So I’m seeing so many usernames of [some letters][name], or [word]_[word] or X[something][animal]X which always begs the question:
What’s the story behind your username?
And begin!
[hr]
For example:
I used to be YoshiBoy13, because [favourite mariokart character][gender][favourite number]
Now I’m Asmodean_, because [character from favourite book][underscore because just Asmodean was already taken]
jmvvana goes along the lines of my initials. I’ll break it down for you.
Joseph
Michael
Vanacore
Last 4 letters are first four letters of my last name.
Well, I have always loved tigers hence the ‘Tiger’ and I’ve always managed to be the organized friend and always put in charge hence the ‘Queen’ in my name. Queen + Tiger = XQueenTigerX
My first username was “swimgirl23b”. I liked to swim and I’m a girl. My other ones just have my name with a “_” before my name or after. “Clauliflower” came from Nommy because he calls me clauiflower sometimes and I liked the name. 
william first name
harrison middle name
Bilbo -everyone calls me that lol
RJBud1 is from my name and mah dog and a number.
RJ
Buddy

Right, here it goes!
The moment everyone’s been waiting for…
Sambob - my dad’s nickname for me! (dunno why! XD)
_ - just cos!
12 - my age when I made the account
My first username was Nams3537. Nams cos my name is Naomi so that somehow became my nickname at school (I hate it now, so please don’t call me that). 3537 because that was the number Moshi Monsters suggested for my account XD way back in the day when I was like 10 years old.
Now I’m NotApplicable, because I kinda like this British artist called Example. Not only do I like his songs, but I also share my birthday with him. One day I found out his initials are E.G. - hence why he calls himself “Example”. My initials are N.A., and this is often used on official forms when something can’t be applied (N/A - Not Applicable). I liked the name, so it’s kinda stuck.
On Steam and Kik etc, I’m known as NotApplicableMC. This is because SkyDoesMinecraft’s username is SkythekidRS. The RS stands for Runescape, his favourite game when he was younger. Since Minecraft is my favourite game, I have MC
On Wattpad, I am known as Mitchs_Microwave because I used to be a huge fan of BajanCanadian (his real name is Mitch). His microwave beeps every 15 minutes, so it’s often heard in his videos. Long story short, I was in a chat room on Chatzy and it was just a random name I came up with, mixed in with other ideas. I have many other names on obscure parts of the internet and in my personal life, but those are/were my main ones.
On steam, I am TheBinaryMan, but that was taken when I wanted to take it over to minecraft, so I did the obvious: translated it into Latin.
Latin doesn’t have a “the”, so no “the” in mc name
Vir = man (so people call me man for short, must reflect my real-life manliness [/sarcasm])
Binary is derived from Binarus, meaning “of two parts”
I suppose that technically makes me “man of two parts” though.
AGx9836O - A very, VERY, V E R Y old youtube channel I had
AGx - Just simple. (AG is my initials)
TractorCam - Part of another project that I’ll tell you guys more about soon (If i’m allowed to promote it XD)
Here we go…
We begin with 6-year-old Ferf, who was quite the charmer. Now, 6-year-old Ferf was a big fan of the PBS Kids channel. Eventually, the advertisements for the wonderful website, pbskids.org, tempted him, and he just had to go and play some of those Arthur and Cyberchase games. Little Ferf realized that if he wanted his stats and progress to save, he would need to make an account (I already had an email at the time cause why not). Several seconds of buttonmashing later, the first iteration of ferfer313 was created. I continued to use this name for other things, but it wasn’t until a ways in the future where it began to really matter.
Now, two years later, 8-year-old Ferf went to his neighbor’s house, where he discovered an early version of a wonderful game called Minecraft. Ferf and his neighbor killed a few spiders and made a sky walk out of glass, and overall, had a very enjoyable afternoon. A few months later, over at a friends house, I first explored the multiplayer elements of the game, and spent a bit of time on a server called Ultra, which was a major inspiration for my early building style. After all this exposure to the game, the second iteration of ferfer313 was created.
I started by playing mostly on Classic servers, and I was at another friend’s house when I discovered PCB, looking for some server where I could build in a city. PCB had me hooked, due to the niceness of the members and the impressive buildings. I can thank Petroliam, fatso12321, and JamesMX for helping me out that first day. I continued to play on the classic server for a while, and I bought the full version on January 1, 2012. I transitioned over to the main server July 2012. I played on both servers for a while, using TheDukeOfUkes (an ode to my love for the ukulele) as a Classic alt. Classic began to die down, so I committed myself to the main server.
Lots of offs and ons occured with the main server, and I played on some other servers time to time. I played other games and used other websites that required accounts, and used a variety of different names based on the situation, one of my favorites being a short-lived Armor Games account called ForThePeople.
I was on break from PCB on February 4th, 2015, the day that name changes were announced. It wasn’t until the 16th (2 days after my birthday) that I was able to change my username, and the spaz you all know and love, MrFerf was born. The username was meant to represent maturing as a person. I chose a more professional name, actually using proper capitalization, as well as a shortened version of ferfer (most people called me Fer or Ferf anyways). I had the name in mind since name changes were announced in January of the same year, and used it for a couple of other things prior, and continue to use it today for other websites.
I came back to PCB a bit after that, and people sort of got used to it, before I left again, and rejoined at the end of September. I’ve been here to stay since then, and I don’t plan on leaving or changing my username any time soon.
So there’s my username history tied in with a VERY brief history of myself.
Cheers.

