Well in this game Maplestory there is a giant fish monster called Peanis so yeah... i chose that and it also sounds funny

Cant wait to get to know you all better

>:3
I just wanted to be the guy that did it.
I need to ask you to stop. That...shouting...is making people nervous.
I was twelve and kingchris was taken, so genius me decided "Hey let's just turn that k into a c!" and here I am today.
I created my name shortly after the first Golden Sun came out. I was originally gonna call it gslord because the Lord class was my favorite in the game at first. After a few months, though, I started having an obsession with ninjas; that, coupled with discovering that GS had a Ninja class of its own, prompted me to switch over to gsninja.
My username was originally 'star platinum', which is Jotaro Kujo's Stand (think of it as a spirit animal) from the manga/anime series "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure".

After waiting 3 months for my submissions to be accepted, I decided to start posting in the forums while waiting on my trivia to be accepted; this is when I decided to change my username. Around that time I watched the movie "Prometheus" and I liked the concept behind the Engineers/Space Jockeys, so I just started to use it.

Sometime after, I decided to distance myself a little from my namesake, so I changed my name to Zpace Jockey (with a Z instead of a S) and later to ZpaceJ0ck0.
It's named after my WordPress site, which you can find here.

So where did you find the name for your WP ?

I just thought up of it, since the main focus of it is on old games. It's also a combination of "retro" and "utopia".
I literally only go by this name because its funny hearing people say it.
My username was originally eatona, my last name and first letter of my middle name.

After I submitted my first trivia (and the only one I planned on submitting), I started posting in the forums while waiting on my trivia to be accepted; I decided to change my username.

I'm a Zelda fan and thought of two names - Kakariko Kid and something else Zelda related, maybe Kokiri Kid. I also thought of Mr. Boom Bass Stick (a play on words of Mr. Bombastic by Shaggy). I let Beware of Cuccos choose.
Well, I use three overall so I'll discuss each of them.

retrolinkx, most likely came from masterlinkx, a youtuber who I found HILARIOUS at the age of 11, and honestly thought that name was somewhat cool. I enjoyed link, and considered myself retro to some regard. The entire reason the x is there is because someone was called retrolink for some reason.

Stusbu was a handle I used on Steam for a while, and for some throwaway accounts on other forums I don't particularly care for. This one is quite interesting as it came from what I perceived from a captcha system, it looked like "Stusbu" and I thought it sounded kinda cool and took it as my name.

Lastly, there's Not Alexander which is what I currently use for Steam. It came from God Hand.

Man, since I'm so attached to retrolinkx I'll probably use it well into my life.
It's more or less my actual name. At least, it's what my parents and oldest friends have called me since I was born (after my grandfather who I was named after and who also went by the same nickname). Now, there are many more who use it given that I go by Petie online everywhere but that's how it got started.
I received the name Colossus my first day in college when I attended NCU. I was a scrawny tall guy.
Later I used the name for urban exploring and just stuck with it ever since.
The CLX part of my username came from a fantasy project that I was developing with a friend of mine for a fantasy themed video game, we ended up scrapping the game since we found out that someone made a show with a similar premise to what we both talked about. The cool part just came from the fact that it was a nice chill(cool) day out.
