How did you come up with your username? It doesn't have to be just the one on this site, either; you can explain others if you want, too. ^^ My nickname here, Shadow, started when I was in fifth grade. My teacher called several people by nicknames, and I suggested that my nickname be Shadow, which at the time I had just randomly come up with. He liked it, since I was quiet and, at the time, I followed teachers around as they moved around the classroom, waiting for my question to be answered. xD Another online name of mine, Sandstone-Shadow, was an attempt to make Shadow more original, since it's pretty common. A different attempt was September-Shadow, but I liked Sandstone-Shadow more. There's also the name Qyuarkrien, which I'm pretty proud of. ^^ I randomly typed a bunch of letters, then went back and tried to sound it out. That gave me a general idea of a pronounciation, and from there I basically respelled the approximate pronounciation. =D |

Kay, so my cousin and I are in the FR/LG chat, and she suggests to me that I should take up gymnastics. I type, "But I'm not fexible." Of course, she busted out laughing, and I suddenly realized what I wrote, and corrected myself. A few weeks/days later, she emailed me and said "Hey, Fexible. ^_~ lol". The nickname was funny, so I kept it. Now there are many nicknames I go by that are derived from Fexible. Fex, Fexxy, Fexi, and so on. XD I also used to go by XANA55, but that's another story. ^_~ Quite a coincidence, my mom calls me her Shadow, since wherever she goes, I go. XD |

My name's cliche. I'd like to change it. RyouBakura, I guess, doesn't much require an explanation. My other (and my favourite) name is Envoy Of The End. It's from my prized Yu-Gi-Oh card, Chaos Emperor Dragon: Envoy Of The End. ;-) |

Zephyr was special and happy-sounding. ^^ And furthermore, I was the only person I knew who could spell it right. So I devised it for the internet, and for my Pokesona. Then I tacked on Plusle to the end so it would be more original, on some forums. I'm also known as Involuntary Twitch, which was a random stroke of genius on my part when, at Mew's Hangout Refuge, I discovered to my delight that I could change my name freely. After successive parody names (like GoldenSunEspeon, so named because a friend of mine was SilverMoonUmbreon), I randomly typed in Involuntary Twitch. And it was cool, so it stayed, and shortly afterwards became my alias on PMF and several other websites. I was Praseodymium for a short period of time, too. ^^ That was fun. I should change my name to that somewhere. |

Well, my original name was Pointy_bunnyc, which I thought up when I was like...10. Anyways, I had to think up a username to join a forum, and since my 10 year old mind had absolutely no creativity whatsoever, it just coughed up the name "pointy_bunnyc" xD I don't know how. I've used that name everywhere until later, when I decided that my name was a bit too long. So I shortened it to Pointy, and that's what I'm usually known as. I also has another name I used on the internet, which is Draca Orbire. If you've visited my deviantArt page before, you would most likely recognize that name. It was supposed to be a name for my Pokesona. Her name is in Romanian. Her first name is supposed to be "Drac a", 'drac' meaning 'demon' or 'devil' or something, and 'a' meaning 'of'. And orbire means 'blindness'. Her name is based off her childhood, in which whoever saw Draca would think of her as a monster, or a demon. Also she used to have pink retinas, which explains the blindness part. she isn't really blind, it was just a random attribute i thought up xD; |

Yeah there's a gazillion of those! xD Same with Shadow and Zephyr...but I've seen WAAAAY more Uchiha Sasukes than anything else... Well, let's see, been a while since I backtracked some old screenames. First was LONG ago. I couldn't think of anything, so I joined as X Master randomly (c'mon, I was little). That has got to be the lamest username evah. I think I later had it changed... My friend and I were goofing around one day long ago, so we created two characters, two agents, to be exact (our siblings' characters are negligible). I was Agent X and he was Agent 1-E. The names were random, both with agent in them. I had an old fanfic about agents, though it was awfully-written and I lost motivation 'cause the ending was so good and the rest of the story was awful =P. The agents were a policing organization who wielded the Phantom Gun (it rains a foe's life force and then converts it to projectles). They wore helmets and jetpacks and capes and...I'm getting off-topic. You can still find our names at IG... My friend had a Duel Masters *gags* board once (which went through six stages in its life), somewhat large. I initially, with lack of a good name, joined as Duel Master *rolls eyes*, which meant I was DM for a while. That got old. So I later got it changed to Angel Commander, a play with something from the game the site was mainly about. That got old. So I changed to Angel Ruler for something different. That got old. I think I was next Duel Master, for nostalgia. That got old. Maybe next I was Agent X. My friends did not like that at all...they still called me DM or AR. So in the site's last stage (27 months ago roughly), I became Agent Angel Ruler Twenty-four. Eww. AARTF. Not my thing. Well anyways, that nam was a melting together of many old usernames. Between the third form of the said site^ and me joining SPPf, I hung out at a YGO! GX board. I was never really into the whole dueling thing, and I typically thought the people there were losers, but oh well, I got to be an arrogant and tyrannical day-admin by December. Anyways, I was for two hours Ra Twenty-four (Ra plus a random #--maybe derived from someplace I've since forgotten) and when given my entrance exam (they put us into dorms -_-...I was in Ra Yellow and eventually was the 'Head Teacher' of it), I had Bakura =P change my name to Agent Myst. That name was a change to Agent X. I wanted something that sounded cool yet not lame and old, so when looking around I saw a case to my old Myst game and it hit me. I was to be Agent Myst for a long time (and still am at SPPf <<). This name was actually first born at my personal forums, but that's insignificant... When the above-mentioned site was cracked a bit before I joined SPPf, the webmistress handed the site to me. I declined, and so it was given to someone else, though I was invited, of course. I came there under the pseudonym 'Bucket Mouth'. I told the one called Rebellion from my game board in person shorly after and he was then dying laughing. The name initially came from a line in LoZ: LA (best game evah). In Mabe Village when you go into Ulrira's house and use his telephone, the Bucket Mouse is called. That easter egg (I s'pose) amused me ever since I saw that eight years ago, so Rebellion at some point nicknamed me Bucket Mouth. He still occasionally calls me that... ...but Bucket Mouth never stuck. And Agent Myst got old. SPPf's name change topic opened a little less than a year ago, and with that came an opportunity. I was getting suggestions from others as to how I should go about finding a new name, but that didn't help. I paced in circles and all of that junk trying to find something that fit as much as 'AM', which is little different than 'Alec', really. I eventually came to it. IRL (and at my game board =P) I'm known most well for my handwriting. It's, well, I think it's fine but nobody else would agree with me =P. And because I'm so two-faced (or maybe eight-faced) and mysterious, Illegible fit me well. So I adopted that sorta unofficially after then. Apparently, Illegible is still 'my name' now; however, I intend on changing it at the new year. One more month and I get yet another identity... EDIT: That was fun xP... EDIT2: Ack, I forgot another big one ><. At Acanthite, I have another false identity, so to speak. But I'm not gonna tell you who I am =P...that name came from my game forums, though... |

