What made you choose your fandom name?

Guaranteed to put you to sleep faster than Ben Stein reading the periodical table of elements!
Everyone has a reason behind choosing their nickname, whether it's me calling myself Sharra, or Lyenuv being Lyenuv, ImmortalPanda being ImmortalPanda, etc.
What made you choose YOUR name that you go by in the fandom?
FA+

which my friends sometimes say "Leon Scampi". ><
I always thought the name was cool.
So when this whole furry thing came up to me.
I had the name in the back of my head I guess.
Haha
So it stick.
As for Ukkio, well, my old Pally in Everquest was called "Ukko" and i just make it sound more girly =)
..... MA-121 Hunter Alpha = Hunter
XV = eXtrem Violence
thats all.
It never will either.
but then again, Panda was NOT my original fursona either :3
A) I'm very much a Realist in the outlook-on-life sense of the word
B) I go for a toony-style in my art, infused with as much realistic body structure as possible
C) It rolls off the tongue nicely~ =3
So yeah, that's why i chose my name....
Drasska actually started out as a guy and was named Drassk. After RPing as Drassk for a while, I turned him into a girl, named him Lieta and gave the title Drassk to her, but it didn't sound right, so I said that the feminine version of Drassk is Drasska. And the rest is history.
just one of those things..... turns out it is just part of my old RP name..... long bloody thing that it was......
Alternatively, Hollso is my nickname at home (and actually my first neopets account too)
"What does everyone like? Everyone seems to like vixens... and who doesn't like pizza?? BINGO!"
just kinda stuck!
I was looking at Yerf at one time, and then I saw
a picture of Max BlackRabbit, Gene Catlow, a black
wolf in a business suit, and Sully Fox.
I also looked at a National Geographic and found a
picture of a Macropus bernardus (black wallaroo-
a smaller species of kangaroo), and went from there.
The name isn't terribly original. I've seen many other Waccoons out there. Of course, many of them have stopped since I became more popular, and I know at least one of them is really pissed because people confused him with me.
