TAG GAME GUYS

TAG YOUR MOOTS AND MAKE THEM EXPLAIN THEIR USERNAMES LORE

Starting with me:

Hyyl18 because when i was youngest i had a group in a random app with some friends and i didnt knew qhat username to use so i decided to create one with things i used to read since we were talking abt fanfic in this group so: Hot Yaoi Yuri Lemon +18 stuff (i was in my dirty era dont dare to judge me). Hyyl18 thats it. Now i use it everywhere yay

@patroclus-is-the-bigger-person @b4rty-r0s13r-w1ll-fck-y0ur-m0m @cuntyteardrop @glassesgirlies @leninthestarlight @bardorsomethinglikethat anyone else who wanna join tbh yay

patroclus-is-the-bigger-person

so I was just finished with reading song of achilles, highly recommend, made me sob, and achilles pissed me off, like the pride was mental, so I thought that patroclus, my king, deserved some well deserved love and appreciation. The bigger person part is in no way at all a tribute to me because I am the petty bitch you will ever have the displeasure of coming across

@bardorsomethinglikethat @achillesfinch14 @bartdrawssometimes

bardorsomethinglikethat

@hyyl18

basically bards are important in my book series, and that was inspired from the bard yaskier from the Witcher, and I feel like it was something he'd say about himself so I went with that.

Your guy's lore is hilarious btw 🤣

violetrosiecookiesleepydragon

Hmmmmmmmmmmm Prob because in Roblox every one called me Violet but I added the Rosie because it was the name of my dog plushie that I lost in 4th grade and cookie because I like cookies so that's why I picked VioletRosieCookie :]

Open tags bc I'm lazy heh Violet Out ><

Fuck mine has lore...

So my.first username was wendigoweirdo but someone told me that it was offensive to native American tribes so I changed it to willow weirdo. And then I just felt like adding the daydreamer because that's was I am :3

@hrrrrt-of-mxsic1128 @dazaisfavbitch @thatgurlrose @sage0clock @jacksfoxevangeline

jacksfoxevangeline

back when my username was @/pipermcleandaugterofaphrodite, I saw a post by a Cherokee person talking about how much they hate Piper and that she's not representation because she's stereotypes with legs (fair enough). I'm white, so I have no right to have myself connected to people my ancestors hurt, so I changed my user to what it is now because I'm also Evangeline Fox fictionkin

alright so my first username was skzfangirl143 because i was a skz ult back then and 143 from their song case 143 !! eventually i started stanning more groups and realized SKZfangirl143 didn't cover it so i changed it to written-by-music because i do spend a lot of time listening to music and a lot of the time music and my mood do correlate!

soda-sprite-deactivated20260519

thx for the tag kayy!! <3

i used to be 'grape-soda-and-impish-behaviour' because i was drinking grape soda a lot and one of my main ocs at the time was called imp then i deactivated and came back as 'soda-imp' cause it was shorter yet still matched my purple theme and mood ^^

and then i changed it to 'soda-sprite' because my theme was sort of greenish with a fairycore vibe to it and my mood was more 'spritely' but i still liked soda and also still wanted to be recognisable to my moots so i kept the soda bit and i haven't changed it since!! :D

i've been thinking of changing it to soda-pop [what some of my moots call me and also the 'pop' bit matches my party theme] though... unsure! :]

potatoanarchist

ayo thx for the tag ( rant under the cut >:> )

Okay, so my real username wasn't actually supposed to be potatoanarchist, I made that up on a whim and I have a mind to change it. It was supposed to be Xaosix, and for a very personal reason.

To keep it as simple as possible for you, someone I knew died a while back. I had known them for my entire life--seriously, they were around since I was a baby. We had a nickname for them and that's why the six that's apart of my username. I'm not specifying what the nickname was.

The other part of my username is a reference to my mom's name. No, her name doesn't start with X. It starts with J, but I've decided to keep it as X to make a little XO sort of w/ the Xaosix. In case you can't see it

XaOsix

The XO is for both her and the person.

If I end up changing my user or online name twenty times and twenty times again, this is something that will always remain the same. It just...hits a bit different when people call me that instead of potato.

As for potatoanarchist...yeah, the reason is a tad sad, too. I've had this...mentality for the past few years that has proven to be incredibly detrimental. And I've always tried to get rid of it, like an anarchist would their government, but it's always felt too small. Like a potato. But then I smiled and got the idea that maybe I could make somebody smile with that username, a small thing ( a potato ) lightening their mood ( anarchist ). So I kept it.

You'll soon notice a lot of the decisions I make are born from personal experiences/ideas.

Deepest apologizes if this just depressed you and ruined the mood of this entire tag game 😭 extra sorry if you were already tagged I really don't know

im gonna start with my old one which is alot better

My old username was caine-the-chair-smacker

Why?

Because In third grade I was um.. lets say a chaotic child and was not on the right pills for My ever so present ADHD. This was the second year I was on a med like that and the perscription changed. My modu wasn't handling it too well so I was a 3-4 foot ball of blonde anger. My third grade teacher must have done /said something to piss me off. So using all might of a third grader i had.. i picked up on of those those chairs ( there was no desk on them) and SMACKED my third grade teacher with it. I got in trouble and she hated me after that but I wasn't moved to a different teacher which was weird.

My new one is just my name and rambles because I like to ramble

So yeah. You know what I did in third grade

feralgoatman

Oh dear, my username has a lot of lore behind it as I’ve based it off of my OC who’s book I’ve been planning and writing for about 3 years.

Feral has changed to ‘Farrell’ to make it an actual name, but I kept the simple ‘Feral’ for my usernames for the fun of it, and it has ‘goat’ because Farrell is a satyr.

