    Well, my name is Umi so... 'Umi'. I've had an odd obsession with dragons since the day i learned to walk so... 'Wyvern'.
    The 'Z' is just... whatever you want it to be... Zebra... Zen... Zealand... Zachary... Zombie... Zip....... It's also my favourite letter...
    And the 'X' came from a video game series I've been a part of the fandom of for years called Kingdom Hearts... Xs are just significant in that series...
    Yup. That' s about it.

    Mine was a bit of a cop-out. I've never been good at usernames so I just thought "ummmmm.... I like art and feeling mysterious, so this'll do".

    But thinking about it, It could imply that I'm someone else's creation, which might imply the existence of a divine creator (not something I believe in).

    Or, it could be a reflection of how I'm easily influenced, which is true.

    Or, 'cause it's so ambiguous, how imma COMPLEX HUMAN. I'll just go with that

    Mine can be interpreted a number of ways:

    Libertino = Spanish word for "libertine"
    Libertino = Liberal + Latino (which I am)
    Libertino = Libertarian + Latino (which I also am)

    :slight_smile:

    Kodo is derived from the following Japanese words:

    Kodokushi- one who dies alone
    Kodokuna- lonely man
    Kodo- type of drum which, when played, mimics the human heartbeat

    I like your username as I would consider myself a libertarian as well.
    That said, mine is not nearly so meaningful I guess. Mine is just because way back when I was obsessed with Angel and Buffy. So..........Angeluscrzy........his all so sexy alter ego.

    I originally used this screen name in a story I was writing. I decided to go with it (because I am nb and I love turtles)

    No, not me, unfortunately. I'm a bit camera shy so I prefer picking beautiful boys to represent me. Actually though, this avatar was picked for me by a friend here at EC (GreenRanger).

    And my profile picture is of Aaron Taylor Johnson, an actor.

    Forsythia is a flower! Except my username has two Rs. Also, it's a character in a children's manga book 'Happy Happy Clover.' :grin:

    I'm a fan of a show called the big bang theory and Sheldon Cooper one of the main characters uses bazinga as a way of saying he was joking. The actor that plays Sheldon is gay and I've envied him for being out but love him as an actor as well. And the 87 is the year I was born because someone else on here must like Sheldon too

    I just want to apologise if any of the content of this reply is inappropriate. I am not sure if this is necessary but some may find this upsetting/triggering. I apologise in advance.


    I know it sounds weird but I have grown up with the notion of stars leading the way, directing you, protecting you. I am not sure whether I actually believe it or not but it kind of fits with how I apply this interpretation. Sky is not only where stars are located but Skye is also what I would like my name to be. So, long story short: I believe stars give direction, protection and hope. Due to severe anxiety and depression (etc). I felt as though I was trapped and I didn't have any guidance or protection. ie, the Sky is dark, empty, Starless.
    I hope that makes some sense, my brain is refusing to cooperate.
    I once again want to apologise if this is not appropriate.

    Matto = madman (according to Google translate). Because I am a madman xD
    Corvo= raven
    Raven because there is a raven figurine in my living room that I say "nevermore" to as I pass it by
