My username was created about 6 years ago. 

"Frozen" in my username is a reference of once-obsessed movie Frozen itself. 

"Railgun" in other hand was from a weapon type in the game Star Warfare: Alien Invasion (played that game 6 years ago) but sadly, it got shut down.

My inactive WO4 F2P account "VocaloidDefence"....

"Vocaloid" is a voice synthesizer that I met in 2016 July (4 years now). The 1st Vocaloids that I knew were Miku, Lily, Gumi, Rin and Luka from a Bad Apple video on Youtube. .https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6i0WrqtQ_0

"Defence" is based of pro-Vocaloid fans' response from an anti-Vocaloid (to defend Vocaloids from disappearing on YT) campaign few years ago. It was mainly to target Vocaloid Hatsune Miku by falsely report copyright infringement and get Youtube to delete the songs (mainly to those that has her VB in the songs).

I think my nickname is more a personally name also it's written wrongly..

I think in near future I will pay with real money just to change my name into a more appropriate name for games, I prepared a name but don't know when.

My first ever account was 2strong4u. Pretty self-explanatory.

I got the first part of the username for my current account because at the time when I made it, wolves were my favorite animal. (That's no longer the case, but I digress.) 
I used to use 873 in a lot of my usernames, because those are my top 3 favorite numbers from 0-9. (8 is my favorite.)
I added on another 3 to make 8733, so it would be a little bit different from all the other usernames I use on different websites.

My nickname is actually derived from a track made by two of my favorite producers, Code: Pandorum & MARAUDA - Blood Pressure. Since it's a rather dark and heavy track most of you are probably not going to like this, but jokes on you I am into that stuff. 

My first account leonny-boy is based on my actual name - my most recently made account Lancre is called after a track of one of above producers as well (and some history if you mind searching on Google).

I found my nickname like 6 years ago when I was playing PES 3 "Pro evolution soccer 2003" (i know it's a trash game but anyways), and 6 years ago i didn't speak english, so i played a match using this eastern european team and i saw this dude called exactly "niko konac" and i thought it was a good-sounding name, and i created accounts in many games with that nickname, and some time later it became my tanki nick, Then lately i figured out that my nickname is the name of a soccer team coach, and it has a typo, and i checked in this PES 3 and it was writted with the typo, and it's jokes xd

 

And my other account is called "Skills_my", it's called this way because Around 2017, test server was able to be accessed using standalone flash player, and during those times I played the actual game on standalone flash as well, so I wanted to create an account called "Skills" (I went for the Skill theme cuz people were always talking about skills in tanki back then) on the test server, but instead, i misclicked on the Tanki online link on the flash player, and when i typed "skills" it said it was taken, so i tried "my_skills", and it was taken as well, then i told myself that it's just test server so i'd call it whatever, so it ended up being called "Skills_my", then i figured out when it loaded, that the rank was Recruit instead of Marshal as it was meant to be on the test server, so I abandoned the account until i used it some time later, 

And that's it, 2 long essays explaining how low my IQ is while picking nicknames lol

Sad things is that the name 'my_skills' is actually free to choose right now ?

Maybe you can find some friends that have all of the Avengers names and have a clan named "Avengers" or something. That would be really cool in my opinion.

You know that's what I actually wanted to achieve. I joined forum so as to find someone with nickname of an avenger to create a clan. But I guess, I am the only avenger in Forum. None of my friends play TO though I invited many. They mostly play COD or Free Fire!!

Well, i started playing tanki at the late 2011s. The nickname I was using for the games I played was "nickge".( Nick is my name and ge are the first two letters of my surname. I know its a pretty dumb name but come on, I was 9 years old) One day, a friend of mine told me about a really cool game he found called Tanki online, so later this day I made an account named nickge2 as "nickge" was taken. 6 years later there is the option to change your nickname so I grab the chance as I could understand my nickname was ehmm.. not so good  and decide to change my nickname. However I realised I could change my nickname 1 day before Rename pass appeared in the shop. So, I had to find a new nickname really fast since I was a no buyer and had to do the change with 100k crystals. Time passes and night comes without a really good thought. Suddenly I came up with an idea : It would be cool If my name was a shop paint name.(They were really popular back then). Excited, I try every paint but I got  dissappointed.... Every paint name was taken. After this, I didnt have the courage to look for a nice nickname anymore so I searched for a clan ( They were pretty rare those days) to name myself  the clan's tag in order to be accepted to the clan.( Ok I admit it, this idea was really dumb). I think the clan I chose had the clan tag [Whole] , so I would name myself "Whole". When I found the option to change my nickname, it was a button that I had to press which had the word "Rename" on it ,like the Rename pass now. I saw it and suddenly a really nice idea came to my mind. It would be really cool and funny if I Renamed my account and rename it "Rename". Excited once again I check if the name is available and yes, to my surprise, none had taken this nickname. Really statisfied and happy, I apply to change my name and from 16 October 2017 till now, I can see the name Rename In the upper left of my screen, over the experience bar. This is the -not so short- story about how I chose my nickname and what my nickname means. Also, yes, I have recieved many puns concerning my nickname...
