levy

Farmhand
Now this is a fun one. A lot of people ask me "why levy" because I only belatedly learned that it was some kind of actual family name, but it has nothing to do with it.

The actual history of my name comes from my very first Online-Experience on a board for a farming simulator (cough cough, Harvest Moon cough cough) where my nickname used to be "Lavendel" (Lavender) and people in an IRC chat thought that was too long to keep writing so they shortened it to levy (no idea why not lavy tbh), and since that was a more neutral name instead of the botany focus, I kept it as nickname for all of my internet history to follow xD

I literally contemplated to pick up the old name for this board here just for the sake of nostalgia.
 
Aha! Awesome topic! My name is old for me and has a long past to it. But I'll keep it short. It's a name I use for my most used wizard character that has been through many iterations and games. He's also been in a few short stories I wrote years ago. Not very detailed, but it's a character I've had history with for many years.
 
Where did all of you get your usernames, or common usernames you have in general? I always love to read about how people identify themselves online, and how things just work out.

To start, I've had quite a few usernames over the course of my many years on the internet, but Magically Clueless was a name that I had since a youngin and it just stuck for some reason. It was an offshoot of a previous username I had (cluelesscomedy) combined with a story I was working on at the time (it was called tales of magical muffin land, but in my defense i was like 11)

I'm still working on that story, but needless to say it has a different title now LOL

I also like using Mirutanku in a lot of places, usually when my normal username is too long. It's just the Japanese name for Miltank, one of my favorite pokemon.

Quirinea

Farmer
Vakuur Bairn. As a cub I saw dragons on the moon where others saw men. I named them Vakuur. Bairn is old celt for child. Bam
Linguist in me sees a spark... "barn" means child in Icelandic, Danish and Swedish. Could they be related?

For my nick: Quirinea was a character name I took when I started playing Baldur's Gate. Later I took it (or variants thereof in case that was taken) as my Internet nick.
