It comes from a book by RA Salvatore. I started using it early in middle school and just kept using it, it isn't taken often (I think gmail was the only exception.)

My favorite japanese word as of now is Nanashi which translates to "Nameless" and Ryuu means dragon so I thought that Nameless Dragon sounded pretty cool.

Mine comes from the time when I was really interested in playing GO and started to learn it . As you can probably guess I was rewatching Kodocha and so Sana and Akito became one*g*

Mine is from Robert Asprin's series "MYTH Inc". Loved the books, loved the character, (loved the sound of the name ^_^), used the name ever since... I think I already use it for about 10 years...

Oh boy, this is gonna be longgg. XD I'll be surprised if anyone actually reads this.
My brother was obsessing over Zelda, Ocarina of Time and made up the username "DarkLink89" when he joined GameFAQs.
When I joined a few months later, I couldn't think of anything. He first suggested "sheikneedles" which I thought sounded pretty cool. But being an underage user at the time, I got banned like, 2 weeks later. >_>;
I joined about a year later, and wanted not to tell my brother. So I wanted to make fun of his name, and came up with "Lightlink". But again, I wanted the number. My other brother was for some reason obsessed with the number 2 at the time [FWIW, he's older than me] so two 2's = 22. Therefore Lightlink22 was born.
It only took my brother a few weeks to realize that Lightlink22 was me, when I gained infamy on Board 8. Of course, by then, a lot of people were shortening my name. LL22, LL, and Lightlink were the most common.
After making the Ocarina of Time board my new home, I saw some of the users referring to another user by a nickname. I was all "OH, NEAT" and wanted to come up with one for myself.
After a bit of thinking, I came to DoubleLn2. The n = and. I got that from a person I had met on RuneScape named "Aerisncloud". ^^
DoubleLn2 = DoubleLand2 = LL22 = Lightlink22
So ingenious. ;D
Well, after getting banned from GameFAQs a while later, I was searching for a new site to come up. I had remembered making a Gaia Online account under the username "DoubleLn2" a few months ago, and after going on the site out of pure boredom, I got addicted. I spent - no, WASTED the next 3 years of my life on Gaia. -_-;
There was a user on Gaia, kitten, who had gotten around to calling me DubDub. ^_^ She probably got that from Double Bubble, which she turned into Dubble Bubble, which turned into Dubx2. XD So from that, majority of people started calling me Dub, Dubby, etc etc.
Then I rejoined GameFAQs to give greetings to my old pals, and was searching for a username. "Dubby" was too plain, and the Japanese honorifics killed me a bit inside. So I decided on "kinz", which I had gotten from Veronica Lodge [Archie Comics] where she called Archie "Archiekins" and Mr. Lodge "Daddykins". I changed the s to a z cause I liked it better.
Unfortunately, I used the wrong e-mail for "Dubbykinz". -_- So I had to go with "Dubbykins". A sad day indeed.
However, everywhere else online, I started going by Dubbykinz, and here, I decided to make life easier for all of you and just use "Dubby". Aren't I so nice? n.n
Well, that's the story behind my username. XD
My e-mails are mostly all lightlink22@whatever.we because most of them are old. Like my g-mail e-mail I made during my LL22 reign on GameFAQs.
