Okay so I have been wanting to make this thread for quite some time. Why did everyone pick the name they did? That is the question:p
For me it was by searching google for elf (or maybe it was anime name don't remember) names I think it was. I went to many generators and in the end I found this site that gave me the name StarWind. I found it interesting so I used it ahhahah
P.S. I don't know if this thread or something like it exists already so please don't shoot me if it already does. :D

We don't shoot people around here, we just turn them over to Dyne for....lol
I wasn't that familiar with anime or Japanese names that I could identify with, easily. And my mentors insisted that I needed a screen name (I didn't even know what that was!).
So I became frank and have remained frank for these 5 and 1/2 years.
There is one member who is allowed to call me frank~ish, but only her.
Sometimes people automatically follow proper English form for proper nouns and call me Frank. I am not that person. I am frank.
GG, however, has a whole list of names for me. :P

Wait so is your name truly frank?
and i wonder if GG will start calling you fred also hahaha
I actually post about the origin of my nickname in my forum blog xD i will copy paste~
Why is my nickname "Fuu"?
Actually it's an interesting story, very short, but cool anyway... ahm...
Do you know the band called Foo Fighters?
All my life i thought it was written "Fuu Fighters" xD and when my friends realize that they start making fun of me and calling me "Fuu Fighter! Fuu Fighter!" And i got that silly nickname...
and when i enter this forum i wanted a kinda japanese name and... Fuu was the one ;D

Yes, my name is truly frank.
And there is some imposter running around that claims my titles in civilian life who is called Frank.
Please don't give GG any more ideas than he already has. LOL

I know him as frank, but, I would like to random another guess. But, I'll not say.
Anywaays...Hara Michiyo... well, it was probably about 6 or more years ago I seen this thing on the computer which was 'find out what your name is in Japanese'. It was a pretty rubbish random thing, I happened to be looking at a randomator thing that told you your name as a ned name. Anyway, I didn't know I was into anything Japanese at that point but I remember seeing this name turn up for me, obviously not an exact traslation, but I remember being mesmerised by it as it gave me the Kanji aswell and the name just stuck in my head ever since.
And, for some reason my ned name was something to do with Tetley, so AK called me Tetley for a while, which was not cool.

I think there was a thread around here somewhere about where people get their usernames from O_o; -shrug.-
Anyway ... my name has nothing to do with fast food or computers. xD. It's actually the name of a character from a snowboarding game - SSX. Literally.

I'm so boring ~_~.

frank~iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiish ! lol that's me :D
I picked my username .... hmm... why did I pick my user name.. well originally I was Brokenwinged_Angel just because when I first joined I had the mentality to think that I was an "fallen" angel.
but being me I sort of got bored with just being called that, so I changed it up a little.
Sene just popped into my mind, I thought I was so cool cause I thought I came up with a cool name, I still do. But then I learned that more people started to use Sene, Seney Senny... makes me sad. lol xD
I'm Senny and posting here was a great idea. lol

Yes, you are that person. ^_^
And I have called you My BrokenWings because you really did remind me of a "fallen angel."

Keated

Keated was originally a charactor from a story I was writing. I am rubbish at names, and wish I wasn't XD The name came about from button mashing the keyboard, which gave me ktd, then I decided that'd probably be pronounced Keated.
On the first forum I ever went on, I needed a screen name that was unique, so I figured that my made up name would probably fit the bill :)
[If I ever rewrote that story (unlikely, it was crap to begin with XD) I'd now have to change the main charactor's name, since Keated is my name now, and he can't have it, muahahahaha XD]

Originally I was "Souichiro Nagi" here, the "Kharmy" comes from my name (Kharma), most people just affectionately call me Kharmy so I thought I'd stick with it.
