Is it normal to wonder how members chose their username?

I asked this question about two years ago and got some interesting answers from the people who used the site back then. I always planned to ask again, once most of the people who answered had left, and a bunch of newer people had arrived.

Seeing as most of you are a bunch of newer people, it seemed like a good time to ask. What's the story behind your username?

  • KeddersPrincess

    Kedder is the main antagonist in my book series "Alchemic". He is prince of the black lands and is commonly called "The Black Prince". He is a powerful, seductive sorcerer, well known for devouring the hearts of his parents. He is quite invincible, and was only defeated once when he was killed by another sorcerer who had stolen his power. However, he was later revived by the King Robert when they joined forces with him in order to stop the sorcerer that killed him. They succeeded in reviving him, and he later destroyed the sorcerer that stole his powers. Kedder is the grandson of one of the Great Spirits and the daughter of Hilexa and Casxter, also well known sorcerers. As he commonly states himself, he is the most feared creature in all of the land, and at only 23 years old, has made his place at being the most notorious sorcerer in all of Rosebithika.

    Now that you have some background on Kedder, let me tell you how my username fits into that :) ...Kedder has no princess, and knowing him, he is probably impervious to love. I like to make fanfictions out of my own stories, though (I know it doesn't make sense, but work with me). Because Kedder is the sexiest and my favorite character in my series, I decided that I would call myself his princess, and thus you have "KedderPrincess". Make sense? "Kedder's Princess". The end:)

    Ooh, how did I miss this when it was posted? :D

    Shade - because the world isn't black and white and neither am I.

    My last name breaks down into syllables with different meanings, it's Drow language. (though I changed the spellings a bit to get something that sounded better)

    Ilm - Soul, spirit, living, life
    Ae - Dance, dancer, life, (cant remember the 4th one D:)
    Ndu - Art, Artist, expert, treasure

  • I wrote down random words on paper, cut them up and put them into a bag. I made sure to mix all the choices up and then picked out the first two and stuck with that.

    I wiped boogers on my jeans and noticed they were green. The explicitness of it all was comforting.

  • My brother and i were making fun of the modern state of hip-hop. We decided that anyone could be a rapper today so we both came up with rap names.

    He is "Dat Dolla" and i am "Yung Skrilla".

    I decided to put them together, and BAM... My user name.

  • Wendell

    I tink I read mine in a Far Side cartoon. I thought Wendell sounded like the kind of name some adult loser who lived with his mother would have, because that's who I thought used this site. I was wrong, though.

    It's not as common as Kelly and can be easily remembered or so I think.

  • I love capybaras. Around the time I picked my username I had gone to the zoo, about a month or two before. I took pictures and someone showed me them because he knew I love them to death and walla! Shortened it to Capy.
