Mind you, I don't play any instrumentsbut I was 8-9 years old at the time, and my cousin (who's 15 years older than me) helped me pick out a name to sign up on the website. We had no idea what to choose, so I just picked "harpa" (harp in portuguese) because I liked this instrument's sound
It's kinda cringe, but it did grow on me

But back than I used my real name in every username I had, cause I was so bad in creating a usernameand was afraid I might hate it very fast and I could never go wrong with my own name, so my name with some numbers became my username.
But last year I started to feel very uncomfortable with using my own name. So I changed my username on a lot of sites but didn't know what to choose, so somehow I came up with this.
Crystal -> because I like crystals, gems ect and it gives me a bit of a magical vibe![]()
Rose -> because Roses are my favorite flowers
Later I realised that this are also real names and people might think that this is my real name but that's not true. And now I am not sure how happy I am with it anymore, but can't change itI could create a new account but I would have to start all over again
People don't usually assume that those are real names online though. At least not in my experience, I've seen a lot of people using different names and pen names for writing/drawing, even if they are real names, if you like the name you chose, being a real name shouldnt stop you from using it :v

I honestly never realized that harpa is the name of a musical instrument!
I thought it was just a cool made-up name.![]()

My nickname on the old Winx Club website was natasha_r, where Natasha is my real name, and the _r was added completely randomly (probably because the name natasha alone was already taken)
Back then, I liked visiting foreign forums and chatting there . And one time I happened to join the chat of an Italian user. If I'm not mistaken, her nickname was lunettafatata. We started messaging from time to time, and she called me Naty. I had never heard that version of my name before, but I really liked it and started using it as my nickname. Later, it transformed into Natie. And now, most of my internet friends know me as Natie.![]()
Actually, I like how at first glance it seems like it's just a short version of my name, but in reality, there's a deep connection to the Winx Club forum.![]()
