Forum:Origin of your username

So sometimes I'll see a user and I'll be like: Hmm, I wonder where their username came from. Some may be based on a game, some may variations of their real names, some could be random, who knows? With this in mind, I decided to create a forum thread where everyone is invited to present a description of how they conjured up their username. 20:45, August 10, 2012 (UTC)

Post your description here

 * GeorgieGibbons: I may as well go first. It's basically my real name except for the fact that none of my friends actually call me Georgie anymore. As for the all-caps which is permanently part of my username...basically when I first started using this I had an issue with my keyboard and I didn't realise I had the caps lock on, meaning I was stuck with this. I kind of adopted it across the whole of Wikia and never bothered to get that fixed, although it's probably impossible. However I don't use the all-caps variation on IRC, with the exception of my cloak. Also I couldn't think of anything imaginative... 20:45, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * DanPin: Well, the "Dan" part is a section of my first name and the "Pin" part is a section of my surname. I don't know how the heck I came up with it, but it just sounded right in my ears. In some places I put a "The" behind, either because it was already taken somewhere or because it just looks cool. :3 20:54, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * Starmoonie: My username was actually suppose to be "GeminiStar" but I had to change it because it didn't feel right to me. It was actually based on my love for Astrology and anything that was "Space" related. I just knew Starmoon was an okay username but then added the "IE" on the end to be more creative some how.Star -Talk 21:16, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * LostInRiverview: My username was created due to a misunderstanding about Wikia registration. I created my username in order to fit in with The Sims Wiki, since this was the first Wikia wiki that I contributed to. After the fact I was convinced to start watching Lost so the 'Lost' part of my name has its own (unintended) meaning as well. The shortened version of my username - LiR - is common on the IRC and even in short-hand discussions on-wiki, and it has become my go-to username for other websites as well. --  LiR speak ~ read 21:17, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
