is the Korean name for Xatu.

It's also my name. Coincidence?

Zero° July 17th, 2009 6:35 AM

My name means:
Zero, main character in my Zelda manga.
the hero of light, that's Zero's title, just like Link's was the Hero of Time.

♣Gawain♣ July 17th, 2009 6:38 AM

Rigel in Arabic means Giant's Foot, which implies Orion's foot.

Legobricks July 17th, 2009 6:42 AM

オレンジ = Orenji = Orange
Is the name of the yōkai in my avatar, from the game 東方幻想郷 〜 Lotus Land Story.

Graceful July 17th, 2009 6:52 AM

Graceful? I just thought it up lol XD

cressalia2001 July 17th, 2009 7:09 AM

One day I just decided to randomly add 2001 to the end of my name. Then, I was skitty2001, then pichu2001, then sasusaku-rulez-2001, and now cressalia2001. You know, might've been in 2001 when I decided to add 2001. Or else, I was trying to make the impression I'd been around a long time. Probably just random numbers though. I was in between 1st and 2nd grade at this time in 2001. *shrugs* Does t really matter though?

Archer July 17th, 2009 7:31 AM

Contrary to popular belief, Archer is named after a dog I knew called Archer. Fun fact! And I don't use Ethan, because it's already taken, and I want a simple name. Now I use it everywhere, anyway.

rando serian July 17th, 2009 7:39 AM

My name is a combination of two languages... Rando is German meaning Strong Defender, Serian is a combination of two words from another language, one meaning Pathway the other meaning Life & Death. So Rando Serian means "The Strong Defender of the Path of Life & Death".

Soari July 17th, 2009 7:39 AM

I got my name ''Soari'' from Mirmo (Anime) Actually, The name of the character in Mirmo is Saori so yep instead of ''A'' i added ''O''

Gummy July 17th, 2009 7:55 AM

The username Gummy actually has two origins, but the most well known one is that it simply shows my love for gummy bears. As for the other origin, it's actually very similar to my real name minus a few letters (but don't waste your time guessing at that :p)

Lo~li~Pop July 17th, 2009 8:13 AM

Well I always wanted the username Lolipop, but it was already taken and I didn't really wanted to change anything. Then I came across this site and I was so happy that you could use any character. If I had known how to use the "alt" combos my name have been a little bit different, and yes I can change it, but I don't want to. ^3^

I Laugh at your Misfortune! July 17th, 2009 8:14 AM

My username is a carefully selected catchprase from a popular Web animation that perfectly demonstrates my inividuality. :D

good god, I'm a real life Mary-Sue

Gabri July 17th, 2009 8:14 AM

My username is the Italian word for "truth".
I chose it because I liked its sound.

~*!*~Tatsujin Gosuto~*!*~ July 17th, 2009 8:42 AM

I just had this design ~*!*~ in my head at the time and I love annoying people with it everytime I make a new thread, and as for Queen (since many adults at my school call me that because of my name being Latifah) and also since theres already a King Boo, thats why I put Queen and then Boo because I love Boo


:t354:TG

machinegun777 July 17th, 2009 8:46 AM

Well, my username is pretty self explanatory

Anastasia.R July 17th, 2009 8:58 AM

Anastasia is my name. The ".R" part ... is still a mystery. Maybe is stands for my favorite color, "red" or somethin'.


JoltIce July 17th, 2009 9:04 AM

It's supposed to show how much I love Jolteon and Glaceon ^_^

Aro-kun July 17th, 2009 9:15 AM

My username comes from Aros or should i say Sora XD. I didn't wanna use the name Sora(probably would have to be Sora65638429 lol....) and i didn't really want the name Aros. So i got rid of the S and put kun to make it seem japanese. Aro-kun/Aro
most of my friends say i act like Sora from KH.......lol

Percy Thrillington July 17th, 2009 9:50 AM

Rekhyt's Egyptian for the word lapwing, which is a bird that signified slavery to the Egyptians a couple thousand years ago, as you do. Thought it sounded cool.

