Why did you pick your username?

[The Jonster]

Whoa whoa what! The henchman800 had different numberings???

[PluMGMK]

Indeed he did:

So he's called "Henchman 80X" in the game, but in the intro video he's called "Hunchman". Put them together (en français) and you've got "Hunchman 801"

[The Jonster]

Hmmm that's interesting origins for Hunch's username. I wonder now if he played Rayman M in the past?

[Steo]

That's so stupid hahaha. The numbers incrementing like this. It's so ridiculous because it's clearly an oversight.

[PluMGMK]

The 90s equivalent of unchecked LLM output being included in official publications, I guess

[neo]

I did not even know Hunch's lore of his name until now, wow.

[Kiza/Raybox]

My username? Hmmm, alright!

KisaHD's Origins:
"It was somewhere around 2016-2017. My first NORMAL phone was Samsung Galaxy A3 at the time. And watching all the YouTubers I knew back in the day I decided to become one - to become popular! And then I gave myself this nickname - KisaHD. Kisa - cat in Russian and HD stands for high quality. I like when the resolution of the videos is HD, it's smooth~"

BoxxyStripes' Origins"
"This nickname was born recently - a year ago. It was close to New Year and I wanted to sign up to the site with game files, such as textures and music and such stuff like that. That's how I got my 2nd nickname - Boxxy Stripes. Boxxy - Raybox, Stripes - tiger stripes. Easy!"

I had many nicknames but they were quite temporary. As for Raybox, well, I'd say it's the RP nickname hehe
I can be called that anytime, no worries!

[RaypersonNikol]

Rayperson = what I thought Rayman's species was called
Nikol = character from Xenoblade 3: Future Redeemed

I like the idea of Rayman and Nikol being best friends. Not to the level of Rayman and Globox's best friendship, but to a really good friends type of thing?

Not only that, I also was thinking of Nikol being Rayman's species at the time and thought it was cute.

[Gottagocool11]

Apparently, how i picked the username "Gottagocool11" was hard to remember since time flew fast but i'll try to remember it :
When creating an account on another website, i thought of the phrase "Gotta go fast" but i think it was kinda boring and then swapped "fast" with "cool" and well, i think i'm okay with it.
Another inspiration for the username was when i watched a scene from a 2020 cartoon where a character utters the line alone while trying to act cool whenever she sees her.

[Nancy78]

Nancy78 = oc's name + two last numbers from 1978 year

Nancy is my first oc that I've ever created so I thought that it would be fun to use her name for a nickname here on this forum since I started my journey with creating ocs from Rayman games, the third one specifically. My 10 years old self didn't need a lot of motivation to created a cute doggo oc just because she liked André too much I just needed that moment of realization that hey, I can created a character, put her in the game and have fun - that's also how I began writing and how it became my main hobby. ...André did something good for once, omg XD

Now for the numbers it's more of a nostalgia and attachment. 1978 is the year when Keith Moon died and since he's my favorite drummer and musician I tend to use the numbers from the year he was born (1946) or the year he died (1978). I have a very bad memory for numbers so I'm using the ones I can remember and that won't have any connection to the birthdays of my parents or my own. It's a neat little trick for passwords :3

[Cho-Choo]

My name is pretty much a pun on how the sound trains make is written (Choo-Choo).

However, as ironic as it may sound, it didn't originate from this.

IIRC, my name originated from an Xbox nametag i had, it was like "Chocholate something something Mayhem_[Numbers, probably my birth year].
When i joined the Rayman Arena Discord server, i simply shortened that nametag an added an extra o at the end, because, if i have to be honest, i wasn't really original creating usernames, and it was convenient at the time.

Also, I'm pretty sure "Chocholate" came from me thinking "i like chocolate and trains, Chocolate + Choo-choo = Chocholate" (which is also ironic since i have never been in a train before ), so the pun still can be applied.

[Steo]

I'm definitely not very original when it comes to creating names, Steo is just basically my name.

[Hunchman801]

Hunch? or hUMCH?

What most people probably don't know is that "humch" and its variants were coined by Matyuv to annoy me but I ended up using them as alternative names anyway.

[Game Ze 2]

Game Ze is actually a direct translation of the Chinese username I used when I was a child, and there is indeed a Game Ze in the community that doesn't have 2 (I forgot my password, so I have 2).

[Raynic]

basically rayman and my name (nico) combined together
it's cool, it's nice, it's awesome, it's cool.
i mean it's pretty cool if you ask me
100/10

Goop might’ve known tho
