Bear 26-12-2013 05:58 PM

Everyone calls me Bubs. When I was younger I used to wear furry jumpers and got called Bubsy Bear because I looked like a fluffy lump, and that was my first username here. After a couple of years it got shortened to Bear :-)

not_so_insig 26-12-2013 06:35 PM

I was feeling small and insignificant, and also there's only one of me, hence insignificant one. I should change it because I no longer feel insignificant, but I cant decide on a username.

I used a random username generation thing deciding on another username for another website however.

I always get called bear and the lovely gf said I'm bananas hence the username :)

Can't blame you for that one!

I think it was it was decided at a meet I should be called FabulousMike or at least someone told me to be called it, may have been Katy, not sure.

Alice InWonderland 26-12-2013 08:08 PM

My username is my nickname :)

Charmed 26-12-2013 09:04 PM

I was obsessed with the tv programme at the time (still obsessed just pretend I'm not). And obviously I live such a charmed life ;)

Shoshana Rochel 26-12-2013 10:41 PM

It's my Hebrew name :)

Cacoethes 26-12-2013 11:11 PM

Cacoethes means 'an irresistible urge to do something inadvisable'

I thought it suited me :P

nowhereman 26-12-2013 11:39 PM

Easy, I married Bill Kaulitz! I actually did too, online. He just doesn't know yet lol.

I've been wondering what that meant for ages! Mystery solved...

Too Shy 27-12-2013 01:00 AM

I saw it on an avatar somewhere back in the days, and it suits me muchly! I think t'is the name of a song.

I don't like it much anymore, it's a bit negative. Half considering changing it, but I don't think anyone would know me enough to recognise me on here if I did! If I do, it will be a combination of two songs I like.

almostAwarrior90 27-12-2013 01:19 AM

My favorite artist is Demi Lovato and her song, Warrior is something I really relate to. I'm barely beginning recovery, so I'm "almost a warrior".

I'd recognise you! If you kept the same avatar and signature for a while after, I reckon most people would recognise you :)

Colley2698 27-12-2013 04:17 AM

Colley is what my 4 year old cousin has called me since he could talk so it just kind of stuck with me and my birthdate 02/06/98 I'm not very creative so it's just something easy for me to go with

ConfusedKidd 27-12-2013 04:49 AM

I have always used the suffix 'kidd' on the end of my usernames. I hang out with older people, so that is what they call me.

Confused is the emotion I felt when I sighed up for the site.

***I love the Hollywood Undead quote by the way! Bullet is one of my favorite songs by them, it a summation of my feelings. I still have my signed poster from back when they came to Maine in 2008. It has Deuce instead of Danny though XP

Rohinald was a random name generator
Victim+of+hate/Banged and bruised/cut to size/Lace me up were just horribly emo
Reine de dependance was when I was heavily addicted to drugs and I think it vaguely translated as queen of dependance
Kaytii was my best friend's name and I needed to be ninja
Taraxacum was googled because I didn't wanna go for dandellion and I like that a dandellion just goes on and on.
Apple of your eye was mocking a friend
Mystic death was a random rock band name generator :P
-Carpe Diem was a feeble chance at being positive
Severus Snape 'cause why not?
Chelscar because it's my name + scar
*is struggling to remember other usernames*

EDIT; and if my name request goes through, it'll be the name of where I live, kinda :]

You've had a lot of usernames, Chels :P And what's your new username going to be??