Åzurε July 17th, 2009 10:12 AM

At first my U-name was Mooglizer. Then I thought that just sounded weird, and I wanted to change it, and everywhere else I use a Moogle name, they call me moog. Hence, current username. The caps are odd just for the halibut.

Shem July 17th, 2009 10:29 AM

Nothing, absolutely nothing! My user name sucks! Stupid me when I was 14 thinking it was cool...

Denzer July 17th, 2009 10:34 AM

I like Luigi but I thought plain Luigi was WAY too used to I put Super Luigi

Corvus of the Black Night July 17th, 2009 10:40 AM

My name is simply Charon the Ferryman, the mythological ferryman of the dead to help them cross river Styx for the price of an obolus.

I use the name on almost every forum I go to o.o

Amaruuk July 17th, 2009 10:48 AM

My name came about a couple years ago, when I was trying to concoct a decent name (that wasn't taken) to use on RuneScape ._.;;

I liked it so much I ended up using it everywhere from that point on, and luckily it's almost always available.

Snivi July 17th, 2009 10:51 AM

Sachie is a Japanese name & it means bliss (other forms of Sachie are Sachi or Sachiko which both mean child of joy)

XxDawnfanxX July 17th, 2009 10:53 AM

My obsession with Dawn is showing, perhaps a bit too much haha

Rokusasu July 17th, 2009 11:55 AM

Mine is a tribute to my favourite pairing ever. 8D I just added a few spaces/ periods to make it look even purdier. :D

.little monster July 17th, 2009 1:07 PM

It's my real-life nickname.

Wulf July 17th, 2009 1:09 PM

I dunno, just thought it sounded cool at the time. It's alright, but it kinda looks like a furry name now.

Greene1516 July 17th, 2009 1:12 PM

Mine is from my dogtags I've had since I was a kid and when I found the tags again a few months again I started using it as my username.

xxemeneminyxx July 17th, 2009 1:35 PM

Pretty much sound like my actual name.. people called me eminy so emeneminy originated from that somehow ...

Logan July 17th, 2009 1:38 PM

My user name means how awesome my mind is.

Oh, The Places You'll Go. July 17th, 2009 1:51 PM

mine just means that I clearly don't know how to make a username.


but seriously, it's obvious what it is. or we could be as blind as bats, hmm?

Fox♠ July 17th, 2009 1:55 PM

Mine is a shortened version of my old username, FoxHound!, which is the anti terrorist unit turned terrorist in Metal Gear Solid ;]

Captain Fabio July 17th, 2009 1:57 PM

I made up my username from scratch.

It doesn't really mean anything, just has some inspiration from the lost city.

Rogue planet July 17th, 2009 1:59 PM

Shortened version of Vendack, the name I gave to my Nazi alter ego. I often play around with the spelling, but I always pronounce it the same.

Seadiga July 17th, 2009 3:58 PM

Saediga was the name I gave to my Staraptor on Pokemon Diamond. It doesn't exactly mean anything. I accidently switched the 'e' and 'a' around though....whoops.

Mirari July 17th, 2009 4:02 PM

it's a nickname, half of my real name (Larissa) ^^ no big history behind it xD

Miss Soupy July 17th, 2009 4:40 PM

It's a song done by Shiny Toy Guns. It's one of my favorite songs... so... yeah? :D

Saltare. July 17th, 2009 4:44 PM

Hikari-Dawn

Duh.

But I might change it.

Citrinin July 17th, 2009 4:45 PM

Citrinin is a toxic antibiotic. It's the aesthetics of the word more than the object that lead me to choose it. :P

j-unit July 17th, 2009 4:48 PM

Me? I was originally going to do james10nm but I thought that was too original since everything was james10nm (youtube, facebook, email) so I was listening to "G-Unit" and i was thinking ahh James!...J! and so the name J-unit came out.

