What made you choose your pen name?

[bunny]

My ex used to call me bunny and it stuck with me on other sites I use bunnynmochii and mochii is my cat lol no glorious meaning there.

[stiatent]

Nice Quetzalcoatl is awesome inspiration, got that feeling immediately after seeing your name. Learnt about the diety as a lil kid being a dino fan, as Quetzalcoatlus was named after him.

Stiatent was literally me joking around, covering my eyes and typing on Wordpad ,
then removed a few letters and presto!
Wanted something that could work as an umbrella term to fit various gneres of art and music, yet also kinda whacky-artsy sounding,

[Bulalakaw]

For my pen name, I needed something that was entirely different from the previous ones I used. I frequented fanfiction communities, and while I'm immensely grateful at the experiences it gave me, I wanted a fresh start. And since all of them were in English, what better way to separate my current alias by using my native language!

Bulalakaw is tagalog for shooting star. I like space related things, so I went for it! I was actually surprised no one took it. I thought I had to name myself something like bulalakaw_19230.

[Avonguardian]

I've had a ton of pen names but my current one and the one I intend on using forever is Avonguardian.

I created it 2014 I believe, around the sametime my concept for my comic world was also made, as Avonguard is the place of which most of my story and ideas take place, hence Avonguardian is the name you call someone who lives there hahah.

I learned much MUCH later that the word "avon" meant river, so I suppose its River guardian which sounds badass as hell!

[AmazementComics]

Marvel comics, DC comics, Dark Horse comics, Image comics?

What’s another name that rolls off the tongue so easily and has a nice ring to it?

Amazement Comics.

[Hoku_1]

If that is your first name, that's awesome! Such a cool name like a shounen protagonist.

[WildMoonCrow]

Hahaha It’s a perfectly normal Norwegian name

[ShidoDraws]

I chose ShidoDraws cause at the time I was a huge fan of RossDraws so I named the second half after his. As for Shido, I used the name since I was a cringy teenager, I mean I'm still cringe now. Haha! There were several times I contemplate changing Shido to Shio, I thought it would be funny cause Shio is just Shido without the 'D' but didn't cause I'm bad at humor. Also, I didn't want people to think I'm female since I like to stay ambiguous even though I do say I'm female on certain websites. I'm just not great with attentions.
