I think the name was just something that sounded cool and was either made for gaming or when I helped mod a sychtube channel.
The avatar is just one of my family's old chihuahuas staring at me with a toothless unhinged look.

In terms of avatar, it was in my downloads folder
The name was originally chosen for nerd cred (for anyone who recognizes it - Atra esterní ono thelduin. Mor'ranr lifa unin hjarta onr. Un atra du evarínya ono varda.) but I later realized that it's also great because it's an actual word from an actual story and 99% of search engine results for my name are going to bring up that story and its wiki. It's an extra layer of pseudo-anonymity that I enjoy.
The avatar was just cause it's funny, I use this one all over the place.
Wanted something that showed who I really am
Well, my username is just what I came up with when trying to think of a cool sounding name. I don't remember what I originally used it for but I do know that I've been using it for several years at this point. It is one of my two most active names and I use it in a wide variety of places but I do know that I have seen people using my name, so if you see my name being used somewhere, it's possible that It's not me.
As for my profile picture, I've been using a picture of Zack Fair from Crisis Core as my main profile picture ever since I first played the game back in high School. He was one of the first characters who I really felt attached to. Prior to this, I was using Castlevania characters. Ever since Crisis Core got a remake, I've been thinking of going back to using Castlevania characters again but it just doesn't feel right to me anymore.
I do also want to mention that I do also use a picture of Clippy as my profile picture on some platforms. I've been doing this ever since I saw that one Louis Rossmann video and I use it on platforms that I don't support.

I'm the real Burger Baron and so are you! It's a local franchise of sorts with a very messy history.
I read Berserk.
I combined my dogs names, Kona and Loki, to come up with KoLoNaKi; but when I actually made the original thing using this name, I mistyped it as KolAnaki and didn't notice until like a week later.
Avatar is an early ass AI image gen image of my fursona when they were still a totally new thing and I was checking 'em out.
I was promoted from the rank of Commander Aggravated.
The avatar is an AI creation.

Display Name: I love Steins;Gate. El Psy Congroo.
Alt Account Display Name: That account is for Asian Diaspora Community stuff and Poetry, so I used Wong Ka Kui since that is my favorite Cantonese singer (he's dead now RIP), and as a native Cantonese speaker, I felt like it makes sense to assume his name as my online screen name for that purpose. I mean, songs are just poems but you volcalize it + music, fitting to, in the future when I feel like it, post poems under that name.
Actual Username: I made the acccount when I was depressed.
Big Sad = Great Depression
DeathByBigSad = I'm gonna die by the economic system collapsing
Profile Pic: I hate CCP. I'm not pro-ROC/KMT either, but I just like to trigger tankies xD
My username was based on the expanse