World King July 17th, 2009 6:17 PM

World King reminds me of some plans I have to take over this planet (looong time ago..) When I signed up for my first Website and I needed a nick/username, I said "Meh, King Of The World sounds too bleh! :P", so I tried World King and I said... "World King... that's me from now on!"

I'm also World King in all other sites I go to. And if by chance that name is taken, then search me as "Legendary World King".

Swift! July 17th, 2009 6:28 PM

Katherine is what my name would be if I was female. Derived from my initals, which are K and T. When said together they sound like Katie, which is short for Katherine.

Ayano Katagiri July 17th, 2009 7:37 PM

Mine doesn't have any particular meaning that I know of, it's just a Japanese name I came up with. Katagiri was from Katagiri Yuuhi (female lead of Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka) and Ayano I just added on.

Vanilla Kitsune July 17th, 2009 7:43 PM

Vanilla is one of my favorite flavors. Kitsune is the Japanese word for fox. I love foxes. I used my ultra cool powers and combined the two.

... or I'm a vanilla flavored fox. Both explanations fit. I really should change my name though.

Sweet Smoochum July 17th, 2009 7:47 PM

It's just named after Lily (one of Misty's three sisters in Cerulean) she was one of the gym leaders for that city (along with Daisy and Violet) while Misty traveled with Ash. Some people have the misconception that Lily is my name when really it is just an anime reference. My real name is Ashley.

Anti July 17th, 2009 8:20 PM

Mine is a shortened version of my original username, Anti-Pop Culture Warrior 13, which is self-explanatory. I eventually shortened it to Anti-Pop, but I grew to hate that, so I changed it back minus the hyphen and number 13. Now I'm just at Anti since that's what everyone calls me, and frankly, the period of my life where I obsessively canned pop culture is over, so it's outdated I suppose. I was going to do Anti the Great to honor my idol, Peter the Great, but that's rather self-indulgent so I decided to go against that. =p

The Bringer! July 17th, 2009 8:23 PM

My name wasn't really of my own choosing, actually xD
Back during school, I'd always try to sleep during lunch (I don't eat much, so I was always done before everyone else). I would pull my hood over my head so you couldn't see my face. Then, this weird friend of mine randomly said "The Bringer!" really loud. All my other friends 'n' me were all like "WTF?", and he just said that he had randomly thought of that. He started doing that every day, and it eventually stuck. I don't mind really, since it's not that bad sounding, it's just weird how it was completely random. =/

Chibi-chan July 17th, 2009 8:35 PM

It means a small super deformed friend? XD
My original username (for only like, three months) was my mary-sueish Pokemon Trainer I made called Kura Cottom. But she's gone~

Star★Seeker July 17th, 2009 8:48 PM

It's a song by Lady Gaga. It's becomed my all time favorite song. Hopefully, it'll stick and I won't change it.

.Fenris July 17th, 2009 9:03 PM

My name actually has two meanings, Gold was my 1st Pokemon game, Shelby American is my favorite car maker, as for the 2nd meaning, take the G and the S, G stands for Gold and S is for Silver, and that's my name's origin.

*Nayz* July 17th, 2009 10:26 PM

nickname of part of my real name. (Naya)

I used it one day on a picture I did on photoshop and kind of liked it.

txteclipse July 17th, 2009 11:50 PM

The TX-T Eclipse is my favorite ship from the most overlooked side-scrolling shooter ever, R-Type Final.


BeachBoy July 17th, 2009 11:52 PM

Mine's rather easy, I'm a boy that lives near the beach. X)

Her July 18th, 2009 12:00 AM

libra is the coolest starsign ever

Vigilante July 18th, 2009 12:18 AM

Ringleader of Hell, simple, nice, and easy. But it is French.

Yamikarasu July 18th, 2009 7:23 AM

Yamikarasu = Murkrow in Japanese. "Murkrow" was taken, so it just seemed a logical alternative.

