There are many users that have weird names that you almost want to ask them: "Hey! why you chose it?" In this topic you can explain what's the meaning of your username and/or why you chose it, in case you want to say it.

For example, Byllant is an alteration of the english word Brilliant, instead of using the spanish word Brillante. But that's not the only reason I chose it. Byllant is actually the name of a character I created whose complete name is Byllant Etnos Zik-Adus.

Say whatever you want, just like "I chose it because blah blah blah...", "It's a metaphor that means blah blah blah..." or "LOL was the first thing I thought".

And be sure to vote in the poll above, if you want.

EDIT: I added a new rule in this topic. You all know Hakker is responsible for username changing, as that is possible, I'm sort confused when I see other users I practically know but with a different username, so, well, explain and show your former usernames, and explain its "etymology" too.

As about me, I haven't change my usernames in my stance in these forums, but if I wanted to change my username, I would choose one of the following (note all but one, the last listed, are related to my character Byllant):

  • Wylldenick: Comes from the name of my fictional alien race (Byllant is a descendant of this).
  • Byll the Wyll: A short mix between Byllant and Wylldenick.
  • Breiteden or simplyBreite: The name of Byllant's older brother. His name is an alteration of the word Brute.
  • Blankyder or simply Blank: The name of Byllant's mortal arch-enemy.
  • Bydall: The name of Byllant's beloved son.
  • Divaztid: The name of a mystical light dragon.

Live in harmony. :D

Yes but it's currently locked before I could post. Besides why it was locked?

Well as I was on your little list, I might as well say (for what I think is the third time now) how I got to the name Tiddlywinks.
When I first joined the forum, my name was Tid. Tid is my nickname in real life, and is used so frequently that a couple of people in my class don't even know my real name. Seriously, even my teachers call me Tid. Anyway, several months after joining the forum, I changed my name to Kyaputen Tid, because Kyaputen Fyarukon means Captain Falcon in Japanese, and Capt. F was my favorite SSB character for a short time. More recently, I changed my name to Tiddlywinks, because I'm trying to incooperate the word Tid into all my names, and Tiddlywinks is the name of a board game in which the objective is to flick little tokens into a bucket.
As for TheSilenceOfNoOne, it's a parody of a user on another forum called TheVoiceOfEveryone.
Try saying Xaminor outloud. It sounds like the word examiner. It's just a cooler looking way of writing that word.
Cleod9 IS a pun on Cloud Nine, and it's spelt Cleod instead of Cloud because his last name is Mcleod. I dunno about the other ones.

The book "Give a Boy a Gun" by Gary Paulson (Not sure about that last name's spelling).

The book is about a school shooting done by two kids. They, along with two friends of theres, have several chatbox convos throughout the book. TerminX is the SN of the lead shooter, Gary. Or hell, it coulda been Brendon. I haven't read that book in ages lololol
