How Did You Come up with Your Username?

[York 387]

For me, I used to play with a guy named Tucker in CS:S. I think he had said his name came from Red vs. Blue and that I should pick a name from that series as well. At the time I was either going by Knives or Envy.

 

He gave me a list of names and York was one of them, and I've been York ever since.

 

What about you guys?

I picked this name in 2009 (which is why I used to use 009 at the end of my name). I bought xbox live in 2009 and a friend came over that day. I asked him for help with choosing a name and he then said to me: "You love Star Wars and you hate the idea of Jesus don´t you?" me: "Uhm yeah why?". Friend "Well just go for Jodas it has both in the name Joda(Yes we thought Yoda is spelled Joda) + Judas = Jodas" me " You are a blood genius" 

I have sticked with this name ever since.

 

People always think my real name is Jonas

[trav 6834]

I would get into really awkward interactions with strangers on a month long road trip I took with my friends when I was 18. They started calling them travesty's anytime one would occur.

 

"Welp, that was another travesty."

 

We would laugh about it and another one would eventually come up again.

 

It just kinda stuck and I decided one day to just make it my name.

[Cman 469]

My mom made up this name when I was like 8 for my first email account. 

[Moosin 92]

I had a shirt when I was in 4th grade that said "Moosin' Around"  on it. 

 

It got me all the babes. 

[Avenger 1048]

Avenger was the name of my old Prot Pally (WoW), and that name came from the spell Avenger's Shield.

 

No, it isn't from the superhero film :/

[yeet 1050]

Had my name as Demon when I played xbox a long time ago, I always thought they looked badass and Demon's were/still are cool in mythology so it stuck. I love the word Demon, it just fits

[centran 4457]

Made it up. 

 

Played some MUDs back in the day. One wanted your character to have a first and lastname. I decided that I needed a unique online alias/persona name which I could always use. So I came up with Centran Tunturi which I have used for over two decades... take that you little bastards who change their name 5 times a day. I bet your mommy doesn't even change your diaper that often.

[lemonade 1582]

Lindsay is just my name so that's creativity.

As for the autistic leet name from before, I would purposely use those kinds of names to piss off friends when they wanted to add me. I asked one of those friends for a steam username when I was making it, suggested rise to power, made it leet, and pissed him off again. 

[KiD Fearless 685]