Damiano July 18th, 2009 8:34 AM

Mine is just a variation of my real name, which is Damien

Metatron July 18th, 2009 11:28 AM

http://voiceofthevoiceless.org/

But aside from that, "Voice of the Voiceless" was also the nickname given to Mumia Abu-Jamal, a radio host, journalist, and former black panther who spoke out, exposing the issues faced by those in poor, or underrepresented communities. He was convicted in 1981 for the murder in self-defense, of a Philadelphia cop who had unrightfully attacked Mumia because of his views.

Emerald-a green stone said to symbolize earth, luck, and health; the birthstone for May
Sky-The realm Rayquaza rules in Pokemon Emerald

Blaziquaza July 18th, 2009 3:01 PM

Rayquaza-The Pokemon Rayquaza

Sweet Candace July 18th, 2009 3:15 PM

Sweet Candace:

Sweet- It's a prefix that stuck when I was "Sweet Dawn".
Candace- Character from Phineas and Ferb.

Masara July 18th, 2009 3:20 PM

My name actually has no hidden/complicated meaning. xD Nendoru is Claydol's romanized Japanese name. Well, it's really supposed to be Nendoll, but I like it with a "ru" better.

red fraction July 18th, 2009 4:11 PM

Red Fraction is the song in the intro of the anime I was watching at the time

Xairmo July 18th, 2009 7:34 PM

Xairmo is what my name would be if I was a member of the Organization XIII.
Just an anagram of my name, Mario, with an X thrown in there. I'm a fan of the KH and FF series.

Stronkadonk July 18th, 2009 8:00 PM

The Illuminati is a group of scientists who oppose and despise religion. Being religious myself, it holds no meaning on myself. It is also a group of Marvel characters, but Angels & Demons is a lot cooler than Marvel, even through awesome superpowers.

>Feelings< July 18th, 2009 8:58 PM

As much simple as my name might sound, it actually has everything to do with me, and it has a spectrum of deep meanings that is beyond the comprehension level of normal people to understand.
But my username has another purpose too - to remind everyone of this word wherever I go, so that there is a chance of getting them to think about it and change for good.
Just being able to truely undestand this would bring about a huge positive change in a specific person.

Xairmo July 18th, 2009 9:02 PM

I'm pretty sure they did an episode of the Boondocks based off of that.

⋚Raika⋚ July 18th, 2009 9:02 PM

My current one doesn't mean anything, but the username I use on other forums "Raika" means Lightning Flash. You will know what I mean if you watch the Bleach Anime. :D

.Ozymandias July 19th, 2009 3:33 AM

Ozymandias is a bit of a double-meaning. It's my favourite character from Watchmen, and he got it from a poem, plus it's also the Greek name for Alexander the Great.

The . is just because Ozymandias was taken >.>

Miz en Scène July 19th, 2009 5:49 AM

Mizan means scales in Arabic. Nix has one letter from my last name. Zamnie is an anagram of my last name with one letter being the letter from my first name.
So basically my name is an anagram puzzle that could lead to my real name.

Kazukii July 19th, 2009 5:51 AM

"The Name Zenus is a boy's name. The origin of the baby name Zenus is Greek with the meaning(s) depending on Gender/Origin being"

Conman July 19th, 2009 8:36 AM

My name has a simple meaning behind it, I have no problem with lying to others if needed and I enjoy tricking others.

con man: a swindler who exploits the confidence of his victim

Operator3 July 19th, 2009 9:59 AM

I work in a bar where we have this till system in which you press and number and then sign in before you take an order. I always go for "3".

"Operator 3 is signed in".

And that's how I got it.

Timbjerr July 19th, 2009 11:15 AM

It's derived from my old username, "tmbjr", which in turn was simply my initials with the suffix jr. at the end. During my absence from PC, some guy at GameFAQS told me to change my name because nobody knew how to pronounce it, so I added random vowels to it and kept it. :P

H-King July 19th, 2009 11:33 AM

Its my initials plus "ing".

