The Reason why you chose your username

[LDL]

I have been suffering from low density lipoprotein problems for the past few years.  The amount of LDL in my body is slightly increased than before.  So I put my username as LDL.

LDL = Low Density Lipoprotein

[Don Pedro Dinero]

Those who know Spanish might think that I chose the nickname for some elitist reason, because 'Don' means 'Mr.' or 'Sir'. Nothing could be further from the truth. Just that when I was little there was a 'Don Pedro' who had quite a positive influence on me, it was a time when formality and speaking to people using the 'don' was more common. So, when I registered on the forum I was thinking of new ways of earning money apart from my normal job. Hence the surname 'Dinero'.

Tbh, I don't want my current username because it was generated from random thoughts, is there any particular privilege to change username without waiting long or at least remove some characters? I saw some users managed to change theirs without waiting long, and some just waiting for an uncertain application.

[Mauser]

So, why do you chose that username?

I have been using my username many times by now. It comes from gaming, ever since I started playing Battlefield 1 when it came out, it became my absolute favourite shooter. It's so much better than the last two Battlefield games. By now I have more than 2000 hours in the game, and my most used weapon is still Gewehr 98. It's such a reliable and great rifle in the game that you don't need anything else. As I also like history I read a lot about the rifle, it's a Prussian made rifle 1898  that basically became the standard infantry rifle by many nations back in the day. And the manufacturer was called Mauser, which became my username. Today the company doesn't exist anymore on it's own, they are now part of Rheinmetall and hopefully don't mind I took their name  .

Is it worth worrying about? My nickname was generated exactly the same, but I don't see any problem with that. I see that there are people who want to change their and there are even members who were able to convince the administrator to change their nickname several times, but apparently, they had big reasons for this. Being on the forum, we already recognize many by their nicknames, and it's fun to some extent, but we don't know their real names. But if I tell my friends about some forum members and pronounce their nicknames freely, my friends laugh heartily and say that the forum has become a small country with its own life and people's names.
On the other hand, we all want anonymity, and choosing the nicknames that we use on other resources is, in my opinion, very careless.

[dewo_sat]

"dewo" is a nickname since I was born. And "sat" is short for the second word of my middle name.

Maybe in this forum it could be an abbreviation of Decentralized_World_by_Sathoshi (dewo_sat)  

[Jet Cash]

I don't try to hide my identity. I chose my name because I own the .com domain JetCash.com and it seemed apposite for a crypto forum.

[krishnaverma]

I did this because my astrologer told me that if I keep this username on this forum, other members will address me as "Dear Sir".

[yahoo62278]

When I came to the forum, I wasn't sure if I was staying. So, I snagged yahoo due to my email provider I used at the time and 62278 for my birthday. Here we are years later and apparently, I have decided to stick around for a bit.

[TheBeardedBaby]

Here's my weird uname with weird story behind it.
I was using avatars bearded babies, coz I like beard and I was a newbie (baby) here (and in crypto in general), so the perfect combination and something unique, no one esle used before.
I like to shock people so the name just came naturally

Sorry to hear that you are not happy with your current username, just like you, mine does not have any special meaning to me, and i just generated it based on what i was randomly thinking when i was registering my account, i am not bothered about it in anyway and maybe you shouldn't too. As long as your username isn't doxxing you in anyway i don't think you should be worried too much. If you have not sent a message to theymos for a change of name, then maybe you should try and see if luck is on your side, find a good reason why you want him to change your name, but if he ignores your request, just move on bruh.

[Hispo]

When I first joined the forum I decided to use this user name because it makes reference to how people have called me in other web pages and corners of the internet (I also like to keep user names short), I wanted to have a similar user name but at the same time I wanted it to sounds a bit sillier. The pronunciation it is supposed to be the Spanish one not the English one, by the way.

[Marykeller]

If am to register on any platform newly, I find a way to get my username from my surroundings or someone I am with at the moment. I think my username "Marykeller'' came as a result of whom I am with when registering in the forum. Her name was Mary, and her nickname was Keller. At first, when registering, I enter Mary as my username, but I was informed that the name " Mary" is already existing, I had to add Keller to make it unique. That's how I arrived at Marykeller as a username

[mendace]

I honestly find this thread funny but I can answer you like this, do you think Satoshi Nakamoto is a name or a pseudonym? And what makes you think that what you will choose is the truth?

There is no how you must have used bearded baby avatar in the forum without first registering in the forum.  The story does not relate such to me. Unless you were using a bearded baby avatar in other groups or social platforms and go accustomed to it before signing up here.

KingsDen - My real name has something to do with Kings. The home of the Lions is called den. Then the home of Kings should be KingsDen.
Only the brave visits the lions den. Guess the calibre of people that visit the KingsDen.

[zaki12]

I have a reason why I don't use my real name on my Bitcointalk account because my name is too familiar, seriously it's so familiar that if I use that name it's not available, someone already uses it. finally I had to use the current name Zaki12 because the name was available.

It's so familiar where I live that many people use that name, there is one neighbor whose nickname is the same as my nickname, it just so happens that his house is next to my parents' house, exactly.

Something unpleasant happened, the wrong target (gossip) a lot of unpleasant gossip was shown to me until it sounded in my ears because I felt I had done nothing wrong, especially since I didn't like gossiping with my neighbors, of course the accusations were not true. it wasn't me but my next door neighbor. It's really not wearing once have a familiar name.

[Majestic-milf]

 On most of the social networks, I make use of my real name, so when I got on here, I opted for something different. Like way way different from what I was used to picking and to be frank, a friend just suggested it to me and at the time, I was repulsed by it because of what it actually means. But I later got around to be cool with it, because if there's anything I've learned, it's never to judge a book by its cover and cool things come out of crazy things.

[sujonali1819]

If I'm not wrong I saw a thread like this here about 2 years ago maybe. Where a lot of users shared their reason for choosing their username.

So in my case, I used this my username without any reason but I added the last 1819 which indicates an internal connection between every letter and its word. Though I don't want to share directly the reason

[Ndabagi01]

Usernames are simply used to distinguish people more clearly. In my case, the reason for the username is bounded to my native language. The name means "Strong Man", the 01 affix to it means "number 1". I believe that only the strong can triumph when it comes to bitcoin, hence the name.

Is this the thread?

There are other threads as well and its interesting AF to see how other member came up with their username. Probably its best to eat some popcorn while reading this
