He was young and he thought it sounded cool

He was young, and he was right!

Maybe it evolved from a mispronunciation of trash tin? (Trashktin)

I wanted a unique, one word hotmail address prefix. I strung random letters together until it sounded like a work :-p

My username came about when I couldst never remember my Steam account username/password, so I decided to use half of my name and the first number that came to mind, which ended up as Kee715. Maybe this shouldst be the "Why did you pick your username?" thread.

Seconded. Mine came about many years ago when I read "The Swords of Night and Day" by David Gemmel. I thought the name so damn cool, I've used it ever since.

As far as I remember Trestkon did decline the offer to be a moderator in TNM... but he is here...?

I never picked my username. It was chosen for me, a very long time ago.

Explain, I'm confused as to what you're getting at.

Wait, what..seriously?

You do understand how humans usually acquire names, right?

Well, Jonas isn't a very common name. A similar name may be Jon, but that's a short for Jonathan.

My nickname... well, I had to choose one that's unique, so I looked around the house. Since most of the items I have in my house are cheap and prone to fail, I chose "Made in China".
