(I searched, but came up with no results.)I always wonder why people choose certain usernames. What was the meaning behind them? Some of them are easy, like "Vinny Valentine" for example. It's obviously based on Vinny's love for the FF7 character. Others are simple. So what does your username mean? A lyric from a song? A favorite character?
Because I have a speech impediment as the result of a gunshot to the neck. I was in the U.S, Army Infantry and was shot by a hostile local with an AK-47 while in Iraq. (I was just grazed, though. But it was a hollow point!) My nerves and larynx are damaged and I have a mild stutter. I used to be horrendously bad, but now, with years of radical speech therapy, its noticeable, but not extreme.
Um... Let me copy and patse first....
'HPaddict' If I need to explain this one, that's really sad. I changed from this to something else because people kept mixing me up with 'HPfanatic'. It was my original username.
'raenef v' and 'raenef' we from when I was really into this manwa entitled "Demon Diary". Raenef, a blue-haired demon lord, is actually what I call my friend.
'keiji' is a Japanese name meaning something along the lines of confused. I had been drawing a character called Keiji, and he became me RP alias.
'riku harada'/'riku-chan' I got into the D.N.Angel faze and liked Riku (from that series) a lot. Then I switched back to it from 'sanshine-eien'.
'sanshain-eien' I had just watched "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind' and that's the Japanese translation for eternal sunshine.
'daisuke' Chosen for the same reason as the Riku ones, he's the main character.
'faerie' Random/for a signature contest (I used Narnia).
'takuto' A shinigami from "Fullmoon Wo Sagashite".
'Gaia' Gaia Online, I didn't want to be Takuto.
'ShinobiRikari' My current username was inspired by my friends. It was winter and I was walking around with my scarf up past my nose. When I walked into the Anime Club meeting they said i looked like a shinobi...
