What is the Meaning Behind Your Username?

My username used to be "AvatarFlygon", and my current one is just a shortened version of that. As for why it was AvatarFlygon... well, I liked Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Flygon was my favorite Pokemon, and when you like two things a lot you sometimes want to mash them together to make one giant mega-great thing. I learned the hard way that that was a bad idea, though; I mean, if you like green beans, and you also like chocolate cake, mixing them up isn't going to create some kind of mystical ambrosia, but instead something very disappointing... Thus, I changed my username from AvatarFlygon to Avagon.

Sort of a combination of a few things, when I joined I was really hyped for Hyrule Warriors and I liked the design of Wizzro so I wanted something that kinda reflected ancient evil. Also I like Poes.

Well, my original name on here was TSter The Great, which is a name I started using everywhere when I was like 12 and got tired of it. I couldn't think of what to change it to here, because I wanted something meaningful.

Over time, I developed a liking to putting the :ezlo: emote on top of others to make it look like they were wearing Ezlo as a hat. My favourite combination was this one:

:ezlo:
:mellow:

I then realized that Mellow Ezlo kinda sounds like a song I like (Mellow Yellow), so I changed my usertitle to it. Didn't want it as my username though.

Then I started putting more thought into it and realized that it would fit me very well. For one thing, I consider myself to be a lot like Ezlo personality wise, and he's actually one of my favourite characters in the series. I then realized that despite that, I tend to be really mellow in real life, especially when presented with difficult situations. So combine all those and voila, Mellow Ezlo was born.

EDIT: btw Ari, you didn't tell us what your username means! :right:

My favourite Zelda game is A Link to the Past, so I named myself after the Book of Mudora. I was originally known on the forums as HEY! LISTEN!, but decided it was time for a change.

It's my name! A shorter version of my name, actually.

My full name is Ariana, but my close friends and family call me Ari. :) It's also part of my stage name for shows. :)

Pretentiousness.

That's the short answer.

My Disqus username, which I only really used to comment on ZD articles, was "EsteemedAssociate," for the sole reason that I thought it rolled off the tongue nicely. When I joined here, I went to enter it as my name, but it wouldn't fit-- so I spent the next 10 minutes racking my brain for synonyms for both words... And I ended up here; in the process sacrificing any fluidity or catchiness which it'd previously had. Don't know what I was thinking... Oops.

A friend of mine nicknamed me kitten many years ago, so it just ended up being my username. I'm also a cat-person, so it suits me. The miss in front of it is mainly because after a while more and more sites tended to already have a "kitten", so adding the miss just made the odds better that it wasn't taken :P

My username meaning is pretty much easy. Link from Legend of Zelda. Nerd because I like to have knowledge of my favorite video games and 09 because I like the number 9 with 0 next to it. And it came to life, Linknerd09.

Heh, well, I was going to be 'Starlight Skyloftian' like I am over on ZU, but that was too long so I kinda just put in what I was thinking at the time.

My username is taken from a famous icon in American culture. That's right, the one and only John "Bud" Hillerich, the man responsible for the Louisville Slugger brand of baseball bats.
