How did you come up with your Username?
Is your name a puzzle meant to troll the sentient beings above and beyond the universe, or maybe it's just a silly nickname your friends gave you? What story did your username entail, big or small. Did you have any previous names?
For a while, ever since I was 13, my main name I used on games or other forums, I would use Kitoko or Kitokofox (Some of them, I still do) This is because it was the name of a main character for a story I made, about a band of mystical foxen wandering through nature to find their shadow. (Though, I've long lost the major details of the story) The name was picked a while ago over an admittedly dumb mishmash of japanese wording of "angel" and "boy" because that's basically what he was, a very nice boy, always willing to help someone in need. (He's the main protagonist)
Though, I also found out that name also meant "Beautiful" in native African languages, and a lot of people kept thinking I was a girl. So, I thought up of a new name on the fly, and thought I wanted a nae representing Tails from the Sonic series, but nothing seriously canon or overused. I remembered my favourite line from Sonic Adventure 2: Battle where Tails says "How did you know this was a fake emerald?" where Dr. Robotnik replies "Because you just told me, fox boy" And that name stuck. Though, later on, there was someone in the SRB2 community who had that name already in the past, which was ironic since I spent hours trying to get something unique. But, yeah, that name stuck, and that's how I got FoxBoy. Despite the name, it's in no way related to the furry fandom, though I am very well aware of said fandom and have visited it in the past (Though very briefly, I've seen weird people) And sometimes like to joke around and say I am.

Sometimes you have to stop and smell the roses you know. It's part of being natural, everything has a tone of beauty to it however you see fit.

Re: How did you come up with your Username?
I was one day on the back of my uncle's motorcycle, and my mom said that I looked like a lollipop with that large helmet on. Yeah.
In-game I use the name Zelaven now, which was just something I made up, initially for my Warframe account.

Mine is weird, people were asking what the hell does it mean. It's not that i'm "Pal of Zebra or Zerber". ZEBER is a part of the Zeberdee character from the movie "Football Factory". PAL is simply because I live in PAL region lol.
Originally name was zeberpal_98, maybe somebody remember, 98 is not my year of birth. 1998, it's when my favorite game at the time GTA:LibertyCityStories game took place. heh.

Re: How did you come up with your Username?
My actual name is Pedro (Portuguese for Peter), and at the time I was creating a new nickname for myself Pedobear was around. So I just went with it. For some time I used the nick "Pedrobear", the mexican Pedo (also Pedobear's cousin). Stupid, but it works, and I like to joke around with people in-game. NOT an actual pedo though u.u
I am the PEDO in the darkness. I am the (wallpaper) BEAR of the walls. PEDOBEAR IS MY NAME!

I just grabbed my favorite Transformer, Soundwave and made it my username. There are a lot of Soundwaves around in the internet though (i once got mistaken with a Soundwave04 who aparentely uploaded doom mod videos long ago.)

Always have one guy say "RAGEQUIT!" after someone leaves. Decided to just name myself after that guy's gimmick
I really love how welcoming and friendly the Zandronum community is?
