gaming
it's my irl nickname
Im a literal clown irl (or so my friends call me).
Irl nickname from my dad
it sounds kinda cute i think
somewhat presents that i want to be referred to as a girl too
Its basic, looks nice &, uhhhh its gud 
X d
Because of rick and morty
Stolen the name from the funni cartoon
what name
I love low poly video games, since they do so much with so little.
And like it is a good nickname, i like how it sounds
wanted to change it and thought a character in arknights was cute and worked as an actual name
unsure about my identity
We do not talk about Deathbringer.
Anyway I wanted to keep it as Circuits In The Sea but I thought it was too long and shortened it to Circuits.
i have whole lore background on the name
because I mentally and physically heal people with my mere presence
main username (cozygalaxies) was chosen bc i liked how it sounds and it was a VERY vague nod to my irl name
current name was created bc i needed an alt (i abandoned my old acc dw) and i happened to really like that one greek tragedy remix that went viral on tiktok years back so yay! ! !! ! ! !! !! yippee yahooey
Actually it might just be because someone accidentally called me jerry and it stuck on to me idk can't remember fish memory
I’m guessing Deathbringer was 10 year old you trying to look cool
Which I am quite embarrassed to talk about
Actually it was more 14 (or 15) year old me just keeping the Garden Warfare tag on every account I had
GARDEN WARFARE
Same difference tbh
Yeah
Garden warfare subtracts 4 years from your lifespan so let’s just count it now
Lmfao
Is it that bad
I loved it
10 year old me really wanted garden warfare but money doesn't grow on trees as they say
Literally
GW2 and Minecraft are the only PC games I've played lmao
idk really
Also league but never play it it just gathering dust in the folder
tbh idk
Mine is Minecraft and minesweeper
i just saw hydreigon be lower than latias on the viabilty rnakings
and i just chose my name cuz i got uspet lmao
im so stupid sometimes lol
Asserting dominance
Gen 7 UU?
Shorter version of my old name that I did rename after getting advice from my friend about stop being so negative on myself
It was after my breakdown in June
~15 year old me and my friends were choosing clash royale usernames and gemsy kinda stuck with me even though to this day i have never pronounced it out loud and everyone pronounces it differently somehow and i find it funny
Thanks for the clarification i almost said Gem Zed
GemZED
GemZED
GemZED
Joke name I thought of while making the account, I can probably change it but I don't have ideas
why must you all do this
i would say gem see
we do little tomfoolery
For the funny.
Pronounce the G like Gift 🔥
multiple people have referred it like that so you are not wrong
Jem Zed
gift g sound
several people are typing is typing
Lil bit more background on Circuits.
It's from the line on Electric Feel by MGMT "Push your circuits in the sea"
i like mango juice
After further consideration i will share the LORE
BASED
Who doesn't
I see that others have sensed the brilliance as well
Top tier juice
Isn't your irl name just Nicholas or something
I chose it for my brawl stats username when I was 11 cause I thought it sounded cool and I kept it
And that's why you put Nicc?
It is but the name itself went through 4 different stages 😭
Oh
what's brawl stats
I want the lore
and 3 of them were during the cringe 10-15 year old period
Tbf IcyyInferno does sound cool
My real name is nikocado avocado
do you exhaust irl too
Cool, icy almost
because it's a wonderful acronym for a certain kind of gentals in a certain kind of language
Bro 😭
gentalman
This name just kinda popped into my head one day and I was like oh that's a good pokemon related username and then forgot about it for months until I was changing my online shit and remembered it
@heavy palm TELL ME THE LORE
Kinda sounds like terminator when you say it
Cool
Does it?
Cradily Eee
That was my old sd name
Yes that or i have a horrible accent
what was the story behind triple e
Bro had his whole personality around Cradily
Cause fish cat is best cat
We don't talk about back then
I've shown this many times before, but icymi, here it is again.
Niccy type faster
don't rush it 
wait both nicc and me (rocc) have our usernames after irl names and it ends in cc
because of german ytps
So when was around 10-12(forgot specifically) i made a GOOGLE PLUS ACCOUNT!!! 🚨🚨🚨 and needed a name AND being a DanTDM fan i went with NickTEG(The Emerald Gamer!!! 🚨🚨🚨). Years later got on Discord and shortened it to NICKTEG and had a comical attempt at a YouTube channel where banged out with "Gaming with Nick"!!! 🚨🚨🚨. That period lasted about a whole month and after that just cut all the bullshit to Nick but having all the past connect made me sad and got the genius idea of changing the k to c so here we are with Nicc
(the !!! 🚨🚨🚨 Is for dramatic effect and not part of the name)
yeah
Gaming With Nick is my new fav gaming channel
YEAH
is the channel still alive
To be faiiir
Latias was a bit better
correct decision probably
oh yeah
Lmao
Do it again
With miner poison
Also this is a really good question
Thanks Tryb
but midladder edition
I MADE A NEW ACCOUNT JUST FOR THE CHANNEL
I have maybe 8 clash accounts half of which i don't know the Gmail to
4 are lost to time 😭
like 12 years ago or so i was making a new account for poptropica because i kept forgetting the passwords for the other ones + i didnt have an email then to bind them
so was trying to add words to meet the 8 character minimum for a username. kept hihigocat as my username for other stuff since then (way too much stuff probably)
A mix of initials, favourite number, and funny emoticon face.
