So I'm considering changing to my irl name (Tiffany) but when I first joined the server, the name Emma just popped into my head so I was like "I'll choose Emma, it sounds nice." That's how the name Emma was born!

I chose Bella in the first place because was the name of the main character of a story I wrote a few years ago (OK a fanfic) and I really liked the character. But what didn't remeber was Bellatrix and the name Bella became too much now I'm Rey because I love Star Wars.

one of my emails is judiciouspandemonium I wanted to do iareduck once for something, but it wasnt available so i became iarepandemonium, Then people started calling me pande, some people thought it was panda, but i dont like it refering to a panda, & some people thought i was a guy, so I made it Pandette.  It became Pandetta so it didnt ping me in irc.

Truency: @Fancepants will remember this. Trying to pick a name for World of Warcraft years and years ago - original spelling was taken. Change it up.

 

Nomsy: Came here, wanted to have a cute name and Truency <Lastname> did not work; and I loved saying OM NOM NOM. Now everyone calls me Nomsy.

Well it just popped into my head before I was gonna do my IRL name but I just decided to hide it (because lots of people pronounce it wrong ) ;D  I think farina is much easier!

I just like the name Mira. I discovered it after looking in a Larin dictionary (Homeschool) and seeing that Mira Quedem means Magic in Latin.
