Typo on CoC. Paid money, didn't want to restart, so I kept it. I like it, and now use it on most accounts.

Thought is was a play on words with CSS (style sheet language) />

Ha! That would be funny! Maybe I should go learn that... Lol

Learn that and HTML, they go well together

[TheOutcast5]

Backstory to my username. Hmmm....

Well the creation of this username was something I made up ages ago. I had always thought of myself as an outcast to others so I decided on TheOutcast and added the number 5 because it was my favourite number at the time.

[mitterdoo]

my father called me this constantly when i was like four - six years old. he stopped after i was like 7 - 8 ish, but i still use it for many accounts online today.

[GravityScore]

The only backstory to mine was that Gravity and Score were the two words I thought up first when creating a Minecraft account. Not that exciting

[ETHANATOR360]

i got my username when me and a couple of friends were playing golden eye for the ds when i was like 8 or 9 it stuck but now it feels childish and i dont like that much anymore

[Agoldfish]

It started way back in 2008n on my friends game system, I think it was the Wii, but i'm not sure, anyway, they had you choose your own IGN, and when you killed someone it said:

<ign1>Got killed by...<ign2>

So I thought it would be funny to be killed by Agoldfish! Then I used it on some more sites, like fr2.me, and Canvas Rider, both websites for the same game! Of course, I changed my name for the time being, but Agoldfish will be back soon.

[biggest yikes]

(This is sort of outdated, my current username is a spinoff of "That one guy" in Danish, although I did make a typo..)
For my name I don't have the most exciting backstory, or absurd at all, but Minimite is actually a username based about 5 years ago when we still played the sport called Hockey. The lowest rank of that is referred to as a "minimite".
Also, I find it hilarious for it to say (if the 1st user is 'Dude' for example): "Dude was slain by minimite" because it's referring you are a weak person, like a young person murdered you. Ha-ha!

[Rectar2]

Mine came from when I was but a lad. I was watching a Rugrats movie thing with Reptar, the dinosaur in it. I misheard it as "Rectar." I was signing up for some form of online game, of which I now cannot remember, and "Rectar," surprisingly, was taken. I put a 2 on the end of it, and the name stuck.

[TheOddByte]

Hmm.. My username origin? Well I'll tell you about my old and my new.
When I were younger and me my brother and some other people played LAN together, my brother called himself 'HellCell' at first and I thought that sounded "cool". I wanted something similiar and thought of Hellkid, it was used on many sites so I had to add 98 at the end, hence Hellkid98. Now about my new username, TOBIT may think I got it from kinda copying his username, but it's actually
that I like 8bit graphics, 8 bit is equivalent to 1 byte and I can feel kinda odd at times. I just felt that 'The' fit in the beginning of the name and sounded better.

[cdel]

sorry for the necro, just feel like it. Nothing special or interesting really, pretty much an abbreviation (kinda) for my full name, c(onnor)del(aney).

[HDeffo]

My name comes from a few years back I use to have a friend who talked very much with his own slang.(much to my annoyance often ) The first letter of my last name actually starts with an H so a lot of times he would refer to me just as H. One day at school some kids decided to start a rap battle during our free period and asked if anyone else wanted to join in. My friend told them (yes this is how he talked) "Yo, H deffo will". After that I kind of just joked that H-Deffo was apparently my rap name now. Started using it as a username because I was too lazy to really come up with anything else cool and eventually removed the hyphen since most websites don't accept it.

[kornichen]

My username as it is kornichen is based on my surname. Originally it was körnchen because some people called me that in primary school. Körnchen is basically my surname plus the German diminutive ending on chen. At some point I tried to register somewhere and noticed that nearly no service supports German umlauts in names so I changed it to kornchen by replacing ö with o. Later I added the i between n and c because it is easier to pronounce. Good about that username: I was never trying to register somewhere where that username was already taken. Contra: In German it sounds really stupid, don't really know how it would be pronounced in English but I think that might be stupid, too.

[KingofGamesYami]

My username originates from the YU-Gi-oh original series, the main character being Yugi, who's alter-ego is called Yami and is a master of almost every game. (Note: I'm talking about the books here, not the TV show). I originally used the name on my Minecraft account, and since then, have used in regularly. Alternatively, I also use KingofGamesAtem, because at the end of the TV series it is revealed that his alter-ego's true name is Atem.

Yet another username I've started using only recently is Corran Horn, who is a fairly obscure Jedi Knight I read about in I, Jedi. He's a pretty neat character, having very weak telekinetic abilities, but possesses very strong mind manipulation abilities. This leads to him using a very unique style of fighting, based more on projecting illusions in his opponents mind, or controlling them directly if they have a weak mind. He also uses a rarely used lightsaber, consisting of two jewels. His lightsaber has two modes, one which is normal length, and one which is about 1.5 normal length. The blade also changes color when switching between these two modes.

[Geforce Fan]

I am a fan on a geforce card.
I am also a fan of the Geforce card series.

Is that a pun?

My name is quite simple, or so. Way back in the days of Runescape, my brother and his friends wanted me to create a new character to join their "guild" thing, in which we had to have 535 at the end of our usernames. I, being obsessed with dragons, (as well as being a rebel) named myself dragon53535. And have used the name since then, I don't actually know why. (Also, at one point my RS password was "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz " without the quotes, don't ask)

[_removed]

My nickname for family used to be smigger, and when I signed up for the MC account, I decided to go with smigger22. I got the 22 from a random number generator. I use the same name for XBOX360, Steam and other websites as well.

[Dahknee]

Haha mine is pretty simple, the Danny is of course part of my first name as it is originally Daniel, and SM are the intials of my last name; as it is double-barreled. The c is the second letter in the second part of my last name, as DannySM didn't sound so cool, and then I stuck a c on it. DannySMc is my name for everything, but I have another version which is dannysmc95 which is the same as the other one except I just added the last two digits of my birth date on .

Now this is the weird part I had an old username (which is my PlayStation Network name) which is: emokiller95, this was because my best friend at the time was called gothkiller or something like that and yeah we made a weird clan, in the end I hated the name because I listen to the "emo" type of music, but yeah I was 13 when I made it, and 6 years down the line I feel like such an idiot >.<. I can't change it either as It has all my trophies and game information on...

Remember to make a username you will like 5 years down the line otherwise you will feel like such an idiot hahaha.