Usernames change but XD is eternal
Funnily enough Tee See Ecks Dee just rolls off the tongue
Yeah
Yeah
I shorten it to TC occasionally
Btw Tryb what's your lore
Ik about your change from Mitsake but why Trybel
realest opinion
Oh yeah why did you change your name anyway Trybel
Self deprecation isn’t something you should name yourself after
yeah my username a long time ago had something like that too
wait are y'all collecting info about people, firstly you ask about pfp, now it's about nickname

What happened to zLightningz
next ima collect your IP addresses
qotd > Why did you choose your IP address?
So that I can find your IP address
Because it was the last IPv4 IP left :(
Jokes on you I live in a sewer i dont have one
we share the IP (i live in your walls)
479a:7f2d:1049:d27e:b194:572f:37c0:1337
Oh no he is starting the hacking process
Now it will collect all the ip's
would you rather get your ip leaked or get rickrolled
Ip leaked definitely
Can I kill myself instead
not allowed today
can i kill you instead
Egg festival is tomorrow so also no
God damn it monday it is
Its always something about monday that's just so depressing
not a valid address, at least not yet
also nice
Ok so
I needed a name for cr
I thought the name "burpee" was funny
MrBurpee didn't sound like a "gamer" name(I was 10 at the time) so I named myself MrBurp3
Haven't changed it in 8 years
shhhhh
I used it first for my gmail or Minecraft username idk.
i'll just put it very simply
it is a misspelling of a japanese word tenkuu (tenkū)
at the time i didn't notice it but later i decided to keep it anyway
Porn
💀
My best friend was called “ImASpoon123”
sushi
Really really tough question man i just dont know
Mister and Christopher kind of rhyme
it good
Took a piece from the original name and then I got another alt since I had account trouble with the first one.
The nickname is from pfp. Wait I just changed my username entirely.
My irl name and my birthday
ive dressed up as a elf before
I couldn't think of anything good for my first online game when I was like 8 so I entered random numbers and letters and it had a surprisingly nice ring to it to say aloud so it's just stuck the last decade+
aristotle/aristocrat (no particular reason other than i like how these syllables sound together) + yoshi (favorite mario character at the time) extra i was added because i'm really stupid
i didn't think much about my tag because at the time i was just trying to get the fuck off of an among us related tag as fast as possible lol
Any lore behind Z3ht?
One day in the computer lab in 4th grade while playing diep.io I kind of just typed in random characters and it worked
Z3ht still a hard username I just prefer Zcarlett rn cause exceedingly obvious reasons, might go back to Z3ht one day idk
Temmie
(Hoi)
And also a pusheen picture
For most games my ign (ddxk) is from my parents
i dont get what bone shopping has to do with being trans but ok
username
Xbox randomized username: “PillowyBike8768”
After a very long time, I shortened it to “Pillowy09”
Then I removed the numbers to just “Pillowy” because several people thought I was born in 2009 (the 09 is cuz I was born in September)
Just my username with my friends clantags
I asked my friend Spodz for a name and he said Spidz
I was the Wario to his Mario, the Himmler to his
floppitybopps
too late
i have your old username permanently marked
It is simple my two favorite games are angry birds and plants vs zombies
🙏
Because people irl call me skinny
Happens to the best of us 😔😔✌️
"DoubleD" has a number of meanings behind it
My old username "DukeDuck" had two Ds
I'm essentially known by both these names, so my names are now doubled
I miss DukeDuck 
And "DoubleD" itself sounds cool to me
I like jackfruits
and I game
I forgot
forgor
It's an old nickname that needs changing
So.
My username on the server ?
Wanted something in the theme
My real username ?
Wanted to change the usual i always take and went for a reference only me remember
Welp
my Xbox name used to be creeperking and I changed it to creeper blade in honor of techno
Lovely name
Its part of my name
Mainly Aussie-chan
Used to be that cuz that sounds like "OC"
Aokubaru is smth named after my name
'Super Awesome' cause I'm super awesome and the 'H' is just the first letter of my name
real
Because I am easily confused by religious figures with names that have the same last 3 letters
Such a good origin story
(specifically i was watching prince of egypt with my sister and got the two mixed up lol)
I thought this username (my regular one, which is The_RNG_Master) wasn't cringe
had a friend who snorted salt once, couldnt think of anything better
a lot of people think my name has something to do with my behavior
pure coincedence
🤠
Old question but here goes
So back in 2015, i had some sorta after school thing, and during this we were supposed to give ourselves a nickanme. I came up with tobias (as in the guy from gumball) idk why but that was my choice. Later on that shortened to Toby, and i precieded to use it in every one of my usernames
So ye this is a nickname of a nickname
The story behind my name?
Well, in fact “Anna” is actually Anna from Frozen
I have chosen an English name for myself since young, and I choose her name because she’s a brave girl, and I want to be like her
And “Miller”, I found it on a tiktok video
Where they said my VNmese surname can be translated to English as “Miller”
So, that’s how AnnaMiller was born
Took me a while four days to realize Jesus and Moses don't have the same 3 last letters but you get the idea
Jeses
Juses
same pronunciation though
Idk tbh, just felt like it? Only thing i can think of is the fact i main "Yuumi" in LoL.
yeah that was why the confusion happened in the first place lol
