One day I created a reddit account. I used a couple of names but they were all taken. That's when I let fate decide my name. The gods bestowed upon the name StrikingDebate2. This name has been with me for so long why should I leave it? Why should I reject the gods judgement? Of course, you can just call me striker for short.

Because I collected lots of bionicles and I thought the rahkshi were cool as hell with awesome powers plus cool staffs as weapons.

Because it is my reddit username
I like bagels.
Loved homestarrunner.com when I was a kid
It's my name. Anonymity is an illusion.
'cause I like to pretend I am a cool guy. I like to live in my own little Lemmy.world =D
The logical conclusion to being a skeptic is being punk.
been using this username for about 15 years. i guess i could have tried my preferred version from years before that, i bet it's still available. but anyway, this username is just me at this point.
I wanted to use my IRL given name instead of a nickname, so here I am.
its my name, i picked my name, i like my name
Been using it for years in various places, though mostly while locally testing variables and such. Similar to 'aFile, bFile, cFile'.
Have been a part of the lightweight backpacking community for a decade plus now. Have always loved the insane lengths folks go to shave a few ounces, such a funny hobby to me. I also just love the name.
It's one of my favorite characters from the disgaea series.
I misunderstood a lyric from Zappa's "Joe's Garage" decades ago.
I own that misunderstanding and prefer it to the original!
Because it's my Hobbit name.
dunno, been using it for ~20 years now
Just finished playing Yakuza:LAD
Carbolyzed Marinara sounded too formal.
Used a url generator thingie, and then used the name it came up with as my username everywhere
It's cool. 😁
Because it doesn't matter what my username is. It's just a unique identifier for my data on Lemmy. I use my password generator to also generate short usernames.
Meh, I'm interested in the macabre. And it was the first thing I thought of when that abusive doucher in Texas started whining about ending no fault divorces a few weeks ago.
Fall of 1993, I'm in a college dorm trying to pick an IRC handle. Let out a very loud and nasty burp.
My buddy says "Man, that was a weird burp". So that almost became my nick, weirdburp. At the last moment I went with weirdfish as Fish was my nickname in high school.
At this point, despite being a bit annoying to explain, it is who I am outside of work. Literally every search results for "pezhore" is me.
bin ein michi
Wanted to distance myself from my previous username because the idea of being recognized is scary to me for some silly reason, so I blended a name from my favorite video game with the theme of the instance I joined.
Gol Golathanion, but from the TTRPG setting Golarion.
