I couldn't come up with shit so I put a random word through a cipher and switched a few letters around

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It just seemed fitting.

[–] Akuma@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Akuma is a boss. Been my favorite all through my childhood.

[–] ike@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Take a wild guess

[–] sanbeiji@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

I was in a little cafe in Taiwan and that's what we ordered.

[–] Wololo@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

It's a reference to age of empires 2. My favorite game during my childhood.

[–] ThaNook@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 year ago

I'm a fan of BNA's tanuki main character Michiru, and Summer Tanuki's storyline, and how Tom Nook's name is pun with Tanuki and...

The stars just aligned for me, I swear.

[–] CaptPretentious@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I thought it was funny

[–] BigNote@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Because it's a pejorative term for a loud-mouthed know-it-all bloviating idiot and I like to keep myself humble and try not to take myself too seriously.

I sometimes say things that may not be 100% correct. I’m only human.

[–] BitsOfBeard@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

I used the same moronic username I got from a name generator for 20 years before Reddit was trashed. I took the opportunity to reinvent myself. I'm a techie with a beard....

[–] TurboNewbe@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

This my first nickname from when I start gaming on line : Star Craft - Broodwar.

[–] hexdream@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago

Because I had to to create an account...

[–] Tandybaum@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Boom, still got it

[–] SilentSeven@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It's from a book I like.

[–] lemonadebunny@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

At the time I hadn't tried limeade

[–] mrchampion@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Years ago, when I was around 13-14, I wanted a "cool" sounding username, since I was also sick of coming up with usernames for websites. I did some thinking, and came up with "Mr.Champion". Used it ever since.

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Good music.

[–] Brisolo32@lemmy.eco.br 2 points 1 year ago

An inside joke

[–] lustyargonian@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I love reading books

[–] spaceduck@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It's such a majestic creature.

[–] westyvw@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Because it said I had to?

Or is the question, WHY did I choose THIS username?

I have no f***ing idea.

Came to me in a dream

[–] UsernameLost@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I lost my username once and couldn't recover the account

[–] GyozaPower@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Wanted something not related to my other usernames and I fucking love gyozas

[–] yuki2501@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I'm trans and I like Sci Fi.

[–] Draconic_NEO@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I just used the name I use on Discord and a few others places.

It was originally Toothless_NEO and still is on Reddit, Steam, and for some reason matrix but I changed it everywhere else I could because an asshole was harassing me and encouraging other people to harass me (had to actually pay money to change it in some places, Xbox live makes you pay to change your username).

[–] qwertychomp@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Because this was my username on reddit before I deleted my account, and I don't have the creativity to think of something else

[–] limpid_luster@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

childhood memory i guess

[–] MargotRobbie@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I'm using my real name because I was here to virally promote a movie, just like all the other celebrities on reddit before.

It was a very successful promotion.
