I was talking in Discord and then someone made a joke about a person's username. Then it got me thinking how did you come up with your username?
For me I was one day in a stream from someone called Xisumavoid, I thought it would be funny to call myself "The_Evil_Xisuma" Once I got to the stream it was near the end and they were raiding someone called Jandoncom. I liked the raid and stuck around, months later under this name i didn't want to be copying someone else's name but was comfortable with the name I had so decided to shorten it to "Evil_X"

I was making a roblox account and was like "hmmm what do I name myself?" Eventually, I came up with DubstepJoltik because I liked dubstep (not really anymore but whatevs) and I liked Joltik (still my favorite pokemon) so tada.

Initials and birth year because I want someone to compromise all my personal assets as easily as possible.

As an avid space lover, I decided to have "cosmo" in my name but since I didn't want to be generic I looked up a list of suffixes and found -arium. Boom, Cosmonarium was born.

About 3.5-ish years ago, I was obsessed with fezzes for whatever reason, so I chose my GD username to be Fezgaming. I later realized how stupid this sounded, so I changed it to Fezzie. However, about 1.5 years ago, I got into linguistics and decided to learn the IPA. I decided that I liked the sounds of front rounded vowels, so I changed the first vowel in my username from /ɛ/ to /øː/. In order to make this change not seem random, I also changed the spelling from Fezzie to Fœ̄zi.

As for my current username I just thought of the NOX android emulator and extended it, then turned to Denoxi

My nickname was created in a similar way to KrmaL's current nickname. I used parts of my very old nickname and used a slightly modified version of the pronunciation of my shortened old nickname.
I wish I was so creative with nicknames these days...

First online thing I ever signed up for was under my middle name followed by a 7. I’ve kept the number 7 and never a different number since then.
Then I changed it to Lemon7 when I was very young still
Then, a while after I started playing minecraft, I put a cake block on a melon block and thought it looked cool. So I named myself TheMelonCakeStand. (This is seriously embarrassing and is only topped by my brother calling himself Required222 since the username box said “Username is required”)
I tried making some YouTube videos under the alias TheMelonCakeStand but to no avail, so I decided to take youtube ‘seriously’ and came up with a new name for myself. Blazes were and still are by far my favourite monster in minecraft, and I really liked the nether as a whole. So, I came up with Blazemaster7, along with my own little lore of how an ordinary guy became king of the blazes. Yes, I do remember exactly how it goes. You can still find the Blazemaster7 YouTube channel today, I unlisted all the videos but just ask and I can send you some pretty great stuff including voice acting lol.
A bit less than a year later in the middle of 2014 is when my modern username developed. I thought Roblox looked interesting and I wanted to register for it, but when I tried, the username Blazemaster7 was taken. I was a little annoyed but I quickly thought of a new substitute; Blazedude7. Wait, nah that sounds a bit dorky, how about Blazedude77, that has a bit more ring to it.
Eventually I just signed up for everything under Blazedude77, some accounts of mine I use have the username to this day, such as my Steam.
In mid 2017 is where my current username arose. I decided to shorten Blazedude77 to just BlazeD77 in Geometry Dash and I thought that had a better sound to it and the lettering looks better too. I go by just Blaze like I have for 4 years but I sign up for whatever I can under BlazeD77.
By the way, it’s Blaze D 77, not Blazed 77.

So I originally was Aim, but that sounded stupid. I then tried to think of a name for YT and Terraria for about two weeks. I came up with Swift from the swift potion in Terraria and how I was the fastest sprinter in my school at the time. And than ergaming cause I’m the “swiftest gamer”. This sounds so stupid XD Anyways, I usually just go by Swifter :3

I was into roleplaying Warrior Cats at the time (I still enjoy the books and *chilling* with people I used to know from roleplay), thus picked the name of my favorite character I created.
It was better than ChaoticZD, though (Chaotic was my generic username for a long time [until I came back to the forums], and ZD stood for ZeroDash, a small creating group I was a part of at the time)...
