i was obsessed with the "my name is jeff" meme when i was younger to the point that i would just call myself jeff
i then thought everything is funnier if you spell it wrong so "jeff" became "geph" and the -icka was riffing off of "jessica" with a k added because funny mispelling
i was a 7th grader and this shit makes 0 sense but it's funny asf now
it's pronounced jeff-ick-uh ftr

Because when i was younger i love dross rotzank videos and dalas review made a colaboration video with him. Thats all xD
oo i like this
i made a yt channel called bernian mapper back in 2018, with bernian being a combination of my last name and the common -ian suffix that is used for most countries (i.e canadian, argentinian) which tied in with the whole mapper idea, name stuck with me since then.
mapper channels naturally being those guys who make those "history of x country/continent in x time period" videos with epic music in the background (ftr i never made a video in that channel it got discontinued pretty quickly).
shortened to bern because i was tired of people saying my irl name was ian.
fun fact now that i remember my super-old OC countryball that i made for that channel (literally called bernian) had blue and green colors with a yellow star in the middle, this resembles cramorant so much it's uncanny ngl.

favorite color and fruit
Nocturne Nugget, cause my alias used to be Stoopid Nugget on most platforms but I didn't like that name, I changed it to Nocturne cause my name is Leila which means night in Arabic, and Nocturne sorta continues the night theme, plus its alliteration and has a nice ring to it
I like oceans. I like games. :3
My name electraineheart is a mix of multiple different references to things, some i didn’t even notice when i originally made up the name a long time ago but fit perfectly into who i am now.
The first references to were to characters in certain myths; Electra from Greek myth, and Aine from Irish myth (the goddess of beauty, summer, and love). I absolutely love the name Electra and i wanted a part of my name to relate to love.
in that combination is the name “raine”, which is derived from the French word for queen, “reine”. I didnt actually know this when i made the name but i put it here since people call me this all the time and relates to why i made this name in the first place.
The “heart” part of my name was an addition because electraine on its own doesnt sound about right, so i decided to put it in since i love hearts and, as a bonus, it is a reference to Electra Heart which is an album from Marina that i absolutely love.

Millie is a shortening of my name (Amelia). Back in the day I used to be apart of a competitive Pokemon clan called the "Blast Burners" or "BBers". The clan has more-or-less officially dissolved around five years ago, but I wanted to honor them by using another BB abbreviation. Bubble Beam also happens to be my favorite move from a "thematic" perspective.
My name used to be ZeroTheHero, and then I just decided to switch to this one a few years ago. I don't remember why I probably just thought of it and thought it sounded cool, may have been my hatred of math.
football (real football )
the one Tom brady played
this is probably a fitting enough first post
when i was much younger, i went by "8-bit ninja" online. it's about as juvenile as it gets -- i liked retro games and shonen anime.
a bit later, i had grown out of it. instead of coming up with something entirely new, i considered just shortening it to "eight", because i realized that if i had a favorite number, that was it. instead, i chose "ocho" (it means eight in spanish) because at the time, i had been studying spanish for 2 years and was actually really enjoying the learning process -- something which doesn't happen very often for me
unfortunately, i stopped consistent study of the language many years ago now and am not yet conversational in it (thanks, covid-era depression), but i hope i can rectify that at some point.

Ayo, liberaron a corvere
That’s an awesome story! Infernape really is a legend, love that your name came from a battle moment like that. My nick’s actually from way back when I made my first gaming account; I just mashed up a few random words that sounded cool and it stuck ever since . Funny how these names end up becoming part of us over time!
My name has always been Hisoka in every game i played even my first email in 2006 had Hisoka in it, and the first Pokemon game i played was PRO "Pokemon revolutions online" and my name there is Hisoka007 ~ and when i joined smogon with this account i wanted to keep the same identity but i didn't like the 007 part, i wanted a short name, since i couldn't take just Hisoka at that moment i shorted it to Hsk7 ♦ ♣
