So we have a thread to compliment people's avatars and signatures, and I thought a thread for usernames would be a good idea.

Mod note: Comments and chatter from this thread have been moved here. Sorry about the inevitable confusion.

Cool.

Then can I give a shout out to everyone who has at least part of their user name in Tolkien's Elven? Hurray you!!

Hurray for all you Princesses and Ladies! You are classic and original! *claps*

I have to say, I love Sir Emeth's username because it is completely unique. If there is another Sir Emeth Mimetes out there, I'll eat my hat.

I also really like Inesdar's. If it wasn't his character already, I'd nab it for my own charries.

*laughs at the Anne of Green Gables "eat your hat" remark *

I love White Raven, actually. The name has such a strong essence.

I think Sir Luke of Washougal gets the award for the most-frequently-changed username! I need a score-card to keep track of him Though, Sir Phillip of Valor switched back-and-forth quite a few times awhile back.

I love the usernames Bethany Faith and ~Evenstar~. I'm sure I'll have more to add!

I think that Sir Arien, Guy of the Rounded Table has the craziest name.

Woohoo! Thanks!

I like it when users have names of their characters or ones they've made up. I think it's really neat to see the different styles. ^^

Yay! Somebody likes my real-err username!

I've always liked Neil of Erk since it sounds so...cool-ish. And I'm rather fond of Duchess Daisy too. 'Tis sunshiney and medieval-ish.

*Chuckles*

Yes, Neil's user is one of those that jumps out at you.

I like Airianna Valenshia, because it's creative and it sounds beautiful.
I agree with Seer about Luke -it was okay as long as he kept the 'Luke', then he changed it to McGyver, and I was lost. Then he changed it back, now he's changed it again...
And I like Aeleknight.

I love Ophelia MirZA Shaye. It's so... awesome. I also love:

Riniel jasmina

Danko Sandai

TerraRandom

Lady Alina Isra

Raven of the Wood

He changed it again

Thanks Green!

I really like "DawnBringer."

For some reason, "Bethany Faith" fits Bethy's essence really well. Actually, So do Airi's, Sir Emeth's, Vanya's, and Luke's, as well as so many others.

What's the deal with names fitting completely with a person's essence? It happens every time, seems.

It does, doesn't it! Yea I love Airi's name.

I'd imagine the reason my name fits me well is because I've had it all my life.

Though the reason everybody's name seems to fit their essence so well might be because you always see them under that name, and so, after awhile, you start to associate that name with that essence... But that's just a guess. I'm probably wrong.

*Chuckles*

What came first, the name or the essence?
Anyway, I like Green Mist's name because green mist is such a cool image.

Can't you do Andrew Eruheran?

@Jay: Heh, maybe. But the names don't really match. 'Sides, Eruheran is still in my siggy and I'm fine if people still call me that

@Elly: I logged in this morning and thought for a split second, "Andrew, what ML is Andrew?!"

Andrew

*wonders if Del will like 'Taylor E. Morgan' instead of 'Elly of Zoriah'* I've temporarily changed my name.

Thank you Aldara, and thank you Aemi, and thank you Elanor. I am very fond of the name. It does somehow fit my essence.

Ok, I have deleted a lot of posts from this thread, per Hannah's request. See Hannah's post earlier in the thread here. The purpose of this thread is to simply announce your username change; therefore if you like the new username and want to discuss how much you like it, or any reaction you may have to the username change, please do so in an appropriate thread or in PM.

Thank you!

Cool. And distinctive. As soon as I heard the username I knew exactly who it was.

That was quick. Question, is there a process for me to change my name? I noticed that it didn't take Bebe (Ruby) much time... Did I miss something?

Sea- Not really. You can go to the UCP and change your name any time (As long as it's not for chat room pranks, or what is discouraged as stated in the rules) and just let us know in this thread.

Oh. Thanks~!

Does Matt count?

I can't really say on that one. But I think we all know who he is.

Except that you mispelled it and it says "Nimetes."

I caught that. Insomnia kills my typing and checking skills.

Yes ma'am.

I take everything very seriously, even if it doesn't appear that way.

Everyone is putting Mimetes in their name. What's going on? Are you guys family?

Um, where did y'all learn all this Hebrew?

I got Rin to do some searching and find definitions for me. (Don't worry, I am not actually fluent in Hebrew.)

I'm proud of you, Twin.

Thanks, Azlyn.

Me too! It's very pretty, Dairy. I love the word Shalom.

Thanks, Elanor. Yes, I like the word shalom. It does have a peaceful feeling to it when you say it.

I'm very glad that you've changed your name, Dairy! Same goes for you, Leena.

Not that you all need thanks, but thank you. This is a blessing.

Wow.

Thank you, Caeli; and thanks for the indepth post explaining why.

It shows that you thought carefully about the change, and that makes it even more special, I think.

*has since edited post to include the link I meant to put in there.* Thank you, I did think about it a lot, and was really glad that I found this post because Google was not being my friend when it came to searching for Hebrew, or Greek words...

Wow Caeli... that was amazing. Thankyou so much for sharing that with us. Changing my name was a big thing for me too, and I put a lot of emphasis on meanings as well, so I very much appreciate your post, and your name. Thankyou for taking it on. May we all, through the darkest times, yet praise Him.
