Lets see why everyone chose their username, its preety interesting to see why you chose what you did..
I'll start, The Last Oath because i was fond of the song, The Oath from ff8 and was gonna make it The OAth, but wanted something better. "Last" Oath.. :)
I chose my username because it is my name . :cat:
Goldenboko and I were making jokes about "PuPu" from FF8. This started a little while before I joined Eoff, so that's why I have this name.
Mine is a reference to Cowboy Bebop.
i choose mine coz this is how my ex-gf's viewed me - as a good kid. :D
psyche!
It's my name. :jess:
I learned at a young age that I was the chosen one.
Owait, you mean my username....
:shifty:
I poked two pins in a dictionary, then changed it slightly for awesomeness.
It's my name...sadly.
Devil ma-
It sounded cool.
No idea.
I swear, this is the third name thread I've posted in. Lucky, right?
A friend called me it once in a fit of randomness and since then it's stuck as my internet name.
It's a title of a song by Amber Pacific.
When translated into German it roughly means 'evil'.
My name was chosen with help from a random name generator. :)
me and a group of friends joined ffoblivion together as neo_(insert ff7 character here) i wound up w/ tifa cuz i had a secret crush on neo_cloud. :) i just omit the _ now
edit: and (besides sephiroth of course), tifas my fav ff7 character
It's a variation off a real life nickname. I think I've posted in like 10 of these threads already :p That's okay though, because my name keeps changing. Hmmm to change now or not to change...
It is just what everyone has always called me since I was born. Parents... teachers... everyone.
Because it seemed like a good idea at the time.
heh kind of a weird story and probably not exactly what you expect...(doesn't have to do with terminator or anything...err...explicit)
I was making a character for an online game years ago...i think it was Tibia...and I was just shown the Trogdor animation on Homestarrunner... Trogdor the Burninator was taken (surprise) so i got creative..and since my last name was wood i decided Trogdor the Woodinator...since then Woodinator just stuck to me with online screennames...
I create a Legacy of Omnipotence everywhere I go.
I was getting tired of using Jesse1 everywhere, so I started a thread and crop suggested Jessweeee. I added an eighthnote because it's purdy :greenie:
I'm a good guy. I swear I am.
Passworded!!1~
An old friend of mine named me such. I'm thinking of changing it, though. I'm not really a Rikku type of person anymore.
I have no idea. O: I was a wierd twelve year old, who knows why and how I chose it. xD
I'm a Tolkien nerd. :greenie:
Back in the ezboard days the forum software wouldn't allow periods in your names and that's how I came to be known as Dr Unne.
Random words that are never taken.
It just happened.
I got really into constilations and stars and stuff after reading a manga called 'More Starlight to Your Heart' and my favorite character kept making references to stardust.Then I threw celestial in front of it because I thought that the celestial motes in Star Ocean were cute.
And I think it sounds pretty.... :D

Those forumgoers shortened it further to things such as 'ruby' 'rubes' 'woobah' 'rhubarb' and many others, however, the one that stuck was a mirror of the nicknames that the girl herself gave out to everyone else, 'rubah'.
besides it's cute ^_^
My first name with the surname that I wish I had
I'm changing my username soon, thus I can't adequately answer this at the moment. My old username was born out of this - A. there was already a Vincent B. It was slightly cheaper. (half-quote from Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Don't Panic).
I told myself I would never do change this name, but I'm going to, and Shlup can't stop me! lol
I'm tired of knee-jerk responses that I'm an illiterate "fanboy". Just the opposite.
~Viva La Revolution~
One of the first friends that I made back when I was young wanted me to make up a name for something. He didn't accept any names I came up with. Finally, I came up with the name "Evastio" and he accepted it. The name stuck to me ever since.
Let's see...i joined here in '04?
I was obsessed with my other username 'kayla416'...but I decided not to use it. My favorate character is Lulu, from FFX/X-2...and I wanted to be her 'girl' (home-girl...not daughter). :p

Title of my first drawing.
A'yo, that's my rap name son!:cool:
Let's say it just happened ;) Owen and I were talking about stars and the universe and he started calling me Polaris! ^^
It's my name.
My parents hated me.
I don't really know...i just thought about it.
I was playing FFX then :greenie:
I was playing kingdom hearts, then I drifted to this site on the internet. Then I went qwerty, and stuck an xsora on it.:D
I picked mine cause I like the anime I got it from. Ergo Proxy.
you got to keep your head upQuote:

Your mom gave it to me.......... nobody else did it so I had to, but I wanted to do something with sephiroth and my best friend had a username that wrked with it after I joined
Ergo Proxy kicks ass, and now I at least know that thinking of Ergo Proxy everytime I see you post was the correct reaction.Quote:

Well, I was originally Nutshell. I got the name from my favourite Alice in Chains song.
Then I changed it to something like Mojo Dream or Mojo Pin, either way it was based on the song by Jeff Buckley.
Then I changed it to Omecle from a random fantasy name generator around a year and a half before Final Fantasy XI come out; to use for the game.
The character Hsu from Hsu and Chan, which was published in EGM a while back... I don't know if it still is, I haven't kept up in a long time. I should check out that guy's site again soon. His comics were pretty great.
My middlename is Breinholt and so Breine [Brei-neh] used to be my real-life nickname back in the day, and I guess that's why I chose it.

That's why.
Slade kicks ass. I kick ass. It was only fitting to take his name as my own.
Blackmage was taken
I was originally just "Psi" but because of the amount of people who thought it was a joke account set up by Psychotic ('tis the impression I am getting any of the ways) I decided to have it slightly changed.
"Psi" is taken from my real name, "Simon" (the "P" is silent) and means absolutely nothing. It has nothing to do with psychic/psionic (what a dumb new word) powers. It can, however, be written using the Greek letter if you so desire.
The "Reload" prefix represents a desire to put my rather crappy past behind me and keep moving forward in my life.
Way back when I liked Seiken Densetsu 3 and had started to dislike 'Kuja Trance.' Honestly, what was I thinking? But yeah, Heath was a decent enough character to merit nicking the name. Some of others was taken and if I'd called myself Duran, I'm sure I'd be constantly hounded by the tune of Girls on Film whenever I visited the forums.
Dunno, sometimes I feel like changing Heath to something better, but nothing ever comes to mind.
I signed up a site years a ago, and everything I tried was taken. so I randomly stung some letters together, jumbled them around a bit and I got Azalar [pronounced Az-Ahh-lar] and since then ive used it.
No Mercy seemed cool, but not cool enough.
As a Russian Mountain Cat I felt the name of a sweet potato suited my outlook on life.
[QUOTE=Woodinator;2317890]
Trogdor the Burninator was taken (surprise)QUOTE]
I tried having that name too...
I chose "Dr. Acula" from a Scrubs episode.
a friend of mine had this username for some online things then he died i took the name stalpho slayer (master of death)was his nickname on certain things
Dunno, i wanted a name that didn't have numbers (My merory sucks) and I thought of Clawz...but that name sucked, so, I experimented, and got Clawsze. And in those 3 years, i use this for all my usernames.
Because I'm a damn Hazzard. That's good enough reason.
Heeheehee
REAL story: I once caught a massive spider and named it boris (after that Who song Boris the spider or whatever). My sister hates spiders so I chased her about with it shouting BORIS BORIS BORIS and she shouted NO NO NO; hence, boris no no :D
FAKE story: I am Russian bearded men.
A hazard to the English language maybe.Quote:

I thought it sounded cool.
Now it sounds stupid.
