My name is so silly (how I got it)


So me and my ex made a story, And two of the main characters Was named, Trever & James. (Trever is my oc.) Then I grew so attach to the name that I made that oc, My Main AND my preferred name.


Then. One day when I was going though some old art, I made my old main oc, into a human. And instead of her being a human girl, I changed them into a boy. And guess what his name was?

Trever. Not even spelt as trever. TREVER , LOL!

Scuttle- Like the bird from The Little Mermaid lol- my friends named me that bc my hair goes crazy like his sometimes

Leo- i got it from a book (The art of being normal. like its a good book but not that good. i still like the name though LMAO)

Also, one of my names is just Link's boyfriend bc i made jokes about it last year and it STUCK WITH ME. sad

Fun fact: my great-grandfather's name was Leo and that was (probably) what my parents would have named me. weird coincidence but i think its pretty cool :3

I have over 100 names (LOL) & some of them are literally just actual objects

most are from rock stars & metal musicians (Stevie from Steven Adler of Guns 'N Roses, Rob from Rob Halford of Judas Priest, etc) !!!

some are also very nature & space themed almost !!!

I also have a handful of names that I stole from video game characters (Link, Kirby, probably a couple others)

I also have a couple names that are from food (noodle) :3

(More of an online name then a chosen name but it's the closest thing I've got) when I needed to make a username for my old webtoon account I went with the first 2 words that came to my head and those were unworthy & pineapple but then I got a attached to the word unworthy & changed the spelling to UnWorthy...and now no one online is allowed to call me anything but that dancing tree
