how the heck do you create a username

The way I've been coming up with usernames is mainly using two things:
- words that sound cool to me
- references to media that I like
a bunch of stuff

to add onto this: i wouldn't worry about making a "brand" out of your username unless you're looking to create content (like devle and minimania). it can seem overwhelming and permanent when you try to find the "perfect" username to create a brand

how i got "rat":
i came up with rat because, idk, i thoguht it was funny. Personally ,i don't like the name rat because i think it's unoriginal and every large discord server i go into has at least 1 other rat (with the same personality too?? Like what????ok?)
discord sent me this message when i signed up and i also thought it was Really funny:

i'd probably change my name but i don't know what i'd change it to + everyone already knows me as rat + idrc that much

point is, i think people don't care about your username as much as you care about it. To be Honest though, 2bwhatever is a long name and kinda confusing so i understand why you don't like it, but i don't really think it's a bad username, especially for a forums website that is kinda dead. you could try picking a shorter name based off of 2B55B5G such as 285585grams (this is a joke, i can't think of an example). or, you can do something short with zero thought, like rat, then you don't feel connected to your username and won't care if it's bad lol

also: seems like this topic revealed a deep insecurity for a lot of people LMFAO

in this thread people with good usernames tell everyone that their username sucks in the most convincing way possible

I used my actual real username because my parents would get angry to me if I don't use my real name.

I'm feel embarrassed about it. But its alright :d

Amateurs. No name sucks more than mine.
I'm legit ashamed.

I'm assuming you're talking about whatever HG stands for. But now that you've shortened it down to a two letter abbreviation, you have unlocked the ability to morph into different usernames at will, by telling people that HG stands for different things. Maybe one day you are Happy Gamer, on another day you are Hapless Ghost. Maybe on gym day you are HUGE GAINS. You are now capable of adapting to any situation. I call this phenomenon the "Chameleon Username".

Yeah... that doesn't really work. I'm still known for the name it came from, and that will go on forever. Also won't change that I'm known for making actually stupid choices.

Hopelessly Gloomy...

Well on the bright side, you don't have to hear the same thing every time. Now there's some variety to the way people can make fun of you