Zakarii July 19th, 2009 11:36 AM

It's my name in Japanese. Zachary-Zakarii.
Oh, and for anyone who cares, I'm Mapl3Syrup. Got sick of my name.

The Scientist July 19th, 2009 11:44 AM

Usernames here seem to fall into one of three categories:

1) Alteration of IRL name
2) Some random Japanese word/anime character name
3) Reference to Greek/Roman mythology

ThornPython4 July 19th, 2009 12:54 PM

My username I combined from Thorn and Python... I chose Thorn because he is my favorite character in the Eragon book series and he is a dragon. Python is because I love snakes and I own 2 pythons at home. The 4 is for my fav. number :D.

Jack O'Neill July 19th, 2009 12:59 PM

Jack O'Neill is a fictional character in the Stargate film and television series. I just decided to take his name for my own.

SeaSquirt July 19th, 2009 1:11 PM

I chose SeaSquirt because it's an animal with a symbolic meaning for me. They're a primitive vertebrate that starts in a free-swimming larval stage with a simple spine and brain. When they mature, they attach themselves to a rock and don't need their brain anymore, so they digest it. It's a reminder as I get older to never attach myself to a rock and eat my own brain. Metaphorically or literally, I guess.

.death July 19th, 2009 1:30 PM

Obviously, my name just means "Death". The period was added because Death was already taken. The name came from my current obsession with the anime Death Note.

Ayselipera July 19th, 2009 2:30 PM

My username probably has the most boring meaning but anyways...

Autumn is my name so I threw it in there because I couldn't think of anything. The 27 is just there because Autumn was taken and so was Autumn7 and Autumn77 so I added the 2.

I plan to change it to something better, hopefully.

幕之内 一歩 July 19th, 2009 3:07 PM

Had a few people ask me about mine. It's the name of Makunouchi Ippo in kanji (not the same as katakana), Japans Featherweight Champion from the anime Hajime no Ippo.

Pekachoo July 19th, 2009 6:43 PM

My username is pikachu misspelled
bet you didnt know that :D

zevarius kerensky July 19th, 2009 6:57 PM

my username has 3 meanings:

1: i am intrested in aura, and im able 2 sence it... 2 a drgree
2: i am obsesed w/ lucario
3: i am from lucaria/ related 2 a lucario

Caelus July 19th, 2009 7:40 PM

Mine's a combination of two words, obviously.

Blazing - I thought it sounded cool with Gliscor

Gliscor - wanted to change to its English name instead

There's a funny story as to why I chose it.....

Cid July 22nd, 2009 10:00 PM

My current username is random.
I originally wanted Eni (which was the nickname that Ryan called me and took from my first username, EnirevTux), but it was already taken, so I added what I can think of at the moment, which was -shi (which unintentionally, means "death" in Japanese if I remember correctly).

Enishi is also the name of a character in Rurouni Kenshin (Samurai X), so yeah, it's not entirely random I guess.

Nick July 22nd, 2009 10:10 PM

Abercrombie is of course a name taken from the clothing branch Abercrombie & Fitch. I chose it due to my obsession with Abercrombie & Fitch. Originally, three of us were going to all change our usernames to match them all: one of us would be Abercrombie (me), one of us would be &, and one of us would be Fitch. But then I decided not to do it since I wanted to go back to my previous username, which has no meaning, of Patchisou Yutohru. Abercrombie itself was a cofounder of the casual luxary clothing line.

My next username is a combination of my two current favorite bands, Meese and Muse with an S added to the beginning of it for the hell of it, I guess.

Blue Nocturne July 23rd, 2009 12:50 AM

My name is a reference to my love of music.
The blue is a prefix i add to almost every single one of my usernames on other sites as a reference to my personality according to my siggy

Vie July 23rd, 2009 12:57 AM

My name has its origin in the brain. 'cerebral cortex'
