This is a topic i just have to be curiouser and curiouser about. So you have been a member of bandaids for a time, and some have in that time changed their username. This is what this thread is for ladies and gentlemen, If you like share your usernames with us, and maybe the story behind each one!

Well i can start, so there at least will be one reply.
I registered at bandaids as Alice in Wonderland because i was quite into the world of Wonderland. Never really liked the disney version, nor really Alice. So there is were my username change comes into life.
I used my 1 free username change , and simply dropped Alice, and kept the description that maybe fit me the most - In Wonderland

I had another username before this one; back in older bandaids called AvrilLover06 or sth like that ("I'm not really sure about it "), but after a few weeks i changed my username to this one. I actually dont use this username (KerimS06) in internet or for other stuff like gaming etc, mostly i use "Kutadgu Kerim" on internet and it has a funny story tbh. I created that nickname from an old Turkish literature classic called "Kutadgu Bilig" which means "Knowlegde that brings happiness". So i replaced "Bilig" part (which means Knowledge) with "Kerim"(my name ) and created a nickname in old Turkish, Kutadgu Kerim which means "Kerim the happiness bringer" xD

When i registered in Bandaids proboards in my smartphone i entered the name Avengium, and the system stated "already in use" or something like that. So i tried and tried, and the system keeps saying already in use. So i logged in PC, and the name was not in use. But i entered in minus, so i decided to spend the free change adding the capital letter. The story behind the name i think is interesting and says things about me. My first nickname was Paladium. is still the same in some sites like wikipedia. The name shows a duality, my love for mythology and legend with the allusion to the statue of Athena Palas, the Paladion. And my love for science, with the element Paladium (pd, 46). Later i added a reference to my name, my love of the concepts of Angels, and Avenging Angels. And for this reason is Avengium.

When I first registered on the old page my name was E.J. It was an abbreviation for an alias that I had tought of when I had been writing stories, or, well tried to. I had some versions in mind back then, but somewhen just dropped it because I never finished just one story.
Later I changed it to TheRaven, it was simple but I liked it so much. And I fell in love with those birds back then.

I wasn't a member in the old forum, so this is my first/original username on Bandaids.
When I first decided to register here, I didn't really know what to put as a username. I had a lot of ideas as to what I could use as a username on this forum, but eventually, I decided to put the title of Avril's song "Hello Heartache" since I liked it so much as a song title and it's one of my favorite songs on AL. So I thought "Why not make this my username?". The past few months also, I have become a bit more melancholic and moody and so "hello heartache" kind of describes my mood and how I feel a lot of the time lately.

I wasn't registered on the old forum - with my english it would be a bad idea, so it is even now (as it's seen by this writing) but earlier - moreover, so I don't have a history of name changing. speaking of the meaning, my nickname is an alteration of spelling a word 'zaval' where 'a's are swapped with '4's (because they look similar, this coding is common in computing communities especially among the n00b asses pretending to be cool hackers xD (I am not like those, I'ma just a trully c00lh4ck3r hahaha)). 'zaval' in turn is an abbreviation of my name and surname and a pun - because in my language 'zaval' is the word with a pretty broad spectrum of meanings in the figurative sense, literally it means 'goaf' google says, snowdrift, gorge, logjam and so on. but figuratively it means some unpleasant (but mostly not dangerous for life) situation when you need to take a strong action to overcome it, like when you have failed your exam - it's a 'zaval'.) I should admit with some bitter irony, I may be characterized by this word. Still it's just a humble abbreviation derived from the name.)

On the real bandaids my nickname was: acw It is a combination of my name, middle name and last name. Now Jinkxx cause I always wanted to name my 2nd cat Jinx but on forums and pages where you needed a nickname, just plain Jinx is always taken, so I made it like this: Jinkxx

I was blackstarghost 3 years ago when I first joined because I was obsessed (and still am) with the Haunted Mansion a Disneyland.... I changed a lot since then, and really prefer the name moonlight now and it has nothing to do with Ariana Grande, and a lot to do with Sailor Moon XD

I've always had the same username for BA, and technically still do. I changed my display name from my username, dillonk47polik, to just Dillon when I became staff because it's a very BA-staff-like thing to do -- have a one word/name as a username. But I think I have outgrown my username here on Bandaids. I am happy with just having my display name being Dillon.

I changed my username a lot lol but the last one I had was InTheRhymes. When I was younger, I was writing a lot and it just popped in my head and stuck. No dramatic or funny story behind it. I think it was also at one point Wish You Were Here. Now I'm just book nerd and I think it's pretty permanent. #isuckwithusernames lol.

Harvey is a bit politically incorrect right now.
