Like most of my usernames, I get them from a baby name site. I typically string three or more together, but for this name I just thought it would be more simple to use only two.

It's nothing exciting, I figure it's easier to just do that.

Mine's probably self explanatory! I'm not really sure as to why i picked it...Probably because it's quite a bold star, and i hoped to gain some boldness over my previous lurking tendencies? I don't think it worked very well though . I think if i remember rightly, my first choice was Moon but someone had already claimed it.

My user name is base off a oc character I made for a Sailor Moon rp. I use my oc's sailor scout name as my user name.

My username is from one of the highest rank one can get in the Navy. It's a four-star ranking, and the only higher things are special ranks. ...Of course my avatar is more pirate-based than Navy... Heh.

My aunt gave me a car when I was sixteen. I was a 1969 Karmann Ghia (which makes it about fifteen years older than me). Because it was a classic car, it was made out of steel, not plastic. So I named it Steel Magnolias. So it's nickname steel+mag plus the last part of the style of car, ghia, worked well together. It's never taken on any new website I join and is unique to me. :)

I always join avatar sites then ignore them leaving me stuck in a constant state of "newb." .3. It's a vicious cycle.

The short version is that it's just the handle I like using for forum websites.

I originally came up with it because I wanted to change my Gaia username to something that sounded cooler than my old username there, which was "Valkyrie Profile Lover."

For a while, years ago, I was DragonSinger... But then I was joining a site, and happened to be reading Beowulf-- because I'm weird and read Anglo-Saxon poetry for fun-- and decided to turn it to WyrmSkald... only I was also going through a phase where I liked 'y', so I became Wyrmskyld-- Dragon Shield.

Mine comes from the character Midorikawa Ryuuji from the anime Inazuma Eleven. Originally I changed to it on another site after seeing a GIF from the anime with Midorikawa saying "Call me Midorikawa from now on" and since then it has become my constant username for like everything.

My username is based on a Chinese character 晨 which can mean morning but is also used as a given name. Funnily enough Chen is a fairly common Chinese surname too...

I made mine up. I wanted it to be similar to my other handle nickname, Wavi. I looked at the alphabet and decided that Xavi sounded the best (it was either Xavi, Lavi, or Zavi; I liked the look and sound of Xavi so I picked that). I then wanted to add more letters behind it. I tried a whole bunch of combinations. Xavirne finally surfaced and I have loved it ever since.

The big question I'm always asked is how to pronounce it. Z - ave (like the beginning of average) -rin (like the name). That's how I say it. But I think it's easier to go by Xav (Z-ave) or Xavi (Z-ah-V).

Mika is the name of the main character from my favorite manga series, Red Angel. I suppose I'm not as into the series as I was back in high school, but I always identified a bit with her and admired her for her elegance and grace. (And I'm super-envious of her wardrobe as well. xP)

Rose is just my middle name and the name that I most commonly go by these days; I don't remember why I decided to combine the two names, but I thought they sounded nice together while I was trying to come up with a new username a few years back.

When I first joined the site, I wanted to come up with something simple, witty, sound almost like a real name but have it not be. So, it was between Clara Nette and Clair Voyant. I finally went with Clair Voyant because I could spell it like the word clairvoyant and Clara Nette only sounds like clarinet.

My name was first "iRandall" because Randall (call me Randy) is my real first name. Then I became HTML because back then I wanted to become a web designer. Now it's been Moogle for a while because they're my favorite race from the Final Fantasy series.

I actually don't know where my username came from.. I guess I jumped on the bandwagon of using " `" in 2007 when everyone else was doing it and Foam seemed to be something pretty unique and whatnot. xD

I was signing up for another site, and I was like "Oh boy Nero from Devil May Cry is a pretty cool guy" so I tried it, but it was taken, then I just tried to put things on the end to make it sound catchy. So Nerosity it was!