p.s.
In case you were curious, neither ferfer313 nor MrFerf was intended to resemble any names of myself, pets, favorite characters, or anything like that, though it does share minimal coincidental resemblance to my middle name, Felder.
Manning [first name] = Mann
Mariah[because I’m apparently a huge diva IRL] = riah
Mann+riah=
= Mannriah
WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?
Seriously!
Why the change in person?
You start with little 3rd person ferf, and then suddenly you are Ferf!
Make your mind up Ferf, are you Ferf or not?

My dad calls me “freddo” and my sister “freddadoo”. You’re not the only one…
King Amphitryon is my alter ego lmao. In Greek, Amphitryon roughly translates as “harassing both sides.” And that’s what I do. I don’t just single out someone: I harass you ALL! 8)
YoshioTanabe was, and I kid you not, a cashier from the Japanese supermarket near my house. I actually have a photo of Mr. Tanabe and I from a long time back, but I look ridiculous in it, so I won’t dare post it. For those of you who don’t believe me, here:
I am Ferf and Ferf is Ferf. Who cares about the person if it’s the same one?
In 2010 I made some shitty thing with a shitty name. I realised how shitty the name was, so I wanted a new one. I had a book next to me (a tutorial book for making stuff in flash) and I flicked through it. I saw a tutorial for making an interactive octopus where you could drag the tentacles around or something, and used that. The project was still shit so I abandoned it. In summer 2013 I went on a school exchange trip to Germany, and the person I was with had Minecraft. Up until then I thought Minecraft was some shit game (one of my friends played it until they moved to norfolk), but I saw that it was kinda nice so I bought it when I got back.
I needed a name. Octopus maybe? Nope. Taken. Okay, how about TheUKOctopus? That worked fibe. Incidentally, the UK stands for the UK… because… well… figure it out yourself. This is why some people call me ‘uk’ rather than octo or whatever. I discovered the world of MC youtubers and Keralis. I wanted to join Keralis’ server because I was literally so amazing(ly terrible, it transpired) at building. I tried some stuff in singleplayer, but I realised I needed a server to… ahem… use for ‘inspiration’. I found PCB. I built some shit house in Creative 1.6 spawn and failed miserably. Then some player called GuiboAllon (now Ducky) asked me if I wanted a house in his survival town. I was the last person needed for a warp. There were a few others there, some weird person called kurrpeted98989, or Kurry for short. I thought she was a guy. Had it not been for ducky then I would be long gone by this point.
Fast forward to 1.7, name changes: I drop the uk to be “theoctopus”, but ruby got mad at the lack of capitalisation so it changed to TheOctopus. I also thought ruby was female at first, but Ducky thought I was like ten years older than I actually am.
TL;DR: shitty projects, shitty me, ducks, deutschland and grammar nazi gemstones
“Elydore” is an anagram of “yodeler”, and I love yodelling! xD Nah, just kidding, my username has literally no history, I just thought of some random crap and somehow I came up with “Elydore” “MD” is because I’m a med student.
Wooly19
wooly from my surname that people have abreviated to wooly and its sort of stuck my cousin uses the same and we both have private plates with wooly on them. (he’s using his mine will go on my motor when i get it in 4th quarter of this year)
19 as it was the door number of my first house and i sort of follow my cousin after his first number was 51.
YES THERE ARE TWO WOOLYS. NOT SURE IF WOOLY SENIOR STILL PLAYS THOUGH AS HE MAKES A SHIT TON OF MONEY
So a lot of people think the meaning behind my name is because they think “Katy” stands for my IRL name and “cat” is just because they think I like cats. However that is not the case. The name Katycat accouly stands for a fan name for Katy Perry who I was and kind of still am a fan of. The underscore is just because Katycat was allready taken. (I know not very creative or exciting.)
I was a 14-15 year old kid. I came up with the tag “Zakrox”, as in “Zach Rocks”. I was a kid, alright?
