Very few people know who/what Chip Chipperson is. I particularly like the young fella and chippys mittens was the name of his pet horse, RIP.
Paul PoOooOooOooooL
I wanted people to regret worrying about who they were reading messages from
A friend in primary school just started giving us weird nicknames and decided to call me the wizard pope (not really but that is the best translation) he even held elections and elected me to the position so I just started using it as my username. The picture is self explanatory though I did have to change it in the spring.

Hollow is a song title by an EDM artist named Dabin and has themes about loneliness, emptiness, and inner turmoil. Also depression makes me feel hollow. V is the first letter of my first name.
Here's the song: https://youtu.be/K-AD0iMs_ak
My username is my first name abbr and my middle initial just backwards. Ben A. It still pretty anonymous if I wanted it the right way around but Aneb is very funny to me tbh. It was very seductive when Staments said it in verse in his voice memo to me a while back. Its also something my grandma does with words so its an homage to her as well. tsuguanimajneb would be too long ¯_(ツ)_/¯
lol idk
Username checks out
No avatar because I can’t be bothered. I don’t see them on my app anyway. As far as I can tell, nobody has them.
I was watching some movie, and I was like ooh, centipedes would make good farriers; they can use their body along the hoof to draw a stencil by just passing a pencil along all of its feet!
And that was silly so here we are.
"What would 'palindrome' look like if it was a palindrome?"
I am not Rick, but I’m also NOT the Krusty Krab
That sounds an awful lot like something Rick would say
It's my real name, and I don't remember which avatar I have right now but either way it's from a webcomic.
What avatars? I can't see them. My user name means what's up dude in my language.
Occasionally, my socks go missing.
You guys have avatars? Too much effort...
This is me just learning avatars are a thing.
I am just a person, you dont need to know anything more about me.
It was the first online user name I ever created back in '92. I got it from the Nocturnus album Thresholds. The song was Nocturne in B Minor, which is from Chopin's Nocturne.
My avatar is my cat, Mouse Police wearing a yellow feather boa.

I also use the SHARPS logo as an avatar.

I've been using this username since I was like 12. I think I'd just watched Babylon 5 and was trying to come up with a username that took a cheesy cringey self given nickname (Papa) and mixed it with some sci-fi sounding stuff (Babylon) and came up with papalonian.
My username is a play on a very esoteric old /tv/ meme.
My profile picture is one of my drawings from my worldbuilding project. It's a froglike alien commando.
It's the first letter of my real name.
I had a friend since college whose first name started with a Q, he always went by Q. A couple years ago he started to use a QAnon logo as his avatar. Someone informed him of its meaning and he did a deep dive on it and never came back from it. I ended up blocking him on all social media because he went off the deep end.
Yeah I've had my share of people associating my username with that. Also Star trek, but that ones OK.
Keys on a qwerty keyboard. Just so that it's different here from everywhere else.
The only reason I have a username and not an avatar is because I was forced to pick a username but not an avatar when registering.
My avatar is a picture of a large ceramic cow in northern Michigan. The cow is named Jillbert.
The name is largely self explanatory.
Bizzle is my legal name
Fo shizzle my Bizzle
I just think the Grasshopper Mouse is neat
It's kind of the slogan of my state
It’s my actual name, I got it for my birthday.
I do a lot of play therapy and wear a lot of costumes. Arts and crafts necessitates shiny objects such as gemstones glitter/glue. The photo I think I’m dressed up for some silly hat day thing. I may be a crow.
I’m just a gust in the wind and I made it in paint to be a gust of wind
My avatar is the GOOD BEE from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Because I'm locked away in my cave, but if you manage to find and befriend me, I am loyal and will slay your opponents.
It’s my first initial and last name.
Every time I see your avatar, OP, I think of Audacity 😅
Mine's just... Something I came up with. It came to me in a dream I guess.
I use names that may seem creative, but have no real meaning. Just made from spontaneous ideas.
I always have several of them (prepared or in use), because you never know when some ultra crazy mod turns up.
I read Berserk.
We call someone who can't do anything right, or is “useless”,“un zero a l'esquerra”, a zero to the left (as in the zero in 01, which is the same as 1, making the 0 irrelevant).
I consider myself one such zero to the left, but that's too long, so leftzero. 🤷♂️
Also... lemmy has profile pictures..?
"Ugh I need to think of a new username. What's the name of the company I just bought a strimmer from? That'll do.."
Strimmer seems pretty good, still working a couple of years later for occasional use. Much nicer to have a battery powered tool instead of petrol. And bonus, I feel like Worx is such an unknown company that I'm not even giving free advertising because no-one even recognises the name!

I'm not creative... Its virtual (real life initials)
