[Rosencrantz]

Well, my birthname is Rose (I go by Jean now, pronounced the French way) and I was quite little and looking at Shakespeare stuff and came across Rosencrantz and I was all THAT'S ALMOST MY NAME OMG OMG OMG. And I rather liked it, right? At the time my online name was 12345jinx, and I was looking into something new.

Then I came across this exchange from the based on Hamlet play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead:

Rosencrantz: Do you think Death could possibly be a boat?
Guildenstern: No, no, no... death is not. Death isn't. Take my meaning? Death is the ultimate negative. Not-being. You can't not be on a boat.
Rosencrantz: I've frequently not been on boats.
Guildenstern: No, no... what you've been is not on boats.

And that was it, I was so enchanted I've stuck with Rosencrantz nearly two decades now.

Trying to make a Rosencratz-pony persona right now, am nearly done I think:

Mine doesn't actually have a meaning. I sort of whipped it up like. ugh..in 1999? I didn't even drink then but I did like elves and fantasy things. My birthday is on the 26th of march as well. So eh it just sort of fell together.   13 years of the same username, criminiy I feel old now.  But at least I never have to worry about fighting for my sn, which can be a total pain in the patoot I understand.

[Dibbles]

Dibbles...after the newborn twin pony...I know. Creative.

[Ivaness]

Ivaness is my go-to name.
Ivan is my son's name.
ESS just makes me think of the feminine version of some words. Priestess, abbess, druidess, the like.

SO, Ivaness. ^_^

[Rainbow Revolver]

It's my ponysona's name so, I use it on some pony sites. :3

[kaoskat]

kat is my name and kaos...well.... it's rather obvious I think.

Benedict Cumberbatch 

[Jinxxy]

I freaking LOVE this thread! So many times I wonder where peoples names came from.
There have been threads like this before, so I was familiar with SDS's story and a few others.

I have been though a ZILLION screen names. I have been CorspeKitten Corpsey, Nachtlicht (though not here because it was taken) but finally decided on Jinxxy when I FINALLY got my oc just right! I've never really had a solid fursona until Jinxxy.
Why the name? No idea. I'm a bit of a Jinx.. And Jazzy is my sisters OC so I thought why not?..

Jinxxy is the Jackal/hunting dog hybrid that I've made a costume of in my siggy She's also my fursona fur the furry fandom and my pony character (same colours and markings) too

[Dawn]

It's my name!
I know, I'm creative x)

[Pangel]

Pangel is actually supposed to be P-Angel. It stands for 'portrayed as an angel', though I normally let people try and guess what the P stands for with often amusing results!

I've had this name since I started using the interwebs some many moons ago.

[Aflame]

i got the symbol for my ponysona first whitch is a heart aflame therefor i got the name aflame

[NumiTuziNeru]

I.... made it up when I was feverish and high on Nyquil.

Riveting.

[FlitterRose]

Not a long story.That's just the name of my persona.Old-fashioned,huh? 

[Water_Fire]

I just heard the name Waterfire ages ago, and decided it was cute so I started using it on pony sites. There was already a Waterfire here when I signed up, so I decided to put the underscore in.

On non pony sites I'm Beatrix Plotter
