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

[–] momentary@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

My preferred username was already taken a long time ago. This was meant to be a temporary replacement, but now this is my preferred username.

[–] banneryear1868@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Would be a very long comment but it's a reference Black Kettle's betrayal and murder by General Custer.

[–] CaptPretentious@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I thought it was funny

Among us name generator

[–] BitsOfBeard@programming.dev 2 points 2 years 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....

[–] lorez@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

I used to really love William Gibson. It's the name of a fictional musical duo in one of his novels, Idoru.

[–] Dirk@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I am too lazy and boring for a username, so I just use my RL name.

[–] andrr_464@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I like Gallade.

[–] Zyansheep@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Nyan Cat, but different

[–] NakariLexfortaine@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Nakari has "existed" since I was a teenager. Started off as a character I used in writing as an outlet, but slowly the name also became a handle for me. Hell, I guess an entire "presence" since it's my go-to for most sites.

Lexfortaine came around because I wanted something vaguely "proper" sounded in a D&D game, and I never actually got around to giving the character Nakari a "canon" last name. It worked well enough for an asspull, and has just been tracked on ever since. Grown to like it, actually. Feels more like a proper name.

[–] I_dream_of_pancakes@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I was hungry

[–] Default@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

Honestly, Halo 3

[–] CaptainUndebridge@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Everyone gets excited whenever I board a ship

[–] JohnSaveourSocks@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I thought my name in English meant "John Savior", so I just decided to make my online alias "JohnSavour", but for some reason I elongated it to "JohnSaveourSocks".

(Turns out it actually means John Servant, so "JohnServesYou" would've been more accurate.)

[–] fiddlesticks@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago

I have no clue.

[–] flameguy21@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Been using this user name since I made a PSN account when I was 12 lol

[–] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I live on South End and I love sunsets…combined, it makes no fucking sense.

[–] tomkatt@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

It's a variation on what my wife calls me. It's been my username on forums and such for a long time.

[–] ahriboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago

My name is dedicated to the Nine-Tailed Fox from League, who she is my main in Wild Rift.

PS: I haven't played Wild Rift after I felt tired of getting tilted in Ranked.

[–] excitingburp@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Crunchyroll autogenerated it. I liked it.

[–] camillaSinensis@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago
[–] Laila@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Because it's mine and it was available.

[–] Boomkop3@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago

Someone once told me "pick two words and a number"

I did

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Why?

Because one was required.

When?

2001, heading to Assembly '01, a large LAN event in Helsinki.

Or was it '02?

[–] Samsqantxh@lemmy.today 1 points 2 years ago

Autocorrect kinda fudged mine up and I said go it.
