What is the story behind your username?

[SpecSpectacular]

Mine comes from playing breath of fire on the ds, i couldn't fit my whole name so i ended up with spec. Then i started a YouTube channel as a kid and thought spec spectacular was a slick name.

[0of64]

Initially, when I was very young, I made my username cool[real name]64 bc I thought adding "cool" to my name would make me cool and this was around the time when people would usually have numbers in their usernames so I chose "64" because I was so into the N64 at the time. But then, when I decided to make a discord account, I realized my old username was lame as heck so I replace the "cool[real name]" part with "oof" bc I was in my roblox phase at the time. And then the rest is history. Nowadays, the only reason I have a zero as the first "o" in my name is to make my username unique incase some knucklehead decided to use the same username as me

[sauronions]

my previous username was sauronio, a combination of sauron from LotR and the last two letters of my middle name. Then I changed it to sauronions because I thought it was funny that it ended with onions.

[Vaking Voda]

I used to have another internet identity that I just left because it was from when I was young, stupid and embarrassing.

This one, came when I was thinking about changing my name to something different while standing in my kitchen, saw a box of baking soda, and got Vaking Voda.
Then it evolved to Vdos Gaming or smth like that, it was referencing MS-DOS.

Then when I actually did it, I forgot everything but Vaking Voda, and only remembered Vdos Gaming like months after.
Now it's evolved to different short versions like

• Voda

• Vkin

etc.

[dwinterwolf]

I've been going as "December Winterwolf" online since around the end of 2019, but I've run into issues trying to fit that name into a username without abbreviations cause it's more than 15 characters. My username is usually December_W_Wolf, which I came up with for my now-deleted X/Twitter account (it was originally DecemberWinter5 and... eh), but some places don't allow underscores and such, so I decided to use DWinterwolf in some places (think Club Penguin Legacy and Among Us probably). As for how I actually came up with December Winterwolf? In all honesty I just had a plain fursona design, a basic white wolf with some grey spots here and there, and so I named her after the time of year I was born (not entirely accurate but shhh) and the fact that she's a wolf, probably getting subconscious inspiration from Animal Jam's naming system.

Edit: I've now figured out a concrete date for the birth of December Winterwolf. The 22nd of November 2019, the same day my dad surprised us with a cinema trip to see Frozen II after we'd finished our swimming classes.

[MetalJack98]

Metal comes from the Metal found in machines.
Jack comes from audio jacks.
98 is a reference to the NEC PC-9800 series of 16/32 bit Japanese PCs.
