This is legit a really good move. Not too common, so you need a nickname because there will always be five children with the same amen on the playground. But also common enough that they will very rarely have to spell it out.
I wanna have two usernames, one for personal and one for online so I don’t want people to be able to google search my username and see everything. I do like this username though lol.
Nothing, I just want another username that I use to separate my personal accounts (like discord, Snapchat, etc.) from my online accounts (lemmy, Reddit, etc.)
It’s wild. I got here by way of your awesome pic but dreamed last night that Martin Luther King, Jr. said “we must judge communities based on the content of their characters and not by the prejudices we have against their instances”.

Naming things is the hardest part of everything.
That's why I'm never going to have children.

Just pick the 15th most common name of the previous year. Then your kid will be fine.

Depends on what you'll be using it for. ie: 'UrGranny' could be fun for games but it might not work as intended on OF.
Kolanaki@yiffit.net · 12 pts · 2y
"UrGranny" would definitely work for OF. Literally anything would probably work for OF. People are freaks.

Just toss some stuff you enjoy together. It's not like you only ever get one- I've had a few over the years.
Mine is just a combo of two mythological figures that also have to do with stars/outer space. I like Sci-Fi, and I like mythologies.

I originally tried to just use Orion, and it was almost always taken.
So SolOrion was originally a fallback choice that just kind of took over.
