So I have been seeing a ton of amazing usernames. And I was curious as to why ppl picked it, and if there was a story or anything symbolic behind it.

For instance, my name, miswimmy, is pronounced (me- swimmy) because I swim. That is one of my favorite sports and something that I could not live without. I race for USA swiming year round.

What is the explanation behind your name??

Didge is my nickname. Didgee sounds better and happier than Didge. I also like the long 'e' sound.

Eeyou are the Cree people who live in northern Quebec. My paternal side is Eeyou, so I wanted my username to reflect my heritage.
Thanks for this!

Mine name comes from two sides of me. Poison came from when I was looking through facebook and a picture of the "eeveelutions" came up and I liked the way it looked plus the somewhat dark meaning of the name. Amoeba is just a fun word to say. Therefore I am the PoisonAmoeba.
Thanks for this!

Beauflow....

it has two meanings to me..

when I was doing my name when signing up, i was thinking beautiful flower, however me being me-- I can not name myself that due to I am not that-- only partially.. so Not Quite a Beautiful flower is what i was thinking, and smooshed to two together.

Also I had a cat named Beau, and he got out --Beau flow away... I still miss him so even though I have another cat that is reaching a year now with him...

Also-- Here are two past link to others if you guys are interested of others' names that have answered this... though as seeing some of us are answering again but just in case you are bored lol

Perplex
"to cause to be puzzled or bewildered over what is not understood or certain; confuse mentally"

It made sense to me that my name have something to do with perplex, I'm rattled by the uncertainty of everything.. fearful, paranoid & anxious, it all seemed to fit with describing my mental health.
However, I feel perhaps my username would have been better suited had I written Perplexed rather than Perplexingly, because I feel that this name is more appropriate, for it describes what I am... perplexed.. confused mentally..
