Sakabato Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 I stumbled across a post in the Hang Out and Post thread and felt like making a thread about our display name's meaning, here, you post the meaning of yours. Mine is supposed to be an opposition of Shoyru. (note Shoryuken and Hadouken) Quote
Tedhaun Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 How did I get my display name (or what it means)? For Neomysterion (my display name), the Neo comes from Neopets, and the Mysterion comes from some bloke from South Park (though I'm not a fan of the series). This would be him: Quote
rachiee Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 It's the last name of one of my favourite Homestuck characters, Terezi Pyrope. And it's also a variety of garnet. :P Quote
eightbitdimwit Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 I'm a connoisseur (arguable, since I dislike a lot of classics?) of retro and outdated game titles, I'm a pretty big clutz, and I like things that rhyme. It's also one of my handles that's never taken. Quote
jumpingbeans Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Well, I felt like a strange name, and here Easter Bunny is, at Christmas time. Quote
hipy_chicky Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 I was a young elementary school student. That pretty much sums up everything. lol Quote
Dcoolb Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Well, for now... You get it... But Villianous was random, ummm... Dcoolb: This story is really weird. So you know I am the youngest of three boys. We are all three years apart, so if I was 3 my brothers would be 6 and 9. Back a long time ago, my brothers and I had a PS2. Our favorite game was Time Splitters 2. My middle brother, made an account called Tking, and so I being the little brother admiring everything he did made an account called Dking. He got mad at me for copying and so I made something similar. It was Dboss. I kept playing till I beat the game, and decided to make a new account. I was sitting there when I thought of Dcoolb. The B was from the first letter of my last name. After getting on the internet and playing on some sites, the username Dcoolb just stuck. It always has. Quote
Ruto Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 It's the Zora princess from Zelda OoT. That's it. :P Quote
Syrin of Neopia Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Syrin because I like mythology and prefer to spell the mythical "siren" as "syrin" to set it apart from, say, police sirens or something. & it's always "Syrin of", followed by whatever seems appropriate like the current or upcoming holiday or just Neopia as my default Quote
Spritzie Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 My display name, Spritzie, is a nickname of mine. Spritzie is a character from the 80s cartoon, Rainbow Brite. She was one of the female Sprites. :) I was given the nickname when I joined a Rainbow Brite fan group online when I was 15. It's stuck and I've used it online ever since. Quote
BabylonianShadows93 Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 I made my display name when I was obsessed with Sonic the Hedgehog. :P Babylonian came from the Babylonian Gardens stage in Sonic Riders. Then I added my favorite Sonic character's name at the end, Shadow (i added the s for the lolz) and finally I added my birth year 93. It's a very lame name if you ask me but I've stuck to it for some time. Quote
hrtbrk Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Kanye West's album 808's & Heartbreak had recently come out at the time, and I was listening to Welcome to Heartbreak. No real meaning, just seemed to be catchy at the time lol I obviously shortened it to hrtbrk, tho lol Quote
-Ryan Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Gee I have no idea what mine's for. Maybe someone else knows. Where's JB for a witty explanation when you need him? Quote
Mouseykins Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 My original display name was mouse_angel in honor of my two four-legged family members. Angel passed away recently so I changed my display name to Mouseykins. My avatar and Profile picture are of Mouse. Quote
Khalon Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 I formed my display name out of imagination. It had sorta just popped into my head after a spent a lil while thinking xD it sounded really cool to me so I just stuck with it. I even let some people identify me as Khal in real life too xD Quote
Angeló Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Angelo it's just a name :mellow: but the ó is because I'm crazy for oranges Quote
behemothrules Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Behemoth is one of my favorite bands of all time, most of my display names online have something to do with them ^_^ Quote
Miki Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 It's a nickname that I've had for quite some time, a shortened form of my real name, Michaela. The spelling is an alternative spelling I obtained from an Italian family I babysat in Switzerland and from other friends I had in Italy. I babysat the family for four years, so I got very close with them. They were like my home away from home. Whenever the mother would e-mail me, she spelled my name this way instead of how people in America would spell it, which was either like: Mickey or Micky... so, yeah. Quote
Scarlet Fever Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Because Typhoid Mary is so overdone......lol :whistle: No, it actually came from a series of thoughts that were started by my love of Edgar Allen Poe; my favorite short story being Masque of the Red Death. I have a weird (perhaps morbid) fascination with horrid diseases...however, couldn't think of anything tuberculosis-related that had any kind of ring to it...so Scarlet Fever came to mind, as I actually really like the name (and color; my favorite color) Scarlet. Long story short; it came from my being kind of spooky and twisted. :* Quote
Kaana Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 It's kinda a joke on my name. My parents didn't like my "real" name for a baby (too grown up) so because I was named for my grandmothers, they smoosh'd the two together to come up with what I'm known as. I further smoosh'd when trying to come up for an original name on some other website to Kaana. Add "na"s as needed :3 Quote
Jacky Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 I'm a big fan of the band Opeth, and my name came from the album Black Water Park. I've been using this since 2001. Sidenote about my neo username: On the forum where I originally started using it (and where I now belong to the furniture, LOL) They lovingly shortened it to Wabla. That name was already taken on neo, and being uninspired, I just stuck the 666 behind it. :P Quote
Ruka Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 ...well, mine was a nickname given to me by my friends in real life. It all started when I started calling my friends Penguin, Hamster, and Doraemon respectively; and because of my obsession with rabbits, that's where the Bunny came from. Whenever I did oh-so-not-nice things to them or vice versa, we practically added 'Evil' into our nicknames. That's about it. :D Quote
Balthamel Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Whoever read Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan will know what my nickname is... :) Quote
khaos Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Um. Long story except not really. My friends like to jokingly call me a sadist and that I cause chaos. I always loved the word chaos. :P And for some reason i think that "ae", "k", and "x" in a word makes it sound mystical, so I just decided on using the name Khaos. :laughingsmiley: Quote
Naamah D. Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 Naamah or Nahemah is my favorite Succubi out of Agrat, Lilith, and Eisheth. So since people tend to call me Naamah(as a nickname) I chose her alternate name as my display name. Quote
