It's the Latin version of my name (which is just a tree), and vox for voice. So, Juniper's Voice. Rather on the nose, but I like it.
it's my name, with a 2k tacked onto the end, because I started using it a long time ago..
dry sarcasm aside, I have many online "handles" I use but I found that I'm totally ok consilidating most of my online presence under my real google-able identity.... MOST
I like the Longest Johns who wrote a song called Moby Duck, and I also like Radio Caroline a group of old-school offshore pirate radio enthusiasts set to be the last British radio station left on AM pretty soon, they broadcast on 648 kHz.
I was really into Changeling: The Dreaming, cyberpunk, and old DOS 8.3 filenaming back in the day. It just stuck.
Mine originally was a reference to an album by Val Emmich, “Slow Down Kid”. I used that for a long time and finally decided that since I’m in my 30s it was time to drop the “kid” part. slowd0wn is now my online/gamer handle and has been for several years
I got into an argument with my ex, and I came out of it feeling totally defeated and completely worthless; like nothing I ever said mattered to anyone. I deleted my first Reddit account and all my internet forum accounts the same night, since I had nothing to add to any discussion anywhere.
When I finally climbed my way out of that despair pit (and that relationship), I made a new, half-ironic username on that theme. "ad acta" is Latin, and it literally translates to "from the archives", but in common use it was a phrase meaning "irrelevant". So Vox ad Acta is "Voice of the Irrelevant".
grape + apple = grapple
My old Ultima Online character's name was Tintagel (like the castle from Arthurian legend). I used LadyTintagel as a username for a long time, and eventually it was shortened to just Tin.
Been using the handle for years since I started it in World of Warcraft. Just stuck with me.
I like anime, so I am an animefans
Its from a region from a certain JRPG I adore but misspelt
Blue skies are an image of good times and I have chronic depression. I like making people smile, though, so I keep it upbeat.
I'm in California. Blue skies over California.
I shortened the last bit because I'm into the whole brevity thing, dude.
Never put the "original content"/OC thing together, but that works too.
I am a fan of Gene Wolfe's books, especially The Book of the New Sun. The main character of the books is named Severian, who claims he has ''perfect memory'' (or how he remembers things the way he prefers it)
It was the closest object to me when I needed a username several years ago.
My full name is Amanda and my gf nicknamed me Mandy, so henceforth that is all I shall be
William Murderface Murderface Murderface
I was making an account to play Command & Conquer: Renegade. The NOD team had a unit called the Chem Warrior that shot liquid tiberium like a flame thrower, thought it was super cool. Don't remember how I ended up on Slayer instead, but it stuck
I’m terrible at naming things so I used a random username generator.
I also like to have numbers at the end so if anyone actually desires the username “Evergreen” I, who don’t really care too much about getting that specific username, will not be taking it from them. It’s a dictionary word, those get snapped up fast.
If you have to ask, I have a TV series for you.
