When I first came to the forum one thing that marveled me was  the different usernames displaying. Then I asked my friend and he told me that, it is to hide identity.

And a thought came to me that even though it is to hide identity and they chose the name, there must be a reason of selecting that username.

So, why do you chose that username?
I chose this name because it was the first name that came to my mind.
and my name also means " first " in the language of my country.
although this is not my real name but this is a very good name. Smiley

I really don't have a specific reason as to why this is what I came up with when I created this account years ago. This is how it goes, I visited the forum and trying to register an account and I am not good at choosing good username for myself which I think really hard to pick one but I wasn't able to choose a good one. In the end, Nakamura is what came to my mind and just add two numbers and viola this is my username until now (Som cases where other forum userd have different name on this forum which is granted by Theymos and yet the username is still the same and only the name that is changed.

Privacy because that is what I advocate for.  G is the mystery.

I chose this name because I wanted something different while also explaining who and what I am.  And, it is futuristic.  Wrote a reply on this thread thinking my explanation sounds cool.  Now I think it is the lamest of all.

Apart from the fact of hiding their identity I think those name actually have a relationship with their account purpose or business purposes beside what really matters is not username but your importance and impact on the forum

That might be true for some users and not all. They're some person here who chose their user randomly without having any meaning behind the username while some that stumbled across the forum and just wanted to register and account just to check it out but later got to stay in the forum most of them have no real explanation as to why they came up with their username.
And same also apply to me if I'm asked now for a valid reason why I chose "cantsay" during my registration I still won't be able to give any. Although I have come to take a likeness to the name.

The real reason I chose this username was because 'Leader of the flat earth Reptilians' was taken.  Those who know though...  Well, they know. 


Image shown above is not an actual self-portrait, but an artist depiction of what I may look like.  Some details such as the addition of underwear have been added to make this image safe for the forum and keep from fostering jealousy amongst the less well hung.  I also admittedly have a better manicure as it makes it easier to type on the keyboard.  Anybody got any lotion?

Username choice in Bitcoin Talk forum is not that important, you just choose a name that can be simple but it is better not to analyze too much because it is not necessary, it is not something that you have to give your original name.

Hmm, Sometimes it's too funny for some members. When I read them one by one I really enjoy them. Basically, for those who are the well-known persons in this forum. Smiley

Is this the thread?

Usernames are simply used to distinguish people more clearly. In my case, the reason for the username is bounded to my native language. The name means "Strong Man", the 01 affix to it means "number 1". I believe that only the strong can triumph when it comes to bitcoin, hence the name.

So in my case, I used this my username without any reason but I added the last 1819 which indicates an internal connection between every letter and its word. Though I don't want to share directly the reason Smiley

 On most of the social networks, I make use of my real name, so when I got on here, I opted for something different. Like way way different from what I was used to picking and to be frank, a friend just suggested it to me and at the time, I was repulsed by it because of what it actually means. But I later got around to be cool with it, because if there's anything I've learned, it's never to judge a book by its cover and cool things come out of crazy things.

I have a reason why I don't use my real name on my Bitcointalk account because my name is too familiar, seriously it's so familiar that if I use that name it's not available, someone already uses it. finally I had to use the current name Zaki12 because the name was available.

It's so familiar where I live that many people use that name, there is one neighbor whose nickname is the same as my nickname, it just so happens that his house is next to my parents' house, exactly.

Something unpleasant happened, the wrong target (gossip) a lot of unpleasant gossip was shown to me until it sounded in my ears because I felt I had done nothing wrong, especially since I didn't like gossiping with my neighbors, of course the accusations were not true. it wasn't me but my next door neighbor. It's really not wearing once have a familiar name. Cheesy

Here's my weird uname with weird story behind it.
I was using avatars bearded babies, coz I like beard and I was a newbie (baby) here (and in crypto in general), so the perfect combination and something unique, no one esle used before.
I like to shock people so the name just came naturally  Grin

There is no how you must have used bearded baby avatar in the forum without first registering in the forum.  The story does not relate such to me. Unless you were using a bearded baby avatar in other groups or social platforms and go accustomed to it before signing up here.



KingsDen - My real name has something to do with Kings. The home of the Lions is called den. Then the home of Kings should be KingsDen.
Only the brave visits the lions den. Guess the calibre of people that visit the KingsDen.

I honestly find this thread funny but I can answer you like this, do you think Satoshi Nakamoto is a name or a pseudonym? And what makes you think that what you will choose is the truth?

If am to register on any platform newly, I find a way to get my username from my surroundings or someone I am with at the moment. I think my username "Marykeller'' came as a result of whom I am with when registering in the forum. Her name was Mary, and her nickname was Keller. At first, when registering, I enter Mary as my username, but I was informed that the name " Mary" is already existing, I had to add Keller to make it unique. That's how I arrived at Marykeller as a username

When I first joined the forum I decided to use this user name because it makes reference to how people have called me in other web pages and corners of the internet (I also like to keep user names short), I wanted to have a similar user name but at the same time I wanted it to sounds a bit sillier. The pronunciation it is supposed to be the Spanish one not the English one, by the way.

Tbh, I don't want my current username because it was generated from random thoughts, is there any particular privilege to change username without waiting long or at least remove some characters? I saw some users managed to change theirs without waiting long, and some just waiting for an uncertain application.
Sorry to hear that you are not happy with your current username, just like you, mine does not have any special meaning to me, and i just generated it based on what i was randomly thinking when i was registering my account, i am not bothered about it in anyway and maybe you shouldn't too. As long as your username isn't doxxing you in anyway i don't think you should be worried too much. If you have not sent a message to theymos for a change of name, then maybe you should try and see if luck is on your side, find a good reason why you want him to change your name, but if he ignores your request, just move on bruh.

When I came to the forum, I wasn't sure if I was staying. So, I snagged yahoo due to my email provider I used at the time and 62278 for my birthday. Here we are years later and apparently, I have decided to stick around for a bit.

I did this because my astrologer told me that if I keep this username on this forum, other members will address me as "Dear Sir".
