Forums - General Discussion - What's the story behind your username?

Mine originated back in 2005 with the game Runescape - there were so many names taken, but I didn't want anything with a number in it. I chose "radish head" and I guess it caught on - from about 2008 onwards I took the space out the middle of the two words, however. 

What is the story behind yours? Do you like your username?

If I could change one thing about mine, it would be to put a capital letter at the start- it feels a little untidy as it is :)

Salnax was a character in a story I wrote back in... '07 I guess.



Love and tolerate.

I write stories, I couldn't think of a name for a character. I was sat in a maths class where we were studying the Adjacent, Cosine and the other one I can't spell. I liked Adjacent so I decided to use it, but to make it more unique I decided to change the spelling.
To make sure I didn't forget it, I decided to use it as the name of my email address, I've used it for everything since.

Xbox One: What are you doing Dave?

I wanted something fun and light-hearted to use on okcupid, a dating site.

Well, since my account was on self-requested permaban, I needed to stealth my way back into the community without getting caught. I thought it would be hilarious to reuse my okcupid nick of all things. Then I realized that it had dolphin in it, the codename for my most cherished Nintendo platform of all time, and it contained all the symbols of my first vgchartz nick.

And so, happyD was born.



I took the first letter from the first name of all my rape victims, and so that's how I ended up with mine.





Kidding! I actually just made it up. I wanted something medieval sounding and that's the best I could come up with.



I don't know why people tell me to get a life. I'm a gamer, I have lots of lives!

For dsister I was tired of usernames being taken on Runescape, so I randomly pushed keys till 'dsister' came out.

Tadpole Jackson is a tiny subcharacter in Soul Eater.

"Porcupine" is a character from my favorite movie "Stalker"

He doesn't actually appear in the movie, but they talk about him and what happened to him.

Scientist, writer, and their guide stalker are on a journey inside a forbidden zone to a secret room that will grant you a wish if you enter it. Stalker tells them the story of porcupine and his brother who had been to that room. only porcupine returned and after becomming immensly rich he commited suicide.

and on their way they figure out what had happened to them, just as they arrive at the room.



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

- George Orwell, ‘1984’
