I have an alternative question for this topic... What username did you initially think of?

My username on Betilla's Gardens was MGKeyes, based on my real name. My dad said that people probably read it as "magik eyes", so I considered using that on RaymanPC, before deciding to smoosh a Plum in there instead :hap:

I was thinking of doing GiantChicken, as my pfp on everything is a goose giant chicken. I then realized that ranks exist, so I decided to go with my old username for everything, Ithasmore.

I think I know this journalist... This journalist has two names, right? ;)

I previously explained the origin of my name, but I don't think I mentioned that this wasn't the username I had in mind! I had intended to use the one I use on practically all other platforms, but for some strange reason I couldn't use it on the forum.

I originally used my name with my surname with my birth year, but then I realised that just using my first name (at least what people address me as) would work because nobody else had used it yet.

I’ve been going by the name Greengoop since a very young age. Probably only 6 or 7 when I first thought it up. First time I used it online was probably for an account on something circa 2019. Why did i pick it? Just sounded cool, and I liked green ig
