[navin]

my name backwards with an n at the end
i wanted to spelled it nanvin because of the brand but i misspelled it :(

[verilyvert]

I just enjoy the way verilyvert sounds. When I'm bored I make up rhymes for it:
verilyvert is barely there and rarely square yet fairly cares, etc.

[bueno]

I really like Kinder Buenos. Ate way too many of them when i lived at home. There is just something about them that no other chocolate bar can come close to in my opinion.

[wiggly--woo]

i chose this name cos i crawls arounds in your gardens and

in all seriousness, one of my earliest memories is singing 'wiggly woo' (linked above) at pre-school when i was about 3 or 4. to this day it resonates with me on a ddeply spiritual level.

[Prince of Scandinavia]

I'm regal.

[eufemism]

I was listening to Earl Sweatshirt's song Woah when he said, "Gooey writtens, scoot 'them to a ditch, chewed and booty scented/Too pretentious, do pretend like he could lose with spitting/Steaming tubes of poop and twisted doobies full of euphemisms."

But mostly I changed to this username because on reddit I had a super old school aol esque username.

[rublev]

The painter and the film !!!

[chilljin]

played a troll rogue on wow since release, chillin with a j cos it just sounded jamaican. stuck ever since

[YoungCanoeist]

Was eccentrica on reddit after eccentrica galumbits, the three-boobed-hoe from Eroticon Six in Hitchiker's Guide. Also I felt like I was an eccentric person in 9th grade.......Got sick of that, so a while ago I inquired to no one in particular how to change a username on care-tags, and germ messaged me a couple weeks later. I had no ideas or inclinations so I told him to create a name for me and make it whatever he felt. So now I'm YoungCanoeist. Couldn't be happier!~~

But really though I get a kick out of this name. Thx bb germ.

[Mippipopolous]

The Sun Also Rises is one of my favorite novels, Count Mippipopolous is a minor character. The Count's greatness and the fact that he probably has the best name in all of literature became a running joke between me and my sister, so I thought what the hell. So fun to say, such a bitch to remember how to type. Luckily it's almost second nature now.

[Mippipopolous]

Agreed! You wanna go on a fishing trip to the Pyrenees with me and drink wine chilled in a mountain stream? That section is one of my absolute favorites, Hemingway writes so beautifully about spending time in nature. Wish there was more of that in my life right now.

[AmericanPie]

Mine was a inside joke/nickname for me that everyone else forgot.

[silvaeri]

I was a dumb 11 year old on the internet way back when (weren't we all?) and I wanted to imitate this one /super cool user/ on some forum who went by Gold, so I made my name Silver. Which evolved to Silvaeri when I played WoW and now I'm too damn lazy to think of any new name cause I've been using some variation of this on the internet for over 10 years now.

[jrisk]

jrisk is short for jonrisk and I just thought it looked cooler when it was shorter. maybe I'll ask to get it changed.

jon's my first name and the "Ri" is the first two letters of my middle and Sk is the first two letters of my last.

[IsaiahSchafer]

Two years ago when I joined reddit I was binging on Community. Everyone was constantly telling me how much I reminded them of Abed (thanks I think?) and there's an ending of the show where Abed keeps asking Troy if he's krumping correctly. I also like dancing. I probably would have changed it, but I like being able to be recognized across the different sites. (Used to be Mr Fusion in my RP-writing days *cringe*, and am "businessocelot" on a couple sites too)

[msc]

my initials...

[sunblam]

Sunblam is a bastardization of Sundblom(, Haddon), a Swedish illustrator who drew pin-ups and Coca Cola Santa's in the early 20th century. I liked the sound.

[balloons]

god, I wish I knew

I half want to change it
half not want to have to go thru everyone being confused and then relearning my name

[starfox64]

^lol

(get it?)

confession: i never owned starfox 64 as a kid. my only copy is on wii virtual console. (same with mario kart 64 actually).

[===]

my first, middle, and last name are "equal," they all translate to john

[omgimacarrot]

Episode of South Park with Rob Schnieder where he goes "I'm a carrot" do do do de do. Just turned into omgimacarrot and use it for almost every handle, so if you see a carrot, its prob me

[RomanEmpire]

First name is Roman, so naturally got a lot of nicknames relating to that including Roman empire, roman numeral, ramen noodles, etc. So now I usually just pick one and use it lol.

The name I use on reddit and irc though is NiteClaw. When I was younger me and my friends played on private server for a game called dragonica, and we decided to make a guild called The Nites. We were like 12 and we thought it sounded cool, and we all made names that started with Nite and I decided on adding Claw. We ended up being a pretty big guild because we invited so many people to the guild, and people would recognize us. It was a lot of fun, first mmo I ever played. Then when I made my reddit account I used the same name because I couldn't think of anything else.

[Thomnd]

I like thom yorke. then I poked some random keys.

[thatbiglake]

nn

[sparkyoriental]

in 10th grade my bff and I decided on our porn star names if school didn't work out for us

result: sparky oriental

i have no idea why I've chosen it to be my username. it's not what I typically use.

[fountainstairs]

I forgot my book at the fountain stairs. At a chapter on symmetry, nobody cared.

[kraftflag]

at the time i made my account, i had been listening to a lot of black flag and kraftwerk..

[Vaeltaja]

Vaeltaja is Finnish for "Wanderer" and I ended up doing some serious wandering in high school (multiple high schools). It's Finnish because I love heavy metal and Finland is considered a sort of "metal Mecca."

[bhajz]

In 6th grade I weirdly idolized a call of duty player whose name was "Jrubz", his name was Joe Rubin, so I paid the $20 or whatever it was at the time to change mine to "Bhajz" (Brian Hajal), and it somehow stuck.
