So, how did you come up with your Username?

I really like Hexadecimal from Reboot. That's it.

[Furo]

Shortening of "Furosuto Kibatodosu".
Weebspeak/chexmix for "Frost Walrus", a boss character from Megaman X4.

Amazing, I know.

Mine's the best out of everything. Why? Random Name Generator. Dunno why but it just fit.

Here's the story behind it. I had this character in Everquest and the name of it was a problem with another character that probably had the similar name to it so I was contacted by a GM to rename it. Unfortunately I had no idea what the name should be and the GM was in a rush(figures) so they said when I had come to a decision I can contact them to get it changed to that. For now I was randomly generated a temporary name. It never happened. Don't know why but I think whoever the GM was forgot all about it. But as time passed by the name kinda grew onto me and now it's part of me.

Cosmic Dolphin was a ship I used a lot in F-Zero GX to basically show my friends I could win in even the worst ship. I then started playing a lot of Armagetron Advanced in ranked fortress team tournaments, and my username was slightly too long to include my clan tag. So, it became CosmicDolfn to get fit the tag also.
I eventually quit the clan and remained active in the single player AA High Rubber and racing modes. I dropped the tag but kept the misspelling, and realized misspelling everything looked more natural than only a little. Without the tag, I could also now add "the" to the username, and I did for some reason.
I started using Cosmic Dolphin at least 10 years ago, and a variation ever since.

>TFW you discover that there's already a thread for this topic.

WELP, I guess I am bad at forum search.

^ yeah, but that was in 2013. Many threads have been created and it got lost in all of the mess. I had never seen that thread before, so.... if an admin or other staff wants to merge these that would be cool, but most of those users are inactive, so...

You know? That's actually a great idea.

[SERIOUSLY THOUGH*]

Poof. Mod magic.

Now that's the very definition of compulsive thanker.
