    My first username was major yikes. I was googling around for MPic answers because I really wanted a gold trophy, and that's how I found Ck. So I just created a throwaway username and when MPic got changed to Ck+ I totally forgot about Ck.

    Recently (1-2 months ago), I decided to check it out again, and I realized that the community of people here is also really nice, with some quite engaging topics of discussion! It was also around the time of the Ryugotchi initial craze. So I became more involved in the community and changed my UN to my favourite Dota character (Crystal Maiden) after I ranked up!

    Edit to Add:

    The @(you need an account to see links) story is amazing. I was low-key curious about the origin of the UN and I loved the story! Sephora is also one of my favourite stores.

    My original username, Demeter, is the name of my favorite character in Cats the Musical. If any of you are familiar, she sings the song "Macavity" with Bombalurina (the red one).

    Nowadays I get most of my usernames from an Arthurian name dictionary or Shakespeare plays. Although I liked the name "Flordibel" purely for how it rolled off the tongue, the story of the character made me, as the writer say, quirk a brow:

    Heroine of Der Pleier’s 'Tandareis and Flordibel.' The daughter of the King of India, she was sent to Arthur’s court as a child to serve Guinevere. Sure that she would never love a man willingly, she asked Arthur for his promise to slay any man who succeeded in winning her love.

    Over the next ten years, however, she fell deeply in love with one of her servants: a page named Tandareis. Fearing Arthur’s vow, the two lovers fled court for Tandareis’s home castle of Tandernas, which Arthur subsequently besieged. Peace was reached, but on the condition that Tandareis leave for foreign lands until he could prove his honor.

    Despondent, Flordibel returned to Arthur’s court and waited. After he had won fame through a series of adventures, Arthur invited Tandareis back to court, and he and Flordibel were wed. She became Queen of Malmontan and Mermin, two kingdoms that Tandareis had conquered.

    It was the name of one of my first characters from an MMORPG I played over 10 years ago.
    I don't know why I chose that in the first place either.

    I based my username off of a guild (it wasn�t named quirky quill) I was in 10 years ago. Have never been able to find anyone who was a prt of it and google shows me nothing. It became adult only and they were kicking out anyone who wasn�t 18+ but i was 13 so I lied and said I was born in 1985. I ended up leaving cause I was scared they were gonna find out lol RIP!!

    my former username (bedlam) was the ultimate ability of one of my favorite dota 2 heroes (dark willow)
    Saturnine is a pretty uncommon word but I found about it on lyrics of a band I like. It's not used much but some describe it as a synonymous for gloomy (like the planet) and I thought that was cool/describes my mood currently, ngl.
    "Darkness fears the break of dawn!"

    I had a different user name that I changed because overall, I didnt like it.

    But everything else I tried was taken so i was like goddammit I'm never gonna come up with something I like.

    And well. It worked. Goddammit, which is probably one of my most used phrases.

    Between you and motherfucker, that's like half my work vocabulary. Both names make me smile when I see them.

    Not the DND class I play most often, but the one I am most consistently compared to as a person / the inevitable in any remotely self-insert situation lol. I have a longstanding joke with a close friend that I’m a druid and she’s a warlock - my house is full of plants and my pets follow me everywhere so I get it
