my username has nothing to do with my real name
I introduced a friend of mine to a band called flyleaf,and i had him listen my favourite song wich is "Cassie", so everytime he listened to that song, he thought of me
that how i got stuck with that name...i just tried to make it more unique to be able to use it everywhere

My username is ColorfulDetonation because I like the band My Chemical Romance, and my Fabulous Killjoy name is Colorful Detonation. I chose that name for my character because I LOVE art and being bright and colorful. Like an explosion of colorfulness xD

I like wolves, I like darkness. Put them together.
Thing is, "ShadowWolf" looks really awkward with two w's in a row, so I knocked the w off of shadow and now I use it or ShadoWolf0913 (if ShadoWolf is taken) on pretty much everything. The 0913 is my friend's birthday, September 13. I would have done my own birthday, but it's November 11 which would be 1111, so it's kinda boring.
Thanks to my choice of a username, I now have the nickname "Shado" with my friends.

It might of been the random band name generator on Guitar Hero World Tour.
It just kind of stuck with me, I guess.

Originally hushed is a gamer tag. Before husheddispatch i was Grawr]RH[. i got grawr from a girl i had been crushing on and rh was a clan tag i put on during my time playing starcraft one. i carried it till i was playing americas army 3 and my mic broke. then i wanted to have a new name anyways because grawr was through my teen years and rather immature in reputation. i wanted to have something that had multiple meanings. i was good at AA3 when it came to sneaking and eliminating the enemy. silentassassin and all the usual names were taken. so i thought about words meaning roughly the same thing that are rarely used. Hushed Dispatch. Silent connection to the end.

by Skinwalker
Mine is from my slight (by slight I mean VERY slight) native american ancestors. A Skin-walker is a witch that can transform into any animal if it is wearing its pelt. Its common in Navajo lore. The cool thing about skin-walkers is they believed that they could steal another humans skin by staring deep into their eyes. I found them fascinating so I took out the dash and made it my username.

Well, in this cult (which is basically a forum group, but on VampireFreaks they're called cults). In the cult PostF*ckers, we put a star emote next to the name of verified members in their user title.
Like this
The star emote looks like this
I recently became an admin of that cult, and I was updating members user titles who posted in the verification thread, and thought to myself: man this is basically a starception..

Mine's simple - it's the Irish Gaelic spelling of my real name. It means 'warrior' and my last name (also Irish) means 'ocean.'
Pato Banton has a song called "Ocean Warrior" and I love it.
My mom must've known something when she chose my name (wouldn't take any argument from my dad). I'm a saltwater addict: surf, sail, fish, you name it. Also an avid conservationist, especially regarding our oceans & shores.

Mine's changed a bit... You see Rose is my real name,
, it's a lot easier to introduce myself to people at shows if they already know my name.

It's so interesting to read these little tidbits, I always wonder what the stories are behind people's usernames!
