Etymology of Usernames
M
At first, i wanted to make my name my personal text now ::)
But then i think about it, it feels so long. So i make this random name :P
Since i don't have any sense of name. ::)
G
My name's actually my nickname in real life, there is a rather bizzare story behind it though;
I was in my friend's house with another guy who lived just down the road. My friend whose house it was got called in for dinner and his mother offered me some, I said I was fine, but she still gave me some (I was very skinny at the time and everyone's mothers always tried to fatten me up!) So I was sitting there eating lasagna when I noticed the other guy was filming me on a camera. I thought it was a bit weird, but just ignored him. About a week later I came back to my friends house and his cousin had made a short video out of the clip with the imperial march and some darth vader dialogue behind it, my nick was already gaynor because my first name is very common and everyone uses my surname, so I became gaynorvader.Sorry it's such a long story!
D
My username is my a Pseudonym to my legal name. ::)
J
I use different usernames for different things. One of them, Xue_Dian_Hua, is my name in Chinese, which means "Snow Flower," and also my penname. The name jRockstar11385 came from my music interests (I'm a big fan of J-Rock) and the numbers came from my old ID number back in middle school.
K
Kanakcheek is from neopets, which I spent a ridiculous amount of time getting a nick that wasn't taken. So I liked Kacheek and I just added whatever in front to make it long and hopefully not taken :P
M
my name is my name lol
R
rjsec4ever === RJS is my initials, SEC are my wife's initials (as maiden). Easy to remember and universal in everything. Sadly, the password is universal, too.
M
mine is the name of my business. i use it everywhere because its my email address and some places use email to log in so it makes life easier to just have one thing to remember

Oh well that works too. :) But every time I read your name I will think of
Sin / Cos = Tan
or
Tan = Opposite / Adjacent
