as for mine, it was back in 2008, back then i licked the nickname max, for no random reason so when i started playing an online game and it asked for username i decided to use max, but then felt that its missing something, so i decided to add another X to become maxx. but since 4 letters is usually to short for a username i wanted to add some numbers, so i decided it shall be 2012. hence came up with 2012.
Offtopic: you couldnt imagine my surprise a couple years later when all the internet raged about 2012 and the world ending.. i was like : I KNEW IT! THERE IS JUST SOMETHING SPECIAL ABOUT 2012. I KNEW IT FROM A COUPLE YEARS BACK!! I CAN SEE INTO THE FUTURE!!

Shou Toshiro has been my alias since... uh, 2011? No real reason behind the name. I just like it.

Just kind of thought of it on the spot. I didn't like my other username that I had been using for years, on other sites, so last year I figured it was time for a change.
I really wanted the word "Lullaby" in it and I didn't want any numbers, just words. I put in "Petal" because I wanted a part of the title of one of the stories I'm writing in it. "Orchard" just kind came in when I thought of petal and I liked the sound of it.
I had wanted a username with the word "Figment" in it but.... at that moment I couldn't think of what else to use with it.
I feel like this username makes me sound more girly then I am but I still like this username anyway.
Remembrance, a forsaken thing that revokes ignorance and leaves people in doubt, is my only redemption and solace deep within the cascade of white.

I have answer this before,

but I want to add some more explanation.
Because "G" is the first letter of my real name, and I tried to find a "cool" word starting with "G", and I can only think of Good and Great at that time.
Since I think Great is better than Good, so yeah, thats the start of it.

My brother's username in online rpgs was makeawish something something. I think I borrowed his account to play and the username stuck. Haha. Also, Make a wish is a taiwanese song by Vic Zhou, who acted in Meteor Garden, a taiwanese drama series based on the manga Hana Yori Dango. Haha that show was huge in my country back then. 😃

if ignorance is bliss, I guess that would explain why I'm so miserable!
My avatar is a character called Sly Blue (as seen in my forum title under the avatar) from the BL game DRAMAtical Murder
I really liked the name (and in love with the character himself), so I wanted to make the "female version" of it
So I looked up synonyms for "Sly", and Devious was the best one
As the "Blue", I just inserted my favourite colour, which was Pink, but it sounds kind of childish and weird (Devious Pink? WTF LOL)
So I chose Rose instead. I mean, it's my favourite flower and it's also a colour. Two birds with one stone! Score!

A combination of my Chinese name and 'please'.
Using a unified username for all accounts so it's the same whether I'm using my twitter, instagram, or essentially any other account. It's quite helpful when remembering account login details. 😛

last year or two years ago i went to a circus and there was a guy on the trapeze that was so amazing. it was literally love at first sight for me. sadly it was simply a circus but i still remember trapeze dude. i never knew him name or anything, so i just referred to him as "circus lad" 🤣

Mine's a combination of the two brothers in naruto , asura and indra. why i came up with these is because basically the meaning of my name is indra, and my fav attack has been asura ( zoro's strongest attack in onepiece). 😀

I warped the meaning of my first name and translated my middle name to create "Listening" (from my first name) and "Daisy" (from my middle name).

I use this name since 2007 i guess....
Good friend of mine named me honk (complete jerk, person without knowledge) everytime when i beat him at football either on the console, pc or on the field. As i used it primarily for gaming, the playa was added 😀

i use it everywhere. Replaced "Dreamer" years ago when it was already taken. idk i just lay around and dream all the time haha, so it seemed fitting.
well sometimes even Sogno is taken, so I may use the French (Rêve) or Turkish (Hayal Kurmak -- lol this one's never taken) counterparts. But default is Sogno (Italian).

I was an Excel Saga fan when I choose the nickname that stuck for my online personna. (Excel uses the -sama honnorific when talking to her boss, Il Palazzo)

I believe in letting people do as they wish, as do I myself. Sometimes, of course, what I wish to do is kill them and they do not wish to die. This gives life interest.
