    Because I couldn't use my username from anywhere else.. so I just kinda turned my first name backwards. I don't care much for it and I wish I was more creative

    It always frustrated me that someone beat me to it as a twitter handle and ever since then I've been looking for an excuse to use it.

    As for how I came up with it, a Rawrzilla is my spirit animal. No it isn't, and there's no such thing but I thought it summed up the silliness of my existence perfectly. Rawr.

    To put said silliness into perspective, here's my original post, with a bunch of crap I typed that didn't make it into the post but that I'm showing you anyway, thus defeating the purpose of leaving them out:

    At the time of making an account, I was listening to Sleepwalking by Peter Hollens. I was also exhausted from school, so it seemed appropriate

    It's my actual first name.

    Oh wow, of course. Why didn't I think of this before?

    Because I'm changing my name to Kira. It's 200% more fabulous. :icon_bigg

    Seemed appropriate for here. That, and if I used my regular username everyone would know who I was.

    i thought it was a Hetalia reference (aka my OTP) :/

    ---------- Post added 9th Nov 2014 at 09:06 PM ----------

    its one of the most frustrating things in the world and according to my parents i am frustrating. It actually sounds like my name combined with someones. the 413 is from Homestuck (webcomic) that started 4/13/09. 413 is a big number all together in it! [did anybody else realize that its 413 and there are 4 13yr olds playing Sburb?]

    I joined ec because I was questioning myself and needed some help from here and advices about my crush. At that point of time i was so deeply in love with her and she's all i think about, therefore the name.

    I KNEW IT!!!

    Fellow pokemon player here. Red is my original and favorite.

    ---------- Post added 9th Nov 2014 at 10:58 PM ----------

    I came on here because I was questioning my sexuality as well. Still kinda am. But I chose a name that I don't use for anything else. And because bacon rules all.

    Kind of roundabout and obscure twewy reference, plus alliteration. The game has a big emphasis on music: major scale/band major. And a maximum power attack with a certain character has them dropping the moon on the enemies (there's also a cool moon quote from another character). Plus it sounds cool in general.

    But POKEMON? That's awesome.

    At the time of making this account, I felt like a broken doll.. Crushed and cracked and destroyed..

    Since then the name just stuck.

    My birth name looks and sounds most similar to Ray, and I some day hope to change my name to Ray because I think it would be easier on my parents and family to switch to, plus I like the name.

    It's named after a bright star (and mother of the Seven Sisters in Greek mythology, which is also the name of the star cluster containing Pleione).
