Title: What's Behind the Username?
Post by: Silvertide on November 23, 2012, 03:39:47 am

Hullo der everyone, I was just wondering about usernames and their meanings lately. :o That is if there is a meaning. xD My own username, "Silvertide" is supposed to be like the ocean tide turned silver by the moonlight, thus it's a silver tide. Make sense? Yush~ I'v met a few people who have meanings behind their usernames, but others just pick the name for no reason at all and just add random numbers at the end of it. Does anyone else have a meaning behind their username?

I picked mine, wolfdog01, because ya know, it kinda had a jingle to it and I like wolves and dogs, the 01 doesn't really have a meaning, just another little addition to the jungle.

Mine is my first name in Organisation XIII format, from Kingdom Hearts 2.
(switch around the letters and shove in an 'X').
Extra points if you can figure out what it is :P

Lady Alizarin....

Lady= A woman of a high social position or economic class.

Alizarin= a solid reddish-orange as crystals and brownish-yellow as powder. One of the earliest known dyes, formerly obtained in its natural state from madder and now derived from anthraquinone: used chiefly in the synthesis of other dyes. (Any color of deep redish brown)

So there you have it. I wanted a username with the word "Alizarin" in it, and I put "Lady" infront of it to give it an extra kick.

Kopat was a monster thingy I created when I was little. The first time I used it was my Webkinz account when I was 5 and then, I just started using the name on all my accounts on every single game and website o3o.

Silver Leopard.
I used this username in a game before I joined Feral Heart called iPredator. I loved leopards at the time and still do. Then I just sorta added Silver..
To get Silver Leopard ^.^

Mmm. I have a somewhat meaning to my user, 'liontamer1.' Well I obviously like lions, and the other part, 'Tamer' Is because...um...My mother actually came up with this when I was like 5, and it stuck.

Post by: Abomine on November 23, 2012, 09:38:49 pm

My username doesn't have any particular meaning. It's just something that I made up one day while I was signing up for Grand Fantasia (or some kind of MMORPG). Well, I ended up not playing Grand Fantasia (or whatever it was called), but I liked the name, so now I use it as my forum and in-game username.

StarWarsWolf7! I was obsessed with Star Wars when I joined feralheart, I knew I was going to role play as wolves quite often, and my favorite number is seven. Mine is pretty straight forward unfortunately ^^' LOL! There are certainly some interesting ones out there though :3!

Post by: Absinthe on November 24, 2012, 04:09:40 am

Hm. Well, I have two accounts.
This one. Absinthe is well... Absinthe. That green alcoholic beverage that they say makes you hallucinate (but there are so many debates about it that it's not even funny). So it doesn't really have a meaning to it.
The other, which is my major roleplay account, (whereas Absinthe is just a chill-out, roleplay sometimes account) is WhiteCrow. Which is my favorite one of the two.
That one has a big, in depth meaning. It's a "what if" kind of deal. It's way more than that, but I honestly don't feel like typing anymore. XD

It's to bad Disney owns Star Wars and now they're making a 7th movie; money hogs are never fatty happy they're always in for the greens TT^TT

Post by: SilverTW on November 24, 2012, 01:31:09 pm

There's no meaning behind my username, other than SilverTW being short for SilverTheWolf. I don't like the color silver as much as I love purple, however.

xD There's not much behind my Username.

I'm just Firepool cuz of one of my O.C's.

Post by: LiesUnderOath on November 24, 2012, 10:46:13 pm

At one point in time, there probably was a long description to go with my username (LiesUnderOath), but I don't remember what it was, though the name still fits me personally. x3
As to my forum name: Faylix is the name of my main character, in other games I play as well as in-game here. I just added the "Lady" at the beginning because I wanted it to sound..well..regal-like. o.o

Mines Denio, cause well I like it. It makes me sound all professional and not a little kid.
Also I read a book and it said Denio meant terrible in Greek or something; And I can be terribly shy in real life.~

Well, when I was into the Warriors series I named my OC Blindstar. And I was born in 97 so combine those two and bamf! ;D Used it ever since.

Ahem..Prepare for an explanation to the most boring username known to mankind:
So, animals rock. And an underscore in between words is ~~stupid~~ cool. The end. :3
Now wasn't that fantastic?

Post by: Tearless on November 26, 2012, 07:15:24 am

Mine is a shortened version of my regular username I use for everything, TearlessRain. Because FeralHeart did not like the length of it.

As for the meaning, I couldn't pick just one, which is probably why I've been using it consistently for so long (aside from the fact that it's gender-neutral and not related to a fandom, which is nice for long term). The simplest being that it works well as a metaphor for a meteor storm, and I have this thing for all that is space-related. I also love regular rain, so there's that. There are other weird reasons, but... meh, they don't make sense without way too much context. XD

Post by: Feareh on November 26, 2012, 04:36:33 pm

There is no real meaning to my name (Youshallfearme2)
It's just a name I've lived with for 4 years and mostly used it wherever I go.

