This has probably been asked before but I wanted to add another layer/an alternative.
So, I ask, where did your username/pseudonym/nickname originate from? What’s the meaning behind it?
Or alternatively, which is the most creative/interesting nickname origin you have come across?
Do I really need to spell it out?
I’m 6’4" / 193cm, so I’m taller than most.
I enjoyed The Talos Principle. And the messages in that world seemed about as real as you guys. I mean that in an endearing way
Around the time I first started using this username about 7 or so years ago, I was playing through the Megaman Zero games, that take place approximately 100 years after the events of Megaman X, which take place during “year 21xx”. So ‘Zero22xx’ specifically references the version of Zero from the Megaman Zero games.
On top of that, I also just thought it was a cool mix of letters and numbers that can look pretty random if you don’t know the games, or if I’m not using a profile pic.
The only annoying thing is that at some point around the time I created this username, I started seeing an anime character called ‘ZeroTwo’ around. So I guess it could be mistaken that I’m referencing that too.
I am kind of introverted, am I actually introvert or socially awkward or whatever doesn’t matter, but for the simplicity I’m introvert and I like cats.
i like the swapnote girl so i borrowed her name
When I was younger, I was crazy about Idaho and wanted to move there. One of my old nicknames was Lil Miss Potatoes. Now I’m a grown ass woman, so I’m Lady Taters. People tend to think it’s a nickname related to my chest though.
I read an article, that the executioner who operated the electric chair was sometimes called the state electrician. I liked that, as I like many little known words and phrases. It has nothing to do with his job, the euphemism just tickled my fancy.
water, metal, pressure and faith.
leaky showers and prayers.
It’s a permutation of a permutation of a pseudo random username.
My username is literal. I’m literally a wood scientist. Or more specifically, I’m a current PhD student in civil engineering and wood science. Identifying Wood by Hoadley was actually a textbook in one of the courses I took.
That’s awesome, keep up the wood work ;)
I do quite a lot of that as well. In fact, woodworking was what made me first consider wood science as a field of study.
Not as many as you might think.
Because I always wanted to have my own theme song.
But really, I browsed through my music collection by alphabetical order and it sounded cool. Blue Öyster Cult always delivers, even with the title of their songs.
I got named Bizzle in like 2008 because my real name wasn’t cool enough, it just stuck
Fo’ shizzle my bizzle
An ex drinking buddy was drunk and high as F and would butcher the name of several people. I couldn’t let this one die.
My username is called after my first home brewed beer. It’s a portmanteau of a slur used for people of my city and the type of beer I brewed that day.