Icebreath was for a Warriors forum *coughblazingsilverpeltcough* and I got it through a Warriors random name generator... well, it wasn't random, I later found out it had a pattern, but whatever. There was Bluesayer, Dawn-something, Thornclaw, and Icebreath, because I reset the thing a couple of times, but Icebreath, to me, sounded better... so yeah. I also used healing.rain for some stuff [not a lot, mind you] because I made this avvie with a Dratini looking at a baby plant in the rain, so that's where I got that... so yeah. |

My name is pretty simple. Slash. But, the story doesn't end there. My first time ever on a forum, Eevee's HQ, I had to think of some user name. I chose infernape, because it was my favorite Pokémon at the time. Once Eevee-chan let me become a beta-tester for her v3 project, I started to consider changing my name. I was losing interest in Pokémon and forming an addiction to music. I told her about it, and she changed my name to Slash, which I had requested. That name has stuck to me ever since. And the explanation of where I got that name is that my favorite band at the time was Guns N' Roses, and I thought that the guitarist looked cool. So, I chose that name. When I told Vee about the name I wanted, I actually had 3 different names that I wanted: Slash, Clive Winston (from Guitar Hero), and Les Paul. I thought about it, and chose the simplest, Slash. |

Well, a LONG time ago, my name was like... <embarrass>Latios184(and Gardevoir184) or something (yes, point and laugh)</embarrass> before I decided that name was really, really unoriginal and started a search for a new one. After hunting down through various namegens, I found I liked this name. However, I'm gradually switching over to a new name, Cevn. The name came from the author of some OMG fanfiction, and I think it sounds really cool. (I pronounce it like Seven.) Not to mention for some reason it's never taken. That's the story of my name. |
 We rode on the winds of the rising storm, We ran to the sounds of the thunder. We danced among the lightning bolts, And tore the world asunder. "Knowledge is a weapon. I intend to be formidably armed." <taurnil> Something freakin hilarious happened in my chemistry class today <taurnil> i was asking my teacher about the origins of the element "europium" <taurnil> i said "So, where does europium come from?" <taurnil> my teacher gives me the most confused look ever, and then slowly says "i don't have any opium" <Snausages> So, an E-flat, a G-flat, and a B-flat walk into a bar. <Snausages> And the bartender says, <Snausages> "I'm sorry, we don't serve minors." <Myke> That struck a chord. <Snausages> Careful with those puns, you'll get in treble. <Myke> But they're key to my humour. <Myke> And very noteworthy. | |

but if you add an ice to it and then change it around then it's awezum!!! XD Whoppin' Weavile- what I first join as on serebii- I thought it was kool to have an adjective that started with the same letter as a pokemon. > FuzzyWuzzyFurret- i kept this one for a little long, made a forum based on it, though it was the same concept and I don't like it now. XD > IceMasterX- I like Weavile and it was an ice type so i said ice master and I thought the x sounded kool at the end and it would help so that the username wouldn't be taken so much > HailZtorm- I usually use this on things I'm joining at the time. I was in a z-ish mood when I made it up and it's still based on ice so... yah. |

Angel Kurikura, master of the Wind. Angel is a blonde, hyper catgirl I started out drawing first, then roleplaying second. Her sidekick is Bobo the monkey, and her power is Wind. I've sort-of adopted her as my official mascot.

It all started when I started watching Yugioh GX. I got addicted to the work 'Kaiser' and made a character based off of it after I watched Naruto. Then I went by the name KaiserRyou. I dropped the 'Ryou' and now I'm sticking with Kaiser. On some sites I go by Usurper Kaiser, the third installment to the names. |

I... I haven't posted in this? Gasp! Well, I was thinking of a name when I was joining some forums, and I thought of Pokemon that I liked. First I thought of Meowth. Then Cyndaquil, but I thought that it would be taken, so I stuck some numbers on the end. Some other names I go by on other places: Snowycat- I have a cat name Snowy. He is awesome. End of discussion. Gomphrena/Globe Amaranth/Amaranth- Globe Amaranth is my favorite plant. Gomphrena is another name for it. |
