My name (Diamond) mostly came from my username. I used to be more active talking on Discord, so a lot of my friends would call me based on my username. It was weird at first, but I got used to it! Some people found it surprising, but the reactions aren't too bad.
that’s really cool, diamond is actually sick as fuck lol. a spring number of people have similar stories here, with their name originating as a gamer tag- really nice connection!
