yes, but this is a permutation.

I am fine with it, I have been using nocturne on the Internet since 93. Although I hate having to use a number at the end of it. When I joined sopuli I decided to replace the c with a k, since the instance is Finnish and I wanted the name to appear more Finnish. But I do not care for how it looks with the k.
You just have me a flashback to a game named Nocturne from the late 90s. I didn't remember anything about it, but I recall enjoying it.
I haven't thought of that in at least 20 years.
I used my move to Lemmy to switch to a different one after having the same cross-platform alias for something like 20 years. It was time for a bit more anonymity. Winamp kids might suspect it's related to the music player and they wouldn't be wrong.
I do somewhat regret not ending it with AMA, but such is life.
I dunno, but it sounds nice.
I created one that stuck in 2009 or so. Used it up until last year, when I realized the old one was stale / I grew out of it.
So I'm Oka now, where available, and allow 3 character names.
Yes
Yes of course, but also like many others I always pick a different name for each platform.
I have a mile long document of yet to be used ideas for song titles, synth patch names, lyric ideas, what have you...
I just harvested from that. It works.
Oo what synths？
One is never satisfied, as I'm assuming you know. I have plans to swap some out, but my current lineup includes:
Novation Peak Casio CZ-1 Novation Ultranova Radikal Technologies Delta Cep-A Dreadbox Abyss Polyend Tracker and a couple other supplemental pieces
If you're a gearhound yourself I wouldn't mind a look into your setup if you care to oblige.
Quite happy.
I only use this name for specific accounts usually for the purposes of social media. I have a different user name and account/email etc for everything else. But this nickname was given to me by a friend so yes. I'm happy with it.
It is good enough.
I wish it could be a full rainbow and now just blue.
It's free, everwhere. Except where my 11 year old self, creating a Minecraft account for the first time and inventing the name, already registered and forgot the PW.
I would have preferred "ScreamingGrasshopperMouse", but it was too many characters long, so what I have now will have to do.
I used to try taking Basculin as much as I could as jt was my first shiny pokemon, but on a lot of occasions the name got slipped from me by Pokemon fans. So I took CaptainBasculin. No complaints so far.
I think it embodies my interest.
yes, it was my "gamer" name a long time ago, and due to small(ish) size of fediverse, i get it easily, it is either sga, or some combination of sga and 13
Fun fact: user names are instance specific, so someone could grab any of our user names on a different instance. Think of it as having sga@gmail.com and someone grabs sga@yahoo.com.
/random tidbit
And even if it was gone, display name can be different than username. Making it both more and less anonymous and more and less secure.
It’s been with me for decades now. I couldn’t think of a different one to save my life.
Not the username I normally use, but I like it
I love mine. I once said "that's my name" before I even knew the concept of aliases and here I am
I like mine (duh) but also switch it up on different platforms. I'm much more averse to being recognized on the internet now.
I like mine
yes
I say it sounds pretty good. It wouldn't even be this way if I didn't sign up to this website.
Gives off Flemish vibes, I love it.
Yeah.
