Meaning of your Name
 
Actually a really simple question: Does your name mean something special?
You can explain the meaning of your User Name, or Real name if you like.
I'll just go ahead and start:

Zorogami: Combination of Zoroark and Shinigami, because i really like Zoroark and his ability, and i loved the Anime Death Note, especially the Shinigami Ryuk :3

Alejandro (Real Name): originates from the Greek or Croatian, means "The Protector", i actually like it a lot ^^

Nathan March 13th, 2013 3:30 PM

Ok JNathan : combination of Joseph and Nathan from my real name.
Joseph Nathan : my parents are fervent catholics and they named me after some catholic figures.

Ephemeral Euphoria March 13th, 2013 3:34 PM

Xulek - Just an anagram of my irl name with an x added in. Basically I needed a name for my gamertag back when I first got my 360 and since I felt like my real name would be too boring I decided to spice it up a bit. Hard to believe that this name is almost 5 years old now lol.

Captain Gizmo March 13th, 2013 3:41 PM

LilJz: I had this since high school and the Lil was because I was really short back then. J for Jerry, my real name. Z for Diaz, my family name. I just combined Lil and those two letters to form LilJz.

Jerry: My dad really liked Jerry Lewis, the comedian. So he named me after him.

Aura Vitae March 13th, 2013 4:07 PM

roen52- Roen if I'm not mistaken comes from rune and I added two numbers at the end becuase I didn't realize it wasn't necessary at the time.

Steven- Steven originates from Greek and means Crown and I like it.

Sableye~ March 13th, 2013 4:15 PM

My username is just because I like Slenderman. Also is because this username is the same as the one I had on another forum, which I was banned from. I figured that if one of my friends from there stumbled upon PC, they might recognize me. No luck so far.

My real name's meaning fits me enough that it's beyond weird. >_>

Cosmotone8 March 13th, 2013 4:28 PM

I'll start with my username, then do my name irl.
Cosmotone8
Cosmo, implying something is from space and Tone, something produced from music Also the 8 is added on the end because it symbolizes infinity when turned on its side, and also because it's my favorite number.

Weston, name irl
The meaning of my name is so pathetic its hilarious. I literally burst out laughing when I saw it. Basically, Weston originates in Old England and when translated means "west town." So it went from "west town" to "Weston." Pathetic, eh?

Broken_Arrow March 13th, 2013 5:03 PM

My Username means Broken Arrow do i need to say more??

Real name means..Black beauty,dark wine,night without moon or darkness

Legobricks March 13th, 2013 6:11 PM

I've fairly answered of the origin, but as for the meaning of Cassino, why the Volsci named their settlement Casinum, I have no idea. To myself, the name means two nice compositions by Michael Giacchino [1] [2], though in part it also laments the apparent recklessness of the United States military.

As for given names, I don't think the meaning of such a thing would necessarily be relevant to oneself as an individual; neither would be the etymological basis of the name. This is to say, as it is evident that parents generally name their children after such things as ancestors or popular contemporaries, the literal meaning of a name has become meaningless.

Hikamaru March 13th, 2013 6:38 PM

My username may look simple, but the origin is easily known once you get it.

Hikari = I was once a fan of Dawn/Hikari back during 4th Generation of Pokemon. Still a cute character nontheless and I loved her in the anime.
10 = I was born in October, which is the 10th month.

As for my real name, Nichole, it's an odd spelling of a common name but it contains an anagram of Chloe, the name I was originally going to be called. Interesting isn't it?

Starry Windy March 13th, 2013 7:04 PM

My name as Wind Heart was originated from my game play in Pokemon Black 2.
At that time, I want to use the name of 'Wind' as the new protagonist because I think 'Wind' might be nice name, and I like wind. And in Join Avenue, I thought of the last name 'Heart' because I want to change my heart into something better.

Crux March 13th, 2013 7:27 PM

Rococo.
Rococo is a form of architecture which originated in Paris, Fance in the eighteenth century, also known as Late Baroque and, less commonly, Roccoco.
An example can be seen in the spoiler.

The reason I choose to use Rococo as my username is for both how beautifully it rolls off the tongue, and as an admittance towards my love of architecture.

Treecko March 14th, 2013 1:31 AM

AWSquared:AWsquared is a username I use on many sites, but it orginated back to my user on the photoblogging site Dailybooth. Originally the username was AaronWhatAaronWho. I thought it sound like a usename a famous youtuber would have. I later realized how long and stupid (for lack of a better word) it sounded. So I shortened it to AWsquared. AW are the initials of my real name and squared comes the square number in algebra or the result of multiplying a number, or other expression, by itself.

Aaron: (my real name) Aaron is a Hebrew name and in the Old Testament of the Bible is the name of the older brother of Moses. It mean's "high mountain", "mountain of strength" or "enlightened". My family is Catholic so my parents wanted to name me and my brothers after people in the Bible.

kuzronk March 14th, 2013 2:24 AM

Tyler : It means door keeper of an inn.

Kuzronk : It's a mix of Kuzco and Kronk from the emperor's new groove (and other things). Made it while signing up to Club Penguin in late 2008.

curiousnathan March 14th, 2013 2:54 AM

Curious - I needed something that represented me, and curious is exactly that! 8D

Nathan - "The gift of God."

