How Did You Pick Your Username

[Nova 503]

I tend to get mine from fav char in anime series ,currently mine is from magic knight rayearth part of hikaru heart.so guys tell me where did you get username?

[dirudiru 64]

I like Dir en grey, who are often called 'diru' by fans.
'diru' was already taken on the site I first used it, so I just doubled it.
It then became my go-to name for most places.

[Ohiotaku 923]

Ohio + Otaku. I use Ohayotaku on MAL

fairly obvious

[FeelsGudManINC 19]

It's just the 'feels gud man' meme, plus Feel Good Inc (the song by Gorillaz)

Memes + Gorillaz = Pretty cool username

I reaaaaly love your MAL name.

 

Mine is based off of Sesshoumaru. I just shortened it to make it a cute abbreviation 

[The History Kid 624]

I mentioned it over here:

I've used it anywhere I can - there's only one or two where it isn't in use, simply because it's taken.  Interestingly enough, Facebook and Twitter are not one of those places.

[Xyro 616]

Mine's a kind of lame but long winded one, to be fair.

Xyro is the main name for my OC within MMaM. The purpose of the name is that he, as one of the first lab-grown children, was the catalyst used for most of the others from there, which meant he was specimen "0".

Long story short, when he was taken from there, his father named him "Xyro", due to a lack of creativity on his part and his uncanny social unawareness.

That's literally it. very, very lame as far as origins go ;-;

[BleachKing96 23]

I think mine is relatively obvious 

I'm a huge Bleach fan and know everything about it. Though I do watch other anime too. Plenty of others

Didn't know that, but somehow it is eerily fitting. With the whole gun, military, and bodybuilding things my stereotypical mind tended to put you in the 'not entirely effeminate' category (lack of better description), and basing your name on a guy character fits that

You know me so well

My current one, Kazuto Kirigaya is probably because I'll cosplay them, one day, maybe, but who knows.

I've used this current one for pretty much all online things for about maybe 12+ years now I think. Sanguine can mean some very different things. It can mean blood or having a relation to blood, and bloodthirsty among similar things, yet on the other hand it can mean eager and optimistic. Crying is similar in that people can cry for entirely opposing reasons, both from extreme happiness or sadness. So, putting the two words together can refer to some vastly different things that are sort of opposite on the cheerfulness spectrum, which felt fitting given I have bipolar disorder.

That, and I just really like the ring of it and blood-red color~

[Humbby 154]

I picked a random name,  another random name and another random name. I did them in a blender and Humbby came out of It,  It was love at first sight. It has no meaning though sometimes people call me Humble Humbby because it sounds good.

I am happy because when i got this name nobody was using it. Now i have a few name stealers (not a lot) but oh well,  cant be original forever.

[Zombunny 15]

I've been using the same username everywhere for YEARS! I can't remember where I originally got it from. Wasn't anime though. 

Much like Humbby it wasn't taken anywhere in the beginning but now it seems to be taken almost everywhere. 

[RyePotatoes 872]

Rye came from my real name and Potato is beacuse I am a potato. Not that creative actually. I do remember that I have another name here before but I forgot what it was. It was such a long time agooooo. Omg.

[ArchieKun 790]

I was deciding on a new one that I thought I would like. I always liked how ArchAngel sounded so I decided on that, but also thought Archie for short sounded even better. I may change again one day, but for now as well as foreseeable future I thinm,k the name rather suits me. 

[Kanamesensei 35]

Ooh this is a good one.  I picked Kanamesensei because I fell in love with Vampire Knight.  On other forums, I would use Kaname for short.  I prefer the sensei part.

Not gonna lie, I only remember what we called you for short, Maley I think. I am pretty sure the word Malice was in it.... hard to say, it was like 3 years ago~

...dear lord, it has been so long.

Oniiiiii-samaaaaa! I hope you're fine and all. I think it has a Malevolent in it. Ryuji actually came up with "Maley"

I am more or less okay, I hope you are doing well too~

Oh yeah, that's right!

Sakura from Naruto. I like adult Sakura and it matches @Sasuke
