I am the pretty Guardian in a sailor suit who fights for love and justice!!!

[–] BlackPenguins@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I like penguins and 90s nostalgia. It's a Legends of the Hidden Temple fake team name.

Could I have gone for the alliteration? Perhaps. But Purple Parrots already existed. And I don't like pink.

Huge fan of GWAR and always used their lead singers name for online accounts.

[–] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Can’t wait until some internet rando types “GWAR” into a search engine and watches a video… fantastic.

[–] Oderus@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Easily my favourite band. Seen them in concert many times and it never gets old.

RIP Brockie

I like popcorn and may or may not be royalty..

[–] Drusas@kbin.social 2 points 9 months ago

Main character from The Darkness that Comes Before/The Prince of Nothing series by R. Scott Bakker. Liked the character, liked the name, loved the books.

[–] 0x30507DE@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Combined a few numbers that are meaningful to me, turned it into hex, and here we are.

[–] Popsip@pawb.social 2 points 9 months ago

I used to like soda a lot when I was a kid.

I stole it from some old-timey sailors who were shooting the breeze.

[–] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 9 months ago

my dad came up with it on his own and I adopted it

[–] CharlesReed@kbin.social 2 points 9 months ago

I just really like the character.

Makes sense

[–] havokdj@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Fellow battletech fan spotted

[–] lyth@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago

Trimmed down version of my 'sona's full name "lythlphene" which I came up with kinda randomly in a weird creative mood early in the morning, it's intended to mean something like "earthy creature". I decided that I shouldn't change or tweak it afterwards since I would have just kept overthinking it and never been satisfied

[–] JustEnoughDucks@feddit.nl 2 points 9 months ago

It's a drink that makes you feel good and I drink a lot of it

[–] RGB3x3@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

I learned how to solve a Rubik's cube and figured I could make a username out of it.

Plus, it doubles as a reference to a pixel on a screen and I'm a security engineer, so... It kinda works both ways.

[–] metaStatic@kbin.social 2 points 9 months ago

wanted a zerg sounding name when I started playing SC2 and then mained terran instead

[–] uhmbah@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 months ago

A half-assed variation of "bah humbug"...

[–] hasecilu@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago

I wanted to upgrade my cringy username and realized it was very hard to choose something, after a while I decided to do the same thing Seba Jun (rest in beats) made for its stage name. 🎶

[–] Brewchin@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

As with all my online accounts:

  • Visit a name generator website.
  • Find one that doesn't suck.
  • Check if it's available.
  • Here we are.

And each has a different email address. I hope adtech loves me. 😁

[–] Bahnd@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Minor changes to the random name generator from EvE online and World of Warcrack.

pewgar is my defacto English name and seemsimandroid was my previous Reddit username but i couldn't put a slash so i put a underscore

[–] deven@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

I am god. In my language

[–] azulavoir@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 months ago

I wrote several stories about a gardevoir named Azula.

She then later became my fursona, so the name stuck as a replacement for a past username

[–] IzNoGud78@feddit.it 1 points 9 months ago

Mine is inspired by a comic book character I actually got to know through a video game I had tried on my first PC several years ago now.

[–] XTL@sopuli.xyz 1 points 9 months ago

It's still just random.

[–] csm10495@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 months ago

My dad didn't know my birthday.
