    I was just curious about what everyone's name meant! I'll start;
    My name, as seen in my email in my signature, is Kyle. Simple enough, right? The second part of my name. Poke. It was supposed to be Poké, however, Mojang is a big pooper. As you could guess, Poké refers to my addiction to Pokémon at the time. The last part of my name, Craft, is a given. If you don't get it, I recommend you quit playing Minecraft. I was about 8 at the time of creating this name, don't judge ^-^

    My other name a very select few may know me as, TrickyKyle. The history of this name is quite simple. I was playing clash of clans right after the name change option. I wanted to join my friends clan but you had to have "Tricky" at the front of your name. Since KylePokeCraft didn't make sense in clash anyway, I changed it to TrickyKyle. I ended up leavin the clan anyway, but I still think TrickyKyle is a cool name.

    Well mine isn't too hard or have too big of a story, but I will tell it anyway.

    My username is shrekster, as many or all of you already know. Let me start with the first part, 'Shrek'. Shrek is the green ogre that is famously known. I have had the username back when Webkinz was becoming popular and even back in my club penguin days. This was around 2005. I really liked the movie Shrek. The second part of my name is 'Ster'. This is off of my mom always calling me by name and then adding 'ster' to the end of it. So it would be like for instance, 'Lewster' (I do not want to provide my real name as I keep that private). #Lewster2k15

    Now if you have played on Survival you might have seen I have had many nicknames. I have not changed my actual username and I have never wanted to change it. I love my name the way it is. I want to share some backstory on my previous long lasting nicknames.

    Urbany - I was missing a friend that I had lost due to a server shutting down. I miss him to this day and it has now been 3 1/2 years since the server closed down. I miss him so much. #UrbanyYouAreVeryMissed

    ShrekMont - There was a clan type of thing going around between Marvanjo and Zoe96fancy (I think it was Zoe) and so we messed around by changing our names to either adding 'anjo' or '96fancy' to the end of our names. I didn't want to choose sides, so I just went it 'Mont'. The last part of Marshmont's username.

    ShrekkMont - This one has 2 'k's in Shrek (Shrekk). This was a joke that I never took off. A player by the name of Obz_ typoed my username as ShrekkMont and I kept the extra 'k' since.

    ShrekkBaeMont - This is connected to ShrekMont but extended and many months later. Many people kept calling me their bae, I think I had 6 people saying I was their bae at one point. So, I figured I would add Bae to my name.

    (Now my current one)
    ShrekkAstroNOT - To be honest, I don't remember why I am an AstroNOT in staid of an astronaut. My being my joking self it was probably me doing a play on words with a friend. It was around the time I found out that you can put glass on your head with /hat. It stands for me not being an Astronaut but wanting to be one. Therefore I am an AstroNOT. I had had this nickname previously, I don't know why or when though.

    (My seasonal one for the time being.)
    ShrekkDaHalls - This is a play on words from the Christmas special Shrek has called Shrek The Halls off of "Deck The Halls". It is ShrekkDaHalls instead of ShrekkTheHalls because then my nickname is too long. Stupid limited characters! LOL.

    There is the story on my username and a few of my longer lasting nicknames. Hope you enjoyed and answers the question of the backstory on my username! :)

    Well lauren_sue is my daughters name since this is her account and I took it

    If this was anything else my nickname would have been jiffylu. My mom has called me that forever. She would come pick me up from school and yell "come here jiffy". Everybody knew me as jiffy. friends family member, people i have no clue to who they are. This all stemmed from me doing everything quickly to get back to the nintendo 64. I would inhale my food, throw stuff around when cleaning, anything i could do to get an extra minute of playtime!

    Ive never liked changing my username, Mines always stuck with me and probably will forever

    When I made my account I didn't couldn't think of a name so I decided to sleep on it. That night I had a dream where I was underwater in some sort of facility. But anyway, I jumped out of bed in the morning and screamed XFSCRAFT. The name is so weird and random but I like it anyway. :p I don't intend on changing it. :D

    Guidodude- This was my original name.
    About 3 years ago, when I was around 10 years old, I was begging my parents to buy me Minecraft. It took about a year of convincing, and I finally got it. My mother asked me what I wanted my username to be, but I had no clue. My mother's old nickname for me was 'Guido' from that old movie Cars. Then she suggested to me 'Guidodude' I went with it anyway because I had no ideas for a better one.

    Eeonix- My second name.
    About 2 years ago now, I was apart of a server that was shutdown. Everyone knew me as Guidodude, but we all lost contact. I decided to change my name. I honestly don't know why, but I did anyway, I supposed I thought it was cool.

    EeonixMC- My third name.
    This is more of an upgrade from my second name, just adding the 'MC' at the end, because I saw tons of people doing it, so I wanted to join in.

    GucciGuido- My current name.
    I joined a server created by Richard, or Coveys, (He created Plots) and I met up with a few of my past friends. One of the staff members there, who was an ex-staff member here, I believe once said to me 'Gucci, Guido.' He still called me Guido, because that's the name he remembers me by. All of my past friend were confused about my name, so I decided to change my name to 'GucciGuido' and I've had it ever since.

    ms_cookie_love - My original name. I didn't think of it, my 9 year-old sister did whilst we were eating cookies. I had it for a long time, I find it funny how people still asked if I was a guy.

    CookieLuv_
    - A wild Pabl0tron gave me this name, he would say "Cookie my luv". Also if you stalk his profile you can find this http://prntscr.com/98igz1 . I was going to change it to 'CookieLuv' but it was taken, but 'CookieLuv_' didn't look that bad either. So that happened, I changed my name to that around the beginning of my helper trial.

    ScarredFighting
    - It was my undercover name but I found out people could just do /seen ScarredFighting xD So everyone knows that that's my new name. I originally changed it to that so people wouldn't ask me questions on recent events, but yeah.. I thought of the name when I was hearing a song I really liked. I made a mistake, I thought it was called "Scarred Fighting". Though it was actually called "Battle Scars", but you know I was close enough. So yeah.

    I am going to change my name back to CookieLuv_ so nobody dare take that..

    Back maybe, 8-9 years ago I started playing on the PlayStation 3. Naturally I needed an online name and I tried to setup my account. It refused my Hotmail email so I couldn't, I ended up having to use my fathers email instead. My parents then decided since it was my dad's email, it was his account too. He had been given the nickname of 'nedthefed' by office workers about 30 years ago and it still gets passed around a bit (His name is Neil). Just stuck with that name, and it worked out quite good because in some games 'Feeding' means giving the enemies lots of kills, and so me being 'Fed' implies I'm getting a lot of kills.

    davidnutt10 - David is my name. My parents call me 'nutt' and I was 10 when the account was made.

    Davidnutt5972 - Same as last name except I just made the letter d uppercase. I also thought of the number 5972 one day and it sounded catchy.

    CaptainTieDye - Now, with this name. I love TieDye. One day in September in gym class I thought of the name while wearing my TieDye hoodie as a cape.

    The_David_Nutt - Mid way through November I changed it to this. I just found the name kind of cool.

    Hallo, I'm DrSpinne

    I've never changed meh name, so yeh. MLG OMG PEW PEW PEW

    I got my username because I was about 12, and my dad was a doctor. I was really dumb back then, and still am now ( I know it's spelled know, just poking fun) Anyways, I was in my room, and I saw a spider spinning a web, and my dad was talking loud in the other room, cause he's a doctor. So I was like, " OMERGHAD IM DOCTA SPINNE", and like I said before, I was dumb, and spelled Spinny, "spinne".
