Maybe something about Ella? do you know any 'Ella' 's? does that name have any significance to you? I don't know.. It was just a thought...

Hmm, well. It all started a long time ago (roughly a year ago) when I joined a little game called Platform Racing 2. I made an account called spottedfang the cat (still my main account, and I still go on) and I ended up making some good friends. Ever since then, I used variations of spottedfang, and it turned into things like Spotted, Spott, Spots, and eventually, Spawts, thanks to my friends and their nicknaming me. And thus, Spawtzi was born. And then we all turned into unicorns and galloped into the sunset. The end.

Re: Tell us about your Username

When I was signing up for Neopets in my early childhood I wanted a unique name like everyone else, since Draven (my name) was taken literately everywhere.

I recalled that I was playing the RPG series Palladium with my father, so I attempted to spell it by sound. From that I got Pladim (Plaid(*like the shirt pattern*)-dim). I only used the name there, preferring my old nickname "Gamemaster" I gave myself.

Not wanting to be called other, mean, variations of that nickname online, I went with Pladim when I got into serious gaming.

Since then I have been known as Pladim, even using it for my Fursona's name. If my name is taken from somewhere, I fall back on Plaidim, but I've only had to do that for Runescape and Origin.

I even have an alternate last name, Coven (pronunced Cove-En) which is from the profile name I used when playing Perfect Dark on the N64 when I was a kid. I never did find out who made that profile though..

Edit : Forgot the cover of the RPG book that inspired my name!

I use to play Neopets as well, back when I played other browsing games. I was trying out new things, and I actually grew fond at first, but grew out of it after seeing there was no end to it. I played some sort of blue dragon creature. =P

Bad games are only bad if you felt embarrassed about playing it, but I wasn't embarrassed about it. Neopets was cool back then, it just wasn't as cool as Digimon or Pokémon back then, in my opinion.

I neglected giving my user name a Middle Name, might as well have a full alternate name.

"Serma", it is my clan's name, it stands for "Seriously Messing Around". Variations include SMA, and SerMesAr. There has never been a dull moment with my clan, and I'm glad to make it a part of my online self.

Well my favorite video game is "The Legend of Dragoon," so I usually use some sort of username related to the characters in that game.

Dart is the main character of the game, and he is a Dragoon. So: DragoonDart!

My username was actually the title of my first youtube let's play. I was playing the first level of "007 Nightfire". My youtube color scheme was Neon blue and Neon green.

It was a very intense gameplay, and right as the emp was about to hit the van with the bomb, I cut the video to a bear going fishing, then to a dragon fly landing on a flower. Then it cuts back to the video, and the emp hits the van. And THEN I edited the video to where the emp set off the bomb, cut off the part where the van crashes, and it leaves Bond driving a way from the bomb he just exploded and the MI6 director congratulating him for blowing it up.

I thought it needed an awesome name, so I named it "MrNeonShot"!
Such a good name that I adopted it, and I haven't gotten rid of it yet.
The video, on the other hand, my parents told me to delete because they were afraid of copyright infringement or something.
This user is probably dead here. You can find me on Skype by the same username to see if I'm not actually dead.

My username came from Archie comics, actually. Vegas is Archie's dog in the current comic and sacrificed his life to save Archie in Afterlife With Archie 5. It was a pretty intense moment and I just loved how the dog was portrayed in the comic and the devotion between Archie and Vegas was. It must have been really well written if it stuck with me enough to use it as a username. :lol:

My username is from a story I'm brainstorming, wherein I am trapped in the Housepets! universe. Douglas is the name I get stuck with as a corgi, and Collier is the surname of Thomas Collier, the nice man who takes my friend and me in.
Douglas isn't my real name, but because of a name block put on me by a higher-order being known as Djinni, I can't say my real name.

Ehh, I don't really have a fancy story. I just picked this up as one of my many names. Though I like the one the most and tend to do variations if it's taken. Apparently it's a Hungarian name or something.

I picked this username because it was the first username I made, and no one else has thought of it, so I always use it, so if you see anyone with this username anywhere? It's probably me.

I am Ade, and I came up with/am working on bringing back a comic featuring a pack of wolves who might as well be a slightly less deadly version of Apature Science, the pack name being the Nightwolves. In my canon pack name = surname so... meh, there you have it. It only ocurred to me that I'd subconsciously used the name of a Mortal Kombat character when it was too late.

"Bucky" is basically an alternate personality of mine. He is really hyper and oblivious most of the time. Kinda like Peanut, but somewhat more playful. I made him a kangaroo/my fursona soon after. Since he is a personality, Im not fond of bringing him out socially. The real me is not like him at all, but when Im alone I like to act like him a lot :P

I should mention that Stan tagged me with Doug first, and I figured I could live with it. I picked Stanley, after one of my favorite Disney cartoons growing up.
