My Username Story
As my username was "Miles--Prower", my bio used to say "Ich bin mir bewusst, dass mein Benutzername unkreativ ist... eines Tages ändere ich ihn.".
I've been contemplating usernames for quite some time, and it climaxed as in the last few weeks I REALLY wanted to settle on one unique username for myself, especially as I was buying domain names.
Let's go over the username ideas that I had, we're rewinding back now:
Vulpecular: I found this at phrontistery.info, and it's an adjective of a diminutive of "fox" in Latin. However, it was taken here.
Alopecoid: I found this at phrontistery.info, it's the Greek word for "fox" with -oid suffixed. I wasn't quite satisfied with the meaning.
Vulpecularity: Aha! A nominalisation of "Vulpecular"! Also taken here.
ChristFox: I thought that it'd be cool to do this fusion for a username, however, I wasn't satisfied with some unpracticalities.
LalLumbar: This means "red fox" in Punjabi, and I'm a purebred Punjabi. Now, I was deciding between "ChristFox" and "LalLumbar", and the indecisivity was peaking here. I made a username change request at OCRemix that I quickly neverminded. Several days thereafter, I painfully bought the domain name lallumbar.com in a desperate attempt to escape the indecisivity. It just didn't cut it.
NibiNoKitsune: Frustrated, I decided to look for alternatives, so I thought about how to say "two-tailed" and "fox" in Japanese, and I ended up with this, which means "fox of two tails". Whilst Tails the Fox and Japanese I really love (I love Japanese because of Tails actually 
), so the meaningful part of this username was good (comparingly, I wasn't too sure about LalLumbar meanings-wise), the two unpracticalities were the lengthiness and the complexity (I liked how LalLumbar could easily be interprettable as a name but this is complexer).
Vulpinity: Nominalisation of "vulpine". Although the taken-ness was foreseeable, I wanted to see anyway.
On 2014.08.10, everything changed for me. Before sleeping the night before, I made a plan to reduce my browser tabs, so I made a wager with God that I would have <=12 tabs by tomorrow's end and asked for help, and I gamified & storified it a little to help myself. Why mention this? It has believable relevancy, as a few tabs were being held back by my username indecisivity.
One thing that always got me about "NibiNoKitsune", was why it had to have "No", and why it can't just be a compound noun like any other language can do, Japanese surely can't be this inflexible! My main way of researching how to say "many-tailed" and "fox" in Japanese was through nine-tailed fox. And lo and behold, on the Wikipedia page for nine-tailed fox was "Kyuubiko". I figured that "ko" was a different reading in compound, and Wiktionary confirmingly stated that "ko" was a Kan'on reading whilst "kitsune" was a Kun reading.
Basically I did a bunch of research then to clear up everything hereupon. 39 to Wikipedia, Wiktionary, various automatic translators, DuckDuckGo, Startpage, Google (I even searched "39, Google!" so that they could track my thanking ), Sukotto of answers.com, Zack of hyakumonogatari.com, chopsticks of nma-fallout.com, deviantART, and FanFiction (the last two for corroborative example usages). (if you don't know what "39" means, see this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nour6a…)
Throughout all this, I was like THANK GOD EXTREMELY MUCH! My username indecisivity woes had come to an awful (full of awe) end 
I couldn't have asked for a more perfect username ^^ I was also really glad, as this problem had been holding me back for quite a while. This is also one of innumerable reasons why 2014.08 has turned all the badness of the first 7 months of 2014 on its head and been just perfect. I bought nibiko.com and also a one-month dA premium membership (just to change my username) on 2014.08.10.
Why is this the perfect username for me?
Tails-related and Japanese - I am most happy therewith.
It's so small - only six characters.
nibiko.com was available - this is a real privilege, as small domain names are frustratingly hard to nab (this is actually the smallest domain name that I own now).
It's available - on deviantART, as well as most places... which goes hand-in-hand really .
It's unique - searching "Nibiko" on StartPage gave me under 100 results.
This is truly miraculous, as if everything just fit in place with the username "Nibiko".
My deviantART Story
I think that I could just comment there without a journal entry and still get the badge, seeing as others seemed to have done it... BUT, I want to follow the spirit, so let's go! ^^
Here at deviantART, I'm more of an experiencer than a creator. So, I'll just give free shoutouts!
Tails Cursors by SpringsTS. These are magnificent, and have wonderfully graced my mouse cursor ever since I found them (only missing thing is a Tails pointer, which I grabbed at www.cursors-4u.com/cursor/2006…). SpringsTS has many other custom cursors too, so check em out!
Tails Firefox Icon by RushFreak2. Firefox has always been my web browser of choice for several reasons, and to have this as the icon only makes it so much more awesome!
Windy Valley by darkfailure. Ah this is just BEAUTIFUL! darkfailure is a very skilled GFXer. I originally came across this here as Furianu's background: forums.sega.com/showthread.php… It looked so awesome, and I was afraid of asking for the source, so, I just complimented it, and searched it on Google Images and wallah! I have used it as a desktop background from time to time.

Remembering by isakysaku. I originally came across this here: forums.sega.com/showthread.php… Not only is this overall drawn so beautifully, but the detailing of the expression of emotions is amazingly well-done!
Checkmate~ by GrowingLight. This was my first favourite. And I think that you can right away see why, because the impact has been well-achieved in this artwork. Tails looks really adorable here.

Where Dreams Are Born by MylaFox. MylaFox really has such a unique and alluring style with her artwork. Each piece by her is striking, and the attention to detail is wonderful. I think that I originally came across this at forums.sega.com/showthread.php… My personal favourite from her is mylafox.deviantart.com/art/Mer…
Little Buddy by kkart. And to wrap this up, is a wondrous photograph of God's creation by kkart! I actually came across kkart when I was checking out what the prints shop was. He is a stunning photographer, so do view his awful (full of awe) photographs!
