[Sinitron]

i started using variants of "sinister" around 2004

2006-2007 i ripped off "megatron" which is a portmanteau of megaton and electron

in this case it's "sinister electronics" which i've used several variants of

another transformers-related moniker is "spinister" (a lesser-known targetmaster from late G1)

more recently i've taken to using some other names elsewhere to avoid certain associations

an example being my steam display name "DDOS IN DOS" which is along the same lines as of some of my alternates

just words and phrases put together that have double meanings or rhyme

one of my favorite names that never caught on though were ZeroCologne

and Damper Spoon Whippen will always hold a place in my heart as well

Back when I still fancied the idea of acting, I decided to come up with some sort of stage name. I really liked Cher's name, so I decided on 'Lovette Cher', which was twice as French, twice as 'love', and many times worse.
I don't like Cher, but I love French, so it seemed even to me.

LovetteCher was way too fucking much to type more than three or four times (also, middle-of-the-word caps!), so I shortened it to lovey and use this whenever possible.



I also use 'zad' a lot, a shortening of Zadorae Maeron, something the Tibia Name Generator spewed out many years ago.

[hydroperoxide]

is chemistry still cool or

[Flash]

peroxides are cool and relatively easy to name!

[Greenkitten]

Used to be my first initial, underscore then my last name.
Then Lasse asked me to join the Kitty Krew and a bunch of them had kitten names, then I was trying to think of one for ages and looked outside and saw all the plants were green so I chose Green.
Then when NG had username changes the guy who had Magyar changed so I took it to replace my old old name and had Greenkitten as an alt.

I used Magyar on a few other sites as well (such as this) but I got annoyed at people pronouncing it wrong and Hungarians going "Oh my god another Hungarian" So I've been trying to change them over to Greenkitten

[W.A.C.]

Wow, I'm surprised so many people here had their usernames originate from their initials as well. o_O I originally came up with my username for a Sonic sprite comic I made in 2003 that never went publicly online. The character was a modified version of the Tails sprites from Sonic Advance and it looked generic as fuck. The character was blue, wore a red shirt, wore black pants, and for some fucking reason, I had the character wear green shoes. Two years later, I made a different version in 2005 that looked less shitty.



Then later that year, I discovered furries and ditched my character once I found out it some people thought I was a furry because I hated furries at the time. (Ironically, many years later, one of my best friends is a furry.) While my fan character was scrapped long ago, I'll never ditch my username. I use it on any site that allows me to use periods. My alternative variations are W-A-C, WAC, wac, WAC89, and wac89. Hmm... WAC89 is my initials and the year I was born. >_> I'm so unoriginal with usernames.

Edit-

Worth mentioning I use FriedCrickets for PSN and YouTube, and I hate that username nowadays.

[ZennyPLUS]

My name derives from the currency of a lot of Rockman games, which is zenny. The PLUS was added simply because it sound nifty and was easy to remember.

[Sheepy]

It's also the name of the currency in the Dragon Ball universe~
