To this day, I remember from probably twenty years ago or more seeing something on SomethingAwful that included the name “HPHovercraft” and it’s just the greatest. I’ll never forget it.

Pretzlcoatl

My personal favorite is FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io

For tumblr, that username is cute. For LinkedIn, it would be brilliant.

I think the first person to use an obfuscated name like lIiḷ|ḷiIl was pretty clever.

Margot Robbie used to be around here

Definitely not mine. First, too many people don't actually pay attention to realize it's not "fuck" and surprisingly too few people get the joke considering Lemmy is so Linux crazy. But most frustratingly, people just assume I'm an asshole because of it and then treat me like I am. Sometimes I really regret it.

My brother, when he was playing Overwatch back then, was killed by someone called Kim Jong Skillz

Ran across a Hunter back in my WoW days named Bowjob. Had a good laugh.

JeffBoyardee

I like @MacNCheezus@lemmy.today

Reanu Keeves

That's got to be mine

@this@sh.itjust.works

League of legends player named Fizz on my Jayce. Crass but clever.

Yours is pretty good, actually.

Most names I see here are just references or trying to be ultra edgy and offensive (SatansMaggotyCumFart for example). They might be memorable, but I wouldn't say they are creative.

Not many people have puns or even well done portmanteaus for usernames. 😔

Back when I was playing World of Tanks, there were plenty of quite interesting nicknames. Unfortunately, most I remember were in my non-english language, but there were some international like Hairy Spotter, IPutTheFunInFuneral or 10InchInColdWater.

Incellio Faggotini

I_HATE_KNICKERS

there were a lot of funny ones on the Opie and Anthony reddit

It took me entirely too long to catch the gag in @PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat

FrenchEnglishFish, Cumuffins, Organic-CPU. All user names of my boyfriend

Saw a UrethraFranklin on reddit I think

LokiLuciano (for those of you who don’t get the reference, Lucky Luciano was a notorious gangster. Loki is, well, Loki.)

Mine is the least interesting username on this site.

UGetzNoBunz

Slimey Slime McSlimington, from a page of this sources back in the old Internet. For additional reference "twink" used to refer to a tabletop RPG munchkin or power gamer; not the, uh, not the other thing.

As far as I've seen it's the oldest example of the "namey mcname" joke out there.