I would go into the lore of my character, but that’s… a lot… to write so… yeah

@hotflatwaffle @lindwyrmrelinquished @j-pin-stuff @s0f-arg2010 @entostick

(I tagged all the people who’s usernames make me curious… ofc I know the story behind HotFlatWaffle, but it’s fun)

s0f-arg2010

Mine is simple, Sof is the short for my name (sofia) and arg is cause of Argentina, I wont say what the numbers mean tho

eyesore-boi

OoO thank you for the tag!! I absolutely got lore for mine! >:D

It actually goes ALLLL the way back to my Amino days, and for those of you who don't know, every Community you join on Amino allows you to make a different username for it, so initially I just ended up picking my favorite characters from each fandom and making my account that, BUT THEN- It was (funnily enough) when I joined the Markiplier Community that I decided to change that! Think it was cause there was already so many other accounts who did the same thing and it'd be confusing- So! It took me a while of workshopping other names and revisiting even old ones I used to go by, BUT THEN, I had a revelation-

Y'see, no matter the fandom I was in, my base account had this GIF as a pfp because I just thought it looked cool and spooky:

And when I saw that, I decided to try and do some word play with it, and after some "research" (aka Google), I found the term "Eyesore", so decided to give it a shot. And since then...it's stuck with me for over 6 years now XD

But for good reason! That name gave me a good feeling of having a theme with my account, felt like a distinct name (makes sense tho it literally does mean ugly lmao), and even helped me settle on a persona after many iterations!! Thus the eyeball head dude seen in my pfp and doodles, which his design is based off of that GIF! And ey, in all honesty, couldn't be happier with the one I picked!!

I only end up adding "boi" at the end of it cause just "eyesore" is usually already taken, so it's a good addition cause ha ha 2016 terminology, and ey least it does roll off the tongue fine enough X'D

But ye thank you for letting me lore dump...now onto my friends >:]

So when I was but a young chronically online lass while YouTube was still like shiny I chose ✨️Dark Rose✨️. Because any time I made a self insert character or oc they'd be named Rose since yknow. I was a child and not super original. And I wanted something edgy to reflect the dark soul I had at the age of 11 💀. (I also think it might've had something to do with darkiplier but I'm not 100% on that)

But obviously migrating to other sites that name would be taken. It was like around 2018 when I started using Darky Parky because it was close and sounded really cute and silly. But that iteration of that name was taken on Tumblr so I went by darkie-parkie for a long time but now that I'm an adult I didn't feel comfy people using the first part of my url as a nickname 😬😬. So now I'm here with parkie-parkie!

@roxfox5 @strangeguitar @amee-racle @darkcoriander

roxfox5

Uhm well...I started my online days on roblox. I went by a much longer version of this username. Which I am not putting here because I still have the account. I found tumblr by a friend who had an account, I would spend days looking at the art without an account. But then one day I got smacked with a login wall and decided, "Y'know what, I'm on here often enough, I'll make an account'. So, I took my roblox username, shortened it to 'roxfox5' and thus this account was born. I use this username or ones similar to it on a lot of things, Discord included. This is just because all my friends knew me as 'Rox'. @paper-possum-party-pal

paper-possum-party-pal

Originally I wanted to use Obscuriosity as my tag name but it was already taken, so I had to come up with something else. I wanted my name to reflect that I liked art and animals (and that my favorite animal is the opossum), and liked paper-possum, but I believe that had been taken too, so I added pal and then party to keep the alliteration and because the image of a party ready art opossum was just so cute to me.

In summary, my tag name is a collection of things I like! Thanks for the tag!

@antimattter-eel, @britishbiscuits, @gigi-the-bear, @itzgcdraws, @intrinsically-inclined, @imaketrashart, @lexumpy, @roses-field, @remsterden, @vampiirex,

lexumpy

gdbdfvhbdvn that's something I wasn't expecting to get tagged in x'D But okay... I'll tell you the story behind "Lexumpy". pose dramatically

It's been years now, but before Lexumpy I need to talk about the one before that... I used to go by "Toony Pumpkin King" simply because I'm into cartoons and I love pumpkins <3. Yet as I was growing into a better version of my old self, I realised this name was way too long, so I needed to find something shorter that I'd like and that people would remember more easily! I went with something that has a part of my name and a bit of my old one! so "Lex" is for my name (Alex) and "umpy" is what's left of the old one (the ump is for pumpkin and the Y is supposed to be for the toony, but it's actually just here to make it look pretty lmao). And I stuck with this one since! It's a little silly, short, and sweet to me :D My inner child is still very present, as you can see /silly

Thank you so much for the tag hehehe!!

@neytirie-kurun @thenamesmobu @ember-nby

OOHHH OKAY, an interesting chain to be in👀👀

Aight, so here's the backstory on how I got my Tumblr username:

Initially, this blog was meant to only stalk and reblog posts that I like on Tumblr and it went by a previous username that I now forgot about. I actually made this blog back in around 2020-2021 but I wasn't fully active and started posting my own stuff until 2023.

So, I had freshly migrated from Instagram and wanted to fully commit to posting on Tumblr. I had no idea what to name my new username, so I went with a simple greeting; "The name's [insert name]" hence "thenames-" part in my username.

The name "Mobu" was actually made the exact same time I made my Tumblr username. It's a combination of 2 names I go/went by, one of which I absolutely do not go by EVER now. I initially went by a different name that was my first online name that I made when I was in middle school, but old that name is now reserved for my old online friends only (it was a common online name and I wanted to be distinct in this new site, my old friends know that I go by Mobu to new folks now).

Bonus sona backstory: As some of you might know, my art sona is of a cockatoo with square eyes wearing a gray cap. The cockatoo sona was actually from my first pfp where it was that image of a cockatoo eating a croissant on top of a sign while the square eyes and gray cap are from my irl wardrobe.
