The tale of my username is a long one. Sit your asses down, it's story time.

So it was back in the ancient time of 2009, when I was actively fooling around on my DSi. As all cool kids did, I got the Flipnote Hatena application and enjoyed derping around with it, making animations and such. At one point I got the brilliant idea to change my DSi username to "Sol Reaper", as at the time I was fascinated with stories of the underworld and death and shit. Not in an emo way, but from a storytelling perspective, like how in Greek mythology you hear about the underworld and the River Styx and all that. So I started developing my own "underworld story". As it were, it turned into a projected Flipnote series using my main character, Sol Reaper. The basic story behind it is that there is a lord of the Underland, and a council of reapers who dictate underworldly matters. Each Reaper is assigned a Latin prefix based on which aspect of reality they rule over. Sol (meaning Sun) rules over the classic elements of Fire, Air, Water, and Earth. I could tell you more, but it might get a bit TL;DR, so if you'd like to hear the entire backstory to my insanity feel free to drop a PM.

TL;DR - I got the name from a story I was writing.

At the time I was looking for a new username (my old one was just a different spelling of my real first name), and I was also going through my 'artist phase.' I was looking around my buddy's room while we were hanging out, and then I spotted a pair of his boxer pajamas. They had an image of a tall ghost, or a yeti, or whatever. It was like a white chubacca. And it had a boombox. Now, I was also really into Mario, so, I just kind of redrew it as, a beatboxing boo. And yes.

It's the same as my deviantArt account created when I was 16 years old. At the time, I was fascinated by Scotland, so I choosed the most scottish name I could think of.

Now I kinda got attached to it. Also typing "AngusMcLeod" in google, my deviantart account comes on top. Angus McLeod Associates is second. This must be awkward for that guy when people search for him.

My username on most things that have Blake(my real name) taken is Bws2cool.

I made it 7 years ago when I was 11. I was joining CokeMusic(CokeStudios/MyCoke) and I think my mom thought of it for me cause I am very uncreative. It it my initials and "too cool", which is sort of egotastical. lol

As time went on I sort of hated it, but I can't think of a better name, so whatever. :colbert:

I came up with this when I was making my ROBLOX account a few years ago.

I didn't even know the SEGA game Flicky existed. I just came up with it out of nowhere.

It grew on me. Eventually I added Aperture as a prefix and I like to stick with that too.

My mum came up with my username waaaaay back when we first got internet set up in our house. I think I was about 8 or something at the time? I was big into Pokemon and my mum knew my favourite was Mew, so she combined my name with that to make Chloemew, and it's just stuck ever since. :B I've had a few variations on it in the past - namely Chloemew4ever (I have no idea what made me believe that sticking a "4ever" on the end would make it sound more awesome) and Invader_Chloemew, which I went by during the period in which I was one of "those" obnoxious, LOLXDSORANDUM I'M SO INSANE ^_____^ Invader Zim fans. Needless to say I don't go by that name any more. :'D

this was originally my pesterchum name, because I play accordion and mine is kind of terrible.

Used it as my name everywhere since I started it with pesterchum

Sometimes I'll use Skeleton Jelly or SkeletonJelly though

electronic goat came from when i was way younger and thought it was a cool name for a band or something
i used it as my first email address which i would start using again later and then it just stuck from same-username/password-syndrome
i also tried to use "ousieaux" at one point because i thought it sounded nice and was french for bird
that's my current username for some other things

I'm so used to Sloth being my username I actually freak out when I see the word used in books.
A character in a book series is afflicted with Sloth and for a second I thought they were addressing me
