[–] mrchampion@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Years ago, when I was around 13-14, I wanted a "cool" sounding username, since I was also sick of coming up with usernames for websites. I did some thinking, and came up with "Mr.Champion". Used it ever since.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

WoW forums name. (Night Shift represent!)

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Cool hobby from my past ….. plus for whatever reason lemmy didn’t like my generated username and I gave up

Wanted to be crass and nerdy, simultaneously.

[–] MildlyIncorrect@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I sometimes say things that may not be 100% correct. I’m only human.

I just hate Disney

[–] zowka@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It started off on Discord as a joke I no longer remember the context of, and was originally just "PopeJoeI (as in Pope Joe the First)" , and then spread to other areas, like the site formerly known as Twitter.

Then Discord added the crowns to admins and it then became "PopeKingJoe" and that's that.

I have many thoughts

[–] LovingCivilian@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

My name is the spell that I can cast in real life. Not as good as a real Muscle Wizard's, but it's something

[–] CaptainUndebridge@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Everyone gets excited whenever I board a ship

[–] NakariLexfortaine@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Nakari has "existed" since I was a teenager. Started off as a character I used in writing as an outlet, but slowly the name also became a handle for me. Hell, I guess an entire "presence" since it's my go-to for most sites.

Lexfortaine came around because I wanted something vaguely "proper" sounded in a D&D game, and I never actually got around to giving the character Nakari a "canon" last name. It worked well enough for an asspull, and has just been tracked on ever since. Grown to like it, actually. Feels more like a proper name.

"All the things that used to be inside of me, now they're outside... But the inside of me is empty."

[–] victron@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Old internet nickname, back in the MSN Messenger days.

[–] banneryear1868@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Would be a very long comment but it's a reference Black Kettle's betrayal and murder by General Custer.

[–] Psyblader@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

I like Gallade.
