What's in a name?

General
9-puzzle. A number with a word, sounds like a lot of other usernames huh?
Well it is not that, I do have reasoning behind it.
Back when I wanted to join Furaffinity, I was doing it for the reason a great percentage of people were doing it for. (yes porn) But of course I needed a username.
So I really like 15 puzzles,

And so I selected that as my name. However I am not sure how but I screwed up the signing up process and never received an e-mail to activate my account.
So for the reasons why I was joining, (yes porn again) I went with the step down from the 15 puzzle, being a 3x3 puzzle that is just like it, 9-puzzle.
Here is the thing I realized afterwards, in reality it is an 8 puzzle and not 9 even though it is 3x3 and having 9 spots, it only has 8 numbers in the puzzle.

Now this did not bother me as I was here for one reason. (look above at the other two)
So anyway, when I started posting art you might ask, "Why don't you just create a new account that has to do with 15 puzzle?"
Well, because it is pointless, and I feel that I have settled into the name 9-puzzle, as I feel it has more of a ring to it.
Lastly it is lowercase and never capitalized, and it DOES bug me when people do capitalize it. It being lowercase is not a mistake, I meant it to be that way.
Anyway, to sum up my username came about all because of a mistake, and there you have it.

Over the year of posting I have come to realize that. =3
I play Tetris like crazy.
HI-SCORE
I like that! I respect that!
I did create an alt too, this is it, but... it was early on and I wasn't a ronso anymore so being called
As Scott McCloud once said "Don't title something based on something hat MIGHT change, cause even if it seems impossible now, it might happen!

It's not like I did a user name like "Jeri-the-hypercat".
And aside from that, it's like the journal says, what's in a name, it doesn't really matter what you are called.
Always did like your name, because it's actually unique compared to most.
And it is better than "FurryArtist10964295734"
Better than mine. XP
At least it isn't generic.
True. Better than stuff along the lines of "xxXAnimeKawaiiFanDesuXxx"
I generally like 9-puzzle or Jeri.
