What is the origin of your nickname?

[kater15]

Hi everyone, as the title says, how did you get your nickname? Why did you choose this nickname?

In my case, I have always enjoyed playing The Sims and always raised a family with the surname Kater and the number 15 is like my lucky number. That's when my nickname came up.

I've been using this nickname for 13 years.

[Astolfo2001]

the Strike Freedom Gundam from Gundam SEED Destiny for the "StrikeFreedom" part and the "555" part is there because 5 is my favorite number and it's also supposed to be a reference to Kamen Rider Faiz/555

[Trololo]

Never though I'll find a thread here where I'll want to reply...
Well, my nickname is kind of tribute to Soviet great singer, Eduard Heel, aka "Mr.Trololo" nowadays.
...
I can't upload a link with video... That's real handbreaker, even though I'll nedd just 9 more messages to evade this one...

yeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeye hohohohoho, btw I thought his name was Eduard Khil , I heard his song was an american-inspired song (sorta love song lyrics) that got censored by the Soviet government because it wasn't fitting the Agenda, that's why that man replaced the lyrics with random syllable. One of my favourite things from Russia, after Dostoevskji, Tolstoj, Tetris and The Blue Whale Challenge (just kidding for this last one).

[jlr24lp]

Its been my old username for ages jlr is my initals and lp was from linkin park when they were actually decent it stuck so i kept it.

My nickname in actuality is Taco. Its a long story how it came to be that. For the most part when I took japanese in high school my nick name was Octopus. And Octopus sushi is called Tako. I suffer from dyslexia so for some reason I saw it as Taco not Tako..... and then people teased me for it and the nickname of Taco stuck. So I made it work as my nickname and eventually as people saw it bother me less and less it just became my nick name. :)

[Leon72]

Name+year of birth.

[Melvin8D]

My nickname was when my friend one day called me melvin, which isn't my real name (Not going to give real name), so I added 8D, which looks like a smiley face at the end of Melvin.

[emulator]

It sounds like something a baby would say.

[ictrl]

I couldn't find anything better so I just went with the first thing I saw on my keyboard

[thebuddyadrian]

When I was like 10 or 11 my friends used to call me "Buddy Adrian" so i made that my username on the internet and i added "the" in front of it to make it more "official" i guess.

[Mr.Palomo]

When I was in elementary school, ironically the dialog of the book of English the caricature was called the same.
Coincidentally blond, so I am victim of bullying with the surname Molinovsky.


Postscript: I am Latin american so I do not use the English language.

[TheShepherd82]

heared that a lot of times from brazilian teacher of mein: "in latin america we don`t like english" (short-version;)
so nice you remind me on her with that line, good girl she is :)
my relatives and friends from argentina like english and/or other languages in general.

[Aromaphrenic]

It's based on a weird thing I noticed. I tend to smell things that aren't there. My friends say they're 'nose blind' sometimes cause they can't smell some things, I just say I'm 'nose schizophrenic,' so Aroma=smell and phrenic=schizophrenic, making Aromaphrenic.

[Kipster]

my username has a cringey origin; when i was like 11 I thought I was cool for playing NES and SNES games so I thought I was a hipster, and I took the first letter of my name and mashed them together. Thus, Kipster.

To this day I can't think of a better name
