Before joining this forum, I was on holiday in Corfu, Greece. Not what I call a vacation of luxury, but it was decent somewhat. Except all the quarrels we had with the hotel staff. They were hilarious. XD Anyway when I got home on the last week of June '05, I just wanted a change.

I went through quite a lot in my history of internet. And I more or less wanted to start over anew. But I had trouble trying to think of an actual username. And everytime I did...I hear the grumblings of a few disgruntled Greeks I met rattling on in my head.

"Signomi Signomi Signomi!" For god sakes, shut the heck up mind. I'll use the damn word. x_X

Also coming to the fact that I'm also Greek, I figured the word could be of some use to me. Presently, this username feels more like my actual name rather than just a word in Greek vocabulary. XD

The love for Umbreon and my favorite numbers inspired my user name. I do say I could've thought up something better, though. Oh well. ^_^;

I think I was obsessed over the game Okami when I thought of my username. I originally planned to change my username to Amaterasu, which is the name of the main character of the game. But I decided to change it to Shiranui, who is somewhat of a main character (not really), after playing though another hour or so through the game. And I think Shiranui sounds better than Amaterasu =D

I got tired of my Old Username, and I came back to PC after a year so I needed a change.

So Wish came when I was thinking of a Plain Simple name. Not a Username with like 10 numbers following it.

Wish came when I thought of Jirachi. So I found out the name was available! I cheered and got my named changed.

Well, for Christmas a few years ago, I got a "How to Speak Japanese" cd kit. My favorite color used to be pink, but all of a sudden I started to like the color green, and found out that "midori" is green. So that's the first part.

And as for the "Chi," that was when one of my friends introduced me to the manga Chobits, which I grew to love, because Chi is sooo adorable. ^_^

Torchic :3

I wanted a username that had something to do with torchic, but "Torchic" seemed to dull. So I looked up japanese names of Poke'mon, and obviously, "Achamo" is Torchic in japanese. Achamo sounds more better, dosen't it?

My username comes from my anthropomorphic character named Yoshiaki Gunn. I know, "Gunn" is actually his surname and "Yoshiaki" his first. I dunno what I had them switched. Maybe I'll post a picture of him in the Art Gallery sometime.

I mentioned this somewhere else in PC, but whaaaatever.

Yoshi- my favorite video game character and my childhood (ah, I miss those days) idol. Yup, me in the glory days... Yoshi forever! And to add to that, dinosaurs are my favorite creatures!

star- the star is my claimed symbol... I use it in most of my written work!

64- the Nintendo 64 made me the person who I am today... a nostalgic, euphoric, friend making Nintendo freak. I will never forget what it has done to me.

... throw the three together and you get a cool sounding name that you should never forget!

Well.. I was having an IM conversation with AngieKit, we were trying to think up a new username for me.
And her display picture included "Memory" and I was like "omg that sounds purdy! :DDD"

Nayana is the name of one of my main characters in my writing. I admit, she's one of my favorites. It's also a pretty unique username; I haven't seen anyone on the forums I go around use it, unlike the name Sammi. *grumbles* I'm still a little bitter about that, Sammi used to be unique as well.

As for where I got the name Nayana, I don't know anymore. I used it when I was really little, maybe as young as 10 or 11. Perhaps I made it up by slamming letters together like I sometimes do, or maybe I heard it and used it because I thought it was pretty. Who knows anymore. ^_^;

I guess nobody cares, but there are quite a few reasons for my username... Let's see...

1-It comes from Zelda, which I like (but since using Zelda could be weird, let's just make it shorter, like, "zel")
2-It comes from the anime Slayers (from the character Zelgadis, Lina usually called him "zel")
3-It comes from a character of my never finished RPG Maker game (called Zelard Strife, or for short "zel")

Yay for coincidences! XD
