Main character from The Darkness that Comes Before/The Prince of Nothing series by R. Scott Bakker. Liked the character, liked the name, loved the books.

[–] uhmbah@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 months ago

A half-assed variation of "bah humbug"...

[–] Popsip@pawb.social 2 points 9 months ago

I used to like soda a lot when I was a kid.

I stole it from some old-timey sailors who were shooting the breeze.

It's a drink that makes you feel good and I drink a lot of it

Fellow battletech fan spotted

Trimmed down version of my 'sona's full name "lythlphene" which I came up with kinda randomly in a weird creative mood early in the morning, it's intended to mean something like "earthy creature". I decided that I shouldn't change or tweak it afterwards since I would have just kept overthinking it and never been satisfied

Combined a few numbers that are meaningful to me, turned it into hex, and here we are.

Huge fan of GWAR and always used their lead singers name for online accounts.

[–] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Can’t wait until some internet rando types “GWAR” into a search engine and watches a video… fantastic.

I wanted to upgrade my cringy username and realized it was very hard to choose something, after a while I decided to do the same thing Seba Jun (rest in beats) made for its stage name. 🎶

[–] PopcornPrincess@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

I like popcorn and may or may not be royalty..

[–] SundryTornAsunder@lemmy.today 1 points 9 months ago

A sundry, torn asunder.

[–] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 1 points 9 months ago

It's the name of my sona, as well as the species. "Arx" came from one of my previous usernames which was railroad related (I'm a railfan, and went by RxR). My friends started calling me Rx, which then became Arx. "CyberWolf" comes from my fursona being cyberpunk themed, with cybernetic augmentation. Hence, Cyber Wolf.

[–] Presi300@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

no idea, it's a part of my name and the number 300... yeah

[–] konalt@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Took the windows shortcut "Control-Alt-Delete", removed the delete and trol, and replaced the c with a k

[–] Bahnd@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Minor changes to the random name generator from EvE online and World of Warcrack.

[–] deven@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

I am god. In my language

[–] xc2215x@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

A username I used from other sites.

[–] azulavoir@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 months ago

I wrote several stories about a gardevoir named Azula.

She then later became my fursona, so the name stuck as a replacement for a past username

pewgar is my defacto English name and seemsimandroid was my previous Reddit username but i couldn't put a slash so i put a underscore

[–] kirbowo808@kbin.social 1 points 9 months ago

I just love the Kirby game series cuz it’s really cute but I also love Kirby himself as well at it being a reference to Kirbo from TerminalMontage, who I also equally love as is one of my fave YouTubers.

808 is a reference to the Roland TR-808 drum machine, referencing to many of my favourite electronic/alternative/hip hop musicians that have used it.

Also I love being cringe too so there’s that too xD

[–] XTL@sopuli.xyz 1 points 9 months ago

It's still just random.
