Thread: where did you get your username from?

Question

Tell us a story about where you got your username!

Make sure you post an ANSWER, not a comment!

Answer 1

In school we had to write a short 10 page book on whatever we wanted. So I wrote a story that follows a person (whose name is This Guy) that jumps into a nintendo switch on Zelda: Breath of the Wild and he helps Link rescue Zelda with a goblin (whose name is: Goblin) from Gannon. So all in all that's how I came up with my username.

Answer 2

It is a username from another game I play. I made this username from slamming the keyboard.
Nothing else, haha.

You should update your old answer instead of adding a new one in case you changed your username, just for organisational purposes.

Answer 4

Well, I am just a random pokemon fan, so my username says it all.

Answer 5

I came up with my username by randomly mashing the keyboard. No, really. It was originally my PS! Username, but eventually became my online name on most platforms.

Answer 6

I used to watch a show every Saturday called Good Game Spawn Point where the hosts Bajo and Hex would review games and answer questions about video games. Back in 2011 I was trying to think of a gamer name for myself and created a portmanteau of their names. As for the exclamation mark before and after my name, I just wanted to be the first name listed in this site's chat room.

Answer 9

I have the username ryter the great because my shield username was ryter (seriously random) and of course I used it in legends arceus and violet. Showdown! wouldn't let me use ryter so I added the great because I'm pretty great. Or whatever. So I used it as my username for here. When name changes came round, I added an er at the end just because. So now my name is ryter the greater for 6 months. Yay. So that's the story of my name.

Answer 14

Im jolteon7, and its pretty simple. my fave pokemon is jolteon, and in my volleyball team im number 7. its not really interesting tbh lol.

Answer 15

My name is currently madregigigas. This comes from one of the first strategy in a double battle, Comfey and Regigigas. The theory was that Comfey could use worry seed to change Regigigas' ability to insomnia. It was a bit of a "mad" strategy in that Whimsicott outclasses Comfey due to prankster and access to tailwind and U-turn.

Comments

Thats cool. I actually used a similar stately with whimsicott and zamazenta back in sword and shield.

Answer 16

My name, Kaikoshi, is the short version of Kaida Ikoshi. It's my internet name- NOT my real name. Basically, if I meet someone cool and they ask, "What's your name?" I just go ahead and tell them to call me Kai.

If you're interested (You aren't), my internet birthday is March 8th. Don't know how it came to be besides me playing Pokemon Scarlet and Nurse Joy asked, "Hey, what's your birthday?" I picked the first date that came to mind, finally realizing in 2026 that it's the 67th day of the year. God, poor Kaida.

Answer 17

Piko is short for my cockatiel, named Pikachu. I call it that way because it's better. I put numbers because i didn't have any other ideas for my name.