Post by: kiarasBFF98 on November 28, 2012, 01:55:57 am

I first found Feralheart on a TLK (The Lion King) forum, and so I used the same username. But the meaning behind it is Kiara, as in the daughter of Simba, and the lack of her having a good lion cub playmate for the majority of her youth, and finally, '98, referencing the year The Lion King II: Simba's Pride came out. ^^

Post by: Wolflover87 on November 28, 2012, 02:28:22 am

To be honest, my love for wolves has been going on for maybe 3 years now. So that's how I came with for the name 'Wolflover'. As for 87, I just started combining two random numbers together until I came up with 87. I just assumed 2 years ago that it sounded cool. Well, now, I stare at it and think "An 11 year old came up with this username...I sound like I am still that weird little kid."

Title: Re: What's Behind the Username?
Post by: SharpieGirl01 on November 28, 2012, 01:37:51 pm

The meaning of my username, SharpieGirl01 is because I have a cat named Sharpie and because I'm a girl. The 01 part is just for fun :)

Title: Re: What's Behind the Username?
Post by: SteampunkWolfdog on November 28, 2012, 01:56:43 pm

There's not much behind my username...
SpiritSilverWolf comes from my book character called Spirit, and she's a wolf with a silver coat. And the long, formal version of her name would be Spirit Silverwolf.
And there you have it. XD

Post by: RainbowSerpent on November 28, 2012, 03:23:11 pm

My username, RainbowSerpent, is from mythology. In some myth its also known as Aida Hwedo. It isn't just some cosmic serpent either. It made mountains with its..dung. Some myths say it created the entire world from its dung. It can also be two genders(The red side of it representing a female and the blue side of it representing a male), is said to have carried the creator Mawu(I think that's his name, can't quite remember) etc. Don't believe me? Its all in The Encyclopedia of Magical Creatures. I found this all so amusing I decided to name myself after it. xD

Post by: Nair on November 28, 2012, 04:59:03 pm

My username (Nair) is ~~somehow~~ the shortcut for Nightmare,
don't ask how I came to this ~~awesome~~ crazy cuttin' ;)
I think it was like that: "Ok, the 'n', the 'i', the 'a', the 'r' .. I like them most, so let's
make a name of it ^-^. Niar? Naaw, Nari maybe? NAIR!" - Woohoo.
Not really interesting. ;D

[Btw, is someone playing WolfTeam? Want to make an account,
and friends are always good :)]

Post by: Charlie-101 on November 28, 2012, 08:45:17 pm

Ok as probably most of you know my in-game username is:

Charlie-101

Now there is a long winded explanation behind this because if you look at my forum username I am in fact:

JD

Ok so the reason behind the whole Charlie thing may sound a little odd to any of you who don't know me personally, all right here we go explanation:

I am a HUGE lost fan and my favourite character is a guy called Charlie Pace played by the amazing actor Dominic Monaghan, ok so like the creepy fan girl I am I had a crush on this character due to his funny personality and background and blah blah blah... as you do xD so I decided to call myself Charlie... tada... a side note on that matter is that I have no way intended made my username because of the annoying Charlie the unicorn videos -.- (i'd just like to point that out)

hee hee for those of you still with me and understanding what I have just said, the -101 part stems from my love of the number 101 I have no idea why I personally think it looks good and you can always have a single name that has probably been taken like (Sarah, Joseph, Katie, Conner etc.) but stick the 101 at the end and have the name in your username :D

And the dash is just because I like dashes 8|

So now onto the JD part... hmm well i'll have to be really blunt here, my name initials are J & D hence my nick name what everyone calls me is JD... so tada :D I would've originally had JD as my username however I was a complete nub when I first made my feral heart account and I was younger as well lol

So there you have it the explanation behind the weird Charlie/JD thing I've got going on xD

Hope you guys enjoyed that tale of floofness ^^

JD out :3

Post by: SoulRevenge on November 28, 2012, 09:04:11 pm

My user- "Black Revenge" kind of has a whole story behind it. oAo.

Once in real life, I wanted to get revenge on someone. (Because I'm the opposite of Mr. Goody-Goody in real life. c: Not letting anyone get away with derping with me!) Which, is where the 'Revenge' part of my user comes in. The other part- which is the 'Black' part, came in when I brought in a black, terribly over-sized sweatshirt. Which, I got the other person to zip up over their head, and wonder around at recess. While wondering around, they fell into a ditch, the little kid's playground, ran into a wall, tripped over someone else, and just face-planted somewhere random. c:
Thus; I named this perticuliar kind of 'revenge'- "BlackRevenge". Which, is now my user. o 3o

As for my forum User. .

Milleniuco is a cat, which I sometimes roleplay as a human. (I made him a human appearance and everything B|). Basicly, he's my favourite creation-- Oh yes, and if you might be wondering how the heck I got the name "Milleniuco". His name orginated from the word "Millenium", And call me weird- but at that time, I was into D.Gray-man, a manga series by Katsura Hoshino. One of my favourite characters were Neah. Of course I couldn't make something out the simple name "Neah"-- so I moved onto the "Millenium Earl". And so: Because of a single word in the Earl's name- The name Milleniuco was born. :3

Post by: HeroOfCanton on November 30, 2012, 08:36:32 pm

In-game people think I live in a place called Canton all the time. Couldn't be further from the truth.

The Hero of Canton is actually Jayne Cobb, my favorite character from the now retired sci-fi show "Firefly". Jayne Cobb inadvertently helped the slaves of Canton hence him being hailed a hero, and even having a statue of himself there.
