So here's the deal. Ryan's time machine experiments ripped a hole in the space time continuum and you've been catapulted back to before you registered on this site! You have one big choice before you hit that "Register" button. What username will you be choosing? Keep in mind no one knows who you are or knows anything about you. For example I could be Splatrific and no one would be like "why is vig splatrific?" because Vigilance has never existed in this time line. I know name changes are dictated by not going to out of the ordinary or choosing something that matches your online personality that people associate you with but this is a blank slate! Go crazy!
I just joined today, so I'd imagine it'd be something colorful directed at your server after spending so much time crafting a long-eff intro post and infiltrating your Discord. Then I would regret everything. (On a serious note, probably also Minty Electric. Maybe without the space to be classy.)
I have grown fond of the name "Horizon" (no, not just because me + the smods would be Horizon Zero Dawn, although that would be amazing). Wizard is a fairly generic name and I only keep it around because that's what people here recognize me as. Why do I like the name Horizon? I have no clue. It just seems to point to good things in the future (or possibly bad, your call).
I'm going to keep the discussion going till I can think of one (maybe some of you will inspire me haha) but I only have kept Vigilance around cause that's what people recognize me as. I guess in an online world it's convenient people can recognize you. I'm also a sucker for one word usernames. I feel they beat 2 name ones. What are your thoughts?
I'd name myself Logan Paul. Just kidding (he's irrelevant). I'd probably just name myself Chicken. Chickens are awesome.
I'd keep my name SyWry. It was designed to sound exotic and I really did nail it with the name. Its a name I've had for longer than I've been on LV and I don't think I'll ever change it. I am SyWry, and I always will use this username to define me online. Also, no one ever has this username so I never need to make other usernames because the one I want is taken.
I'd also most likely keep my name, as I'm quite fond of it. If I would have to change it, I'd probably name myself "Starlight", cuz why not.
I'd probably still be BZRich64 because I try to use that name on everything for consistency. That way its easier for people to know that its me on different sites. Not that anyone cares. If I were to go with something else, then... I'd probably just take the 64 off and be BZRich. The 64 part of my name is the only part that had no direct connection to me as an individual and is just kind of there as an homage to the Nintendo64. Personally I think my name looks cooler with the 64, though, so who knows. If I were to pick something completely different than my current username, then I guess maybe MustachioedMachamp.
Given that my original name here was not actually Captain Comet, I would probably just name myself that right off the bat. It's the username I use for everything, even if it's already taken (I just mismatch a couple letters). If I had to change it, I'd probably go with 16-Dream. I literally just made that up now, but I feel it actually represents me more than Captain Comet. The 16 comes from my love for 16-bit, pixel-styled games, and Dream from me being such a fantastical dreamer with a pretty ridiculous imagination.
I'd probably use the exact same name I use for this site (and everywhere else) because, well, it's the name I use for everything, from Minecraft to YouTube. It's become nostalgic for me, so I use it. Or name myself GamerMan97 or something. You can never really tell with past myself.
Hm, well let's see. If I chose something other than Momo Kisaragi...I would probably use Evie or something related to my fanfiction, I dunno...hm... Pocky, just because that's the name I've been interested in lately. Don't ask me why. =)
(Fun fact: I was actually about to put RadEmpoleon395 as my username, to match my Wattpad’s account name, but I figured I should drop the numbers and just be RadEmpoleon.) If I didn’t pick that, I probably would’ve picked a username I was already using somewhere else (either QueenOfQuirks, my main Wattpad account’s name, or JerryTheSeal, my Discord username). I probably was more likely for QueenOfQuirks than JerryTheSeal because the latter one makes everyone think my name is Jerry, but that’s the name of the seal avatar I use. I settled on RadEmpoleon instead of the other 2 I mentioned because it was Pokémon themed.
i would still be skittle because i am skittle i am just skittle and will always be skittle, im too lazy to think of a new alias
I've been calling myself Ridlins for such a long time, I think I'd still keep the same name. I like this name, and I don't feel like coming up with a new one.
I wouldn’t change my username since I’m quite fond of it, but there would be some other changes. For one, I’d introduce myself on the introductions section rather than make a profile post. Not sure why I did that. The other would have be to create a better profile page. Even now, my current page is pretty barren.
If I was to start a new name, I would probably subtract zero from it, whatever it is. Honestly, I'm a really big fan of Mega Man X (moreso than his red best friend), so I'd perhaps have X as part of my name somewhere (and not just x_Zero_x or something like that). That or I'd reference my favorite Pokémon type of Steel and include that, perhaps as StainlessSteel. Or combine the two and become a Metagross, made of blue steel and with an X across its face? Hmmm. Ideas. Oh, and anyone with buyer's-remorse on their current name: https://lakevalor.net/threads/username-change-requests-2-0.23885/. The option is available without a time machine!
I picked Wolf Expert originally because someone recruited me from fanfiction where I go by the same name. I've never felt really inclined to change it, so it would probably be the same. If I had found the site through other means, I probably would have gone by Kveta since that's the name I use for pretty much everything else, based on an old D&D character I used to play.
