Other Why did you pick your name?

[watcherofthewoods]

The book 'The Watcher in the Woods' was a fave of mine as a kid-still is to this day, it's why I started writing-so I messed around, made it of the woods, and voila!

 

[lupercal]

WH40k is one of my favorite things, and Horus Lupercal is one of my favorite Primarchs!(before he did that heresy thing anyways) Also I always thought it was funny for a guy to have a name which essentially means 'mother of all wolves', and so the name stuck.

 

[SAINT TATA]

Sigh, ok so as a child I was (still am) very Obsessed with movies like Caroline, Nightmare before Christmas, corpses bride etc.
So when I found this movie on YouTube called Scary Godmother I was very into it. One if the characters a wolf mistook the female lead to be a singer OPHELIA SAINT TATATA. That’s it.

 

[AdamFrown]

Im constantly frowning so that's it. And Frown sounds kinda like my lastname

 

[PinkChiffon]

It's the fabric I reach for most when sewing.

 

[BasilOwO]

It was my first username

 

[Murdergurl]

I have a proclivity towards obscenely detailed violence in my writing. Hence the "murder". I like to include actions of purposeful death in a lot of my stories. And the "gurl"... well, because I'm a female. I've actually had this handle for many, many years. Probably something like a decade.

 

[Mitsui]

well, it's my real first name, and it looks nice on paper so i decided, why not.

 

[twotonedsaint]

I dunno, just sorta popped into my head. Plus, it has a nice ring to it.

 

[Beann]

Been my Xbox gamertag since I was like 7. And it's what my siblings call me since I'm Hispanic and the youngest

 

[CeriseFern]

I wanted to be redfern but that was taken. Systematically combed through alternatives for red until I worked out cerise.

Why redfern? Ferns are my favorite plant. Red... IDK why I picked red. It's nice, but not my favorite colour. So... We'll just leave it at that.

 

[reveriee]

ahaha I was listening to Reverie by Debussy and it seemed like a nice word.

 

[AuntyVawks]

I swear, I'm not an anti vaxxer.

 

[IEatOilPaintings]

Because I eat oil paintings. Or at least my friends think I do

 

[theWisher]

I'm a big fan of the Witcher series and I was inspired by the first book, The Last Wish.

 

[stillalive]

It's a song from Portal 2 and makes for a cool lookin usernane

 

[SnapePotions34]

It's a song from Portal 2 and makes for a cool lookin usernane

Good choice. I love that song.

 

[rintarou]

I saw a quote from tumblr years ago that said “she flirts with a tiny halo on”. Added my little twist & it’s my username for everything.

 

[SilverBlack]

Back when I was still an edgy middle schooler, I thought smashing silver and black together makes an edgy cool name. Years have passed since then. People got used to calling me silver. I still use this as my common pen name. Didn’t bother thinking of a new one.

 

[The Waluigist Priestess]

I'm a Legend of Zelda fan, and I like to believe we all have an angel within us bursting to help people and do good things. And thus, "HyrulesAngel" was born

 

[nerdy tangents]

Cuz I kinda regularly go on nerdy tangents. So seemed like a simple fit.

 

[PeteTheWitcher]

Just a stupid OC I made to ship with Ciri from witcher.

 

[raisinmafia]

 

[Dominic]

A random person who later became my friend at a party that I was at when I was 7, kept mistaking me for his cousin and kept calling me Dominic, even though he was too many times that I was not his cousin. It's been a running joke ever since between my friends and me.

 

[Swift_Phoenix]

Swift is the beloved OC I made for my favourite book series the Maze Runner, and over time I developed her backstory, what happened to her after the canon events etc and I ended up making her a lil baby Glader named Phoenix. I was making an account for a website and I thought ‘Hey, why don’t I smush their two names together and make a cool user?’ That username was simply Swiftphoenix but that was taken so I separated it with a dash thingy. So that’s basically how I got my username.
