Well, a few years back I needed a username and I chose soincblast5 (yes spelled that way on purpose) and after wanted to make a youtube account i needed a better name, I liked the blast5 part but I wanted to something that had the same ring to it, I chose Solar, and after I joined Cutstuff and name changes were not allowed I found out Solar spelled backwards was Ralos, and I use a variation on that from now on.

My Cutstuff name came from my old youtube name, which I came up with about... 5 or 6 years ago?
My in-game name (Turbodude) came from my days of the IAM community on youtube (someone else from aforementioned community is a well known person here, hehe) when I was IMMATURBOMAN.

I got my name from Yellow Devil. I used to be supermario6429 (original name is original >->). When I used to play on roboenza servers I used to switch my weapons like crazy. Yellow Devil saw how I always did this and he said I was Raving. He created the Raveman part. I used super because of Mario. AND THAT IS HOW I GOT MY NAME!!! END THE!!!

And then the spriting community there went to hell.

Well, my name origins goes back to my days in the world of webcomics, namely, the spriting community in Smackjeeves. I had started to make some Kirby-related comics, but hadn't released them to the internet (I had large amount of unreleased comics, and they probably aren't worth releasing anyway). Eventually, I manned up and went to post the comics. Of course, were I to create a webcomic on the site, I needed an account and a user name.

Now, around that time I had a personal character of sorts named Shade (who's now replaced by the guy in my avatar), a floating shadow wearing a hood (a super original name to go with a super original design). In one of my older unreleased comics, I had an author avatar (think the author from Bob and George but 83% more Mary Sue-esque) in the form of a Shy Guy in gray robes wearing a top hat, aptly named Author Guy...Later down the comic's track, it got shortened to Guy.

And thus, to create my username, I combined the two names. Shade Guy...Has a nice ring to it, doesn't it? It's okay, I don't think so either.

For anyone who is a stalker interested in looking further into the world of Shade Guy, my comics are probably still on there somewhere...Don't expect A-material though.

    • My Youtube (BlueBrawl)
Brb, changing my in-game name to Surnoman.
« Reply #156 on: December 04, 2011, 09:37:50 AM »
I blame youtube for my uncreative username. I used to have youtube accounts called "surnoman" and something else, but I would forget the passwords to those accounts. I was 13 at the time, so shut up >.>
Anyways, here I was trying to think of a new username again. I can definitely assure you where I got the first part of my name. It's because blue is my favorite color in the entire world. Where I would get "brawl" from is kind of a mystery, but I think it had to do with how feisty I was as a kid. Or maybe, it came from how I enjoyed fighting games like Mortal Kombat a lot. Or maybe, it came wanting another word in my name that started with "b". I forgot the literary term, but I think that would describe wanting to add "brawl" to "blue". And so, a new youtube account was born.

As well as my name's meaning, I guess I sort of picked "LlamaHombre" because of how silly it sounded when I first said it aloud.

It's no longer silly now that I know a lot more spanish, but still.

Unexpected XD

My first message board username was "the dave". However, the next board I signed up for, the name was taken. I then used "daverids". However, that name's rather... Awkward. Next, I used "Daverid". When that was taken, I used "Daveris". Daveris is now my personal favorite :D

Name history, eh?

I got my name when I was trying to come up for the last name of a chacter for a story that I write with my gf.  I looked in the dictionary and Mashed the words Omni and Zoa together cuz I liked how it turned out.  and then its pretty much stuck on me.

I was really into Kingdom Hearts at the time (not that I'm not now), and I found I liked all the connotations of the word 'Kingdom.' I split it into 'King Dumb' for multiple reasons. It made the name an actual person, and the 'Dumb' made it funny and induced periodic loling when people would say the name aloud and understand it. The colors also have reason; 'King' is purple, as this is the traditional color of royalty, and 'Dumb' is blue because blue is my favorite color.

'Aurora' is the name of a character I created. In the books which I am in the gradual process of writing, Aurora is one of two characters who is alive throughout the entire plot  (which lasts a duration of about 2000 years in its current form), and the only one who remains alive for this time in the 'material' world (the world as we know it). He has an affinity for the natural entropy and energy of life, which inspired the name's colors which I deem 'vibrant.'

The other two names I use often are General Zelgius and The Black Knight, which, as many probably know, refer to the same character, who appeared in both Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. The character's motives aren't revealed until his death in the endgame of the latter of the aforementioned title, and it suited his purposes to lead two lives: one as a renowned militaryman, earl, and, later, General of the powerful Begnion Central Empire of the Holy Begnion Empire, and the other as The Black Knight, the strongest of the Four Riders of Begnion's 'rival' nation Daein and 'loyal' servant to Mad King Ashnard of Daein in Path of Radiance. Ultimately, the reason behind Zelgius' double life was twofold: his loyalty to his secret master (and overall mastermind of the conflicts of both games) Sephiran, and his desire to become the most powerful swordsman in the world (specifically to better his master, whose skills were passed down to son and main protagonist Ike).

*readys to tell name history*

i used to play runescape, which my friend helped me make this name. then i started using RIP-A-NEW1, inspired by ratchet&clank. then we go to my newest name, tails doll.exe. this is after watching youtube and playing alot of mmbn. then we go to my last three names, mr. enderman, cuddle pie, and gizmo. cuddle pie came from an episode of fairly odd parents. gizmo is not from smash's fanmade, but the fact that i am great with electronics. and mr. enderman is obvious.

My name was originally Rockmanzx730, i shortened it to Rockie730, then the thought of bacon popped into my head (maybe due to its deliciousness, EpicMealTime, and probably because of that guys named bacon who used to host mm8bdm servers, i remember getting confused for him when he stopped putting up servers .-.)

also.

"Llama Hombre" is spanish for Flame Man, actually.

i thought 'llama' was 'call' in spanish, (i am hispanic) then again every country speaks spanish differently and i don't know some of my spanish
