Ask Lemmy

I used to see the F1 in the so called boring years.

I was playing some crappy F2P MMO (Perfect World, maybe?) and I made a warrior of some werewolf race. Just played with random wolf-related combinations and settled on this. Quit after two days and the username carried on for probably 15 years now.

I don't even really know all that much about Stalin. I just pulled it out of my ass.

It's related to my first name. But some letters removed and others rearranged.

School nickname

In Portuguese "zero hora" is the midnight shift, people started making jokes when I slept in class and the name got stuck.

I couldn't think of a name but I wanted an account. Every time I tried to think of something, I hit a mental block. "I don't want to"

I love frogs and was hungry when I made my account.

I am terrible at names

The name i used before was "youtuber", which i "came up with" when creating my youtube account

This is the first name that wasnt already taken in Minecraft so i kept it

Just an old meme.

My page name, ShinigamiOokamiRyuu, is an amalgamation of different anime characters from anime whose characters I have cosplayed as.

My nickname (the thing that says "Call me Lenny/Leni") is based on one of my nickname preferences. I have quite a few, my birth name being Valentina, which allows for a lot of nicknames (including Leni, which is one of the shorthands for Valentina, though Tina is the most popular) that get changed around depending on who I communicate with.

Tenno, wake up. It's time to put on the silly norg fish mask from cetus and make it look good.

i like the swapnote girl so i borrowed her name

I had a job doing QA where I had to create user accounts. Some Guy was one of the three that I created every day.

Depending on what your lemmy app/ui shows, it's either a Guild Navigator or a Facedancer.

I made this account shortly after watching Jackass 4. One of the new guys brings his dad on, this guy served time and did not look like he was one to fuck with. They put his head in a fishbowl with a tarantula and he instantly went into full bitch mode. That man's name was Dark Shark.

It’s like 15 years old from back when I used to PVP in EVE online. Vaguely weird to pronounce and towards the middle of the alphabet so I don’t get primaried

I'm fatigued in more ways than one and people joke that I'm fae because I'm allergic to metal.

I was making a silly joke on Reddit...

What about you pip? My first thought was the main character of Kid Icarus.

I’m chaotic and I like cookies, nothing more to it!

Mine comes from the intro to The Fresh Prince of Bel Air

Bernards letter

I asked Dr GPT for a list of nouns and adjectives with a particular theme and picked some I liked and combined them. I do the same process for all my digital identities.

Kona + Loki + accidentally changing an O to an A = Kolanaki

And then it turns out, it's also the name of a place in Greece.

Guess.

Star Wars Galaxies I was on a red wine kick at the time and had found Ecco Domani to be a good low priced red. I meeded a character name for SWG so I looked up "to seize" in Italian to make "seize tomorrow".

It's actually "squeeze tomorrow" or "tighten tomorrow" and should have been "cogliere il domani" which is cooler. But c'est la vie, or questa è la vita.

I enjoyed The Talos Principle. And the messages in that world seemed about as real as you guys. I mean that in an endearing way

I mashed the keyboard.

Every time I go to make a new username I just choose the first 2 words that come to mind

The pinnacle of Australian culture

"Behold, a token effort" sick line dropped by best boy linhardt in fire emblem warriors three hopes

My display name is probably from the most mysterious song on the internet

Minecraft username I coined at the age of 8. The name speaks for itself.
