I had to make a new name for the then brand new game: league of legends. I was high af and came up with this. Inspired by boss names in wow I guess.

I used the username blackandred56, until one day I used blackrose56, and since then it's blackrose56 or roserose56. I just liked rose.
A resemblance to Ming the Merciless in Flash Gordon. It's my nickname amongst my friends and round the pub (some of whom don't know my birth name) to the point you could go into my local and ask for the Emperor and someone would point you in the eight direction. So when I signed up online, it made sense to use this name and it has since became my nom-de-plume and is, in effect, my Common Law name.

Keys on a qwerty keyboard.
Huge fan of GWAR and always used their lead singers name for online accounts.
Can’t wait until some internet rando types “GWAR” into a search engine and watches a video… fantastic.

I like penguins and 90s nostalgia. It's a Legends of the Hidden Temple fake team name.
Could I have gone for the alliteration? Perhaps. But Purple Parrots already existed. And I don't like pink.
I like popcorn and may or may not be royalty..
I just really like the character.
Typing and limited clicking
Combined a few numbers that are meaningful to me, turned it into hex, and here we are.

If by that you mean the URL one, it's a combination of different anime characters, but if by that you mean the one you see on comments, it's short for the one I've had at birth. You can change how it looks in the account settings.
It's still just random.
Took the windows shortcut "Control-Alt-Delete", removed the delete and trol, and replaced the c with a k

A sundry, torn asunder.
It's the name of my sona, as well as the species. "Arx" came from one of my previous usernames which was railroad related (I'm a railfan, and went by RxR). My friends started calling me Rx, which then became Arx. "CyberWolf" comes from my fursona being cyberpunk themed, with cybernetic augmentation. Hence, Cyber Wolf.
I was playing a silly game online and I was so good at it I was basically stomping other players. Tac tac is how we describe the sound of walking loudly in Slovene (there are other ways to describe it: lomastiti, topotati...) and so I combined my name (Gregor) with tac tac and GregorTacTac became my username almost everywere.
Mine is inspired by a comic book character I actually got to know through a video game I had tried on my first PC several years ago now.
