Originally I had a username that was based on my last name w/ numbers. I came across games that demanded usernames without numbers. I couldn't just use my last name, so I spent about 30 minutes putting letters and sounds together until I created Astrious.
Almost 8 years ago, Panga typod my real name/old username of Stephen, inexplicably leaving out nearly half the letters. I liked it and it stuck
