Origin of Your Username?

Well my original VMK name was just a random generated one, called RazzleDizzyEffect.
and my first character on MyVMK was zombiebuttz just because that's a username i use for most of my online game accounts. I picked that name because I like zombies.. and the buttz part just came from randomness, honestly. I don't even know how I thought of it. xD
But I decided to make a new account called NightElf because I felt like I needed a change, and I picked that because I love World of Warcraft, and Night Elves.

I'm really glad this was posted! A lot of people have used the name "Nutty" against me as like an insult (which is hilarious once you hear the story):
So I was signing up for some other website long ago and I used to just use a series of numbers as my username. But that's when the website got annoying like so many others and asked for a capital letter and a lowercase. I didn't want to use my name or anything but the website offered a random word generator and the first word was Nutty. Easy enough to remember so I used that as my username and it stuck.

I was Clarity in the original game. I think I wanted a word that sounded like a name. When I signed up for MyVMK, the username was already taken, but happily for me, the character name was available. (For some reason, the name Clarity was already taken on this forum too, by someone who has never posted.)
I noticed after I joined MyVMK that people who talked to me kept quoting some song I'd never heard before. I'm still in my mid-twenties, but I am already an old fogie who doesn't keep up with popular music, so this was confusing for me. I had to go look up the song. So I didn't name myself after that song, since I'd never heard of it and I had the name Clarity on VMK long before the song existed.

My two original titles on VMK: Cat-Luvver and JJason
Cat-Luvver was my first one. In 2005 when I had just turned 11... My brother thought it up and made the account for me. I'm a huge cat lover. I think "Cat-Lover" was taken so he spelt it sickeningly like that XD People took to calling me "cat" for short.
JJason.... Was my second attempt at a username. I wanted to cease being known as "cat" because 12 year old me found this immensely irritating. My real name is "Jason" and I wanted to use that but it was taken. So I added a J. Unfortunately, then I became known forever as "JJ" on that username.... *facepalm*
Thankfully Jason was available here. If it hadn't been I would've chosen "Adjacent" since that's my nickname off VMK.

my original vmk username was silly.lily. because my dog's name was lily and i was obsessed with the name, and silly rhymed. then later, vmk staff made me change it because they thought i would impersonate host_lily or something so i changed it to SillyAlly, because Ally was how i spelled my name back then.
now it's Snaps, which is a nickname from the story, The Life and Times.

I came up with dudescl on day 1 of original vmk, and Im not too sure what my 11-year-old self was thinking. SCL is my initials, however why I chose the adjective dude at the front is a mystery. My created-in-park character in vmk was scldude. People often are confused with how to pronounce dudescl (for clarification, its "dude s-c-l", non dude-skull or dude-sci) and I usually am just called dude. I would rather have a more creative name now, but i was the dude in vmk, so i am the dude in myvmk as well.
I used my real name because it's unique, or at least that's what numerous people have told me. All you have to do is change the e to an a, so I'm not sure why people like it xD But then again I've grown to like it a lot myself. I wasn't too fond of it for a while mainly because people mispronounce it all the time, but I'm used to it now haha. I kind of have to be since even one of the assistant principles from my high school mispronounced it at graduation...
Also, I couldn't think of any other name to use. My username on VMK was DizNicola, so I figured people would still recognize me if I kept it almost the same.