Avishka March 14th, 2013 3:32 AM

my real name and username are same
my name means gift from god i think xD

Arma March 14th, 2013 3:55 AM

Elarmasecreta is El Arma Secreta without the spaces. Arma is a nickname I've had since I was little, and it also means weapon in Spanish. El arma secreta means the secret weapon.

My real name is Marciano, originates from Latin, it means "from the God Mars". My name is implying I'm Martian XD. My parents said they named me after Marciano Vink, a Dutch football player.

KriegStein March 14th, 2013 3:56 AM

Krieg = War in german. I like the sound of it and im interested in war history.
Stein = Rock in german. Sounds nice and I like rock music so its a pun.

Kikaito plush March 14th, 2013 8:01 AM

Curtis Talli: the main character of my novel I am trying to write..and failing to. As for my Real name Kerri which my mum said I was named after my Aunt who died before I was born.

Sweets Witch March 14th, 2013 11:45 AM

I was named after my dad so there's no fun there.

"Sweets Witch" is a reference to Charlotte from Puella Magi Madoka Magica. I love Charlotte.

Kura March 14th, 2013 12:06 PM

Adriana: Dark/ Rich
Kura: Doesn't mean anything, but based off the YGO character Bakura.

Palamon March 14th, 2013 12:38 PM

Yuki's Sword? Uh... actually, it doesn't have any particular meaning. I just like seeing anime girls being strong with swords and at the time I loved Vampire Knight so I decided to base it off of Vampire Knight. I thought "What if you Yuki Cross had a sword?" And then Yuki's Sword was born.

My main username, Palamon, I am still guessing the meaning of. I don't even know myself yet.

Caelus March 14th, 2013 1:49 PM

Caelus is the name of the Roman sky god. He was the grandfather of Jupiter (Zeus' roman equivalent) if I recall correctly.

And my real name, Kevin, apparently means handsome.

EGKangaroo March 14th, 2013 1:55 PM

Well, my username is EGKangaroo. The EG stands for eastern grey, making my full username Eastern Grey Kangaroo, which is my favourite animal.

I was going to post my real name, but then Caelus just had to have the same name as me and post at the same time as me, so yeah. My parents really did give me such a modest name. Eugh, I hate it. It sounds so boring and arrogant.

Sydian March 14th, 2013 5:05 PM

Sydian is just something I made up on the fly. It has no meaning. Then again, I could check.

Sometimes people will call you Sydian to suggest that you are short.

Oh.

Aslan March 14th, 2013 8:56 PM

Sophie- Apparently I was named after a main character in one of my Mum's favourite books that she read a few weeks before I was born, but Sophie comes from a Greek word which means wisdom, which is pretty cool. :3

Narnia- To be honest, it just sort of popped into my head. After abandoning my old username, I tried to think of some ideas and Narnia was the first thing that came to mind, so yeah! :3

Brendino March 14th, 2013 10:40 PM

My real name, Brendan, can mean either prince, brave or (little) raven, depending on the origin that you're looking at. And my username is just a nickname I had growing up, based on my real name. No one really calls me it any more, but it just kind of stuck with me.

Synerjee March 15th, 2013 2:07 AM

Synerjee is formed by combining parts of my real name, which I will not reveal here. It is also found that those parts of my name, when combined, produce a word that sounds similar to a real word that exists in the English language, which is 'synergy'. According to the Free Online Dictionary, synergy means "The interaction of two or more agents or forces so that their combined effect is greater than the sum of their individual effects." I like it. It relates to me very well, I think. :D

As for my real name (hover over my username to find out if you want), it apparently means "Worthy to be Loved", according to a name key holder I found. Beautiful meaning, my name. <3

Mark Kamill March 15th, 2013 6:24 AM

Elendil is a High King of Middle Earth, and I love LoTR. Simple really.

Cherrim March 15th, 2013 11:39 AM

Erica: ever-powerful, ever-ruler. Also another word for heather, a type of flower.

Lightning: Named this after an old RP character I had when I was like... 11. I'd just gotten into Yahoo! Chat RPs (all the Pokemon chatrooms were pretty much RP rooms haha) and lightning_the_baby_pichu was my favourite account to roleplay as. Kind of embarrassing to look back on but oh well. My account on an old forum was compromised once and I needed a new username so I went with this. Regretted it eventually when I realized it's a really common username so it was hard to secure in most places without adding parts to it. (Also now everyone assumes I got it from Lightning from FF13 but I don't even like her much. D:)

Shining Raichu March 16th, 2013 2:39 AM

My username is simple - I named myself after the Shining Raichu Pokemon card, which was the most exciting Pokemon-related experience I could think of at the time I was making my name...

As for my real name, Andrew... I think my mother named me after a character from one of her soaps lmfao

Dreg March 16th, 2013 2:44 AM

Airbourne Bubblun came from the fact I liked the WWE wrestler Evan Bourne, who was nicknamed "Air Bourne", and Bubblun has been my favorite VG character since I was 3. So I merged them together and that is how Airbourne Bubblun was formed.
