We all know the struggle of coming up with good usernames every time you need to create an online account. First, it takes you hours, if not days, to think of what seems to be a list of cool usernames you could possibly use that would reflect your personality and sound awesome — and then you watch how every single one of them is rejected because someone else had the same idea. Just out of frustration, you try a funny, maybe even slightly inappropriate name, and what do you know, it’s available, and now you’re stuck with it.
There are some people, though, who choose funny names on purpose. While this may not be everyone’s cup of tea, if you have a couple of funny username ideas, why not try them – they might actually grow on you. Ideas for usernames might come from virtually any part of your life, so let yourself be inspired and sprinkle that inspiration with a dash of humor.
For this article, we collected some of the funniest usernames the internet has to offer. How do you usually come up with username ideas when you set up an account? Share with us the story behind your username, and if you have ever come across funny usernames, let us know.

"There's always a place in my heart for 'Shrek2onDVD'."
"Yesterday I played against a "Nod if you need a hug" - I gave a chuckle and moved on, but they are the first one I find, doing a gen. They stop and look straight at me. I nod and she proceeds to run around me in circles. Soon enough all the other survivors followed.
I felt loved.
Until we all jumped into snowmen and tried to leave via the exit gate. Then I felt alone seeing them all go away in the distance."
"My favorite is still, from the first days of Halo 2 on Xbox live, 'A grandma'."

"I’m a fan of the username seen on Youtube: 'The Famous And Handsome Detective Manny Pardo On The Hunt For The Filthy Miami Mutilator'. I always chuckle when I see it."
Well of I wanted that long of a Username, it would say TOO MANY CHARACTERS. It's SO annoying when that happens.

"There was this one guy I saw on League of Legends playing as Tahm Kench, a guy known for EATIN'.
So the way the game displays names is the Champion's name above the user's name in the loading screen.
So it read:
'Tahm Kench AteMyDog'."

"Whaddaya know, I once played with a 'Hex: Devour Crayons'."
"Dont know if funny, but in Dota 2, in lobbies there was/is a button that says "Coach this team", which lets you become a "coach", in where you can see the match from that team's perspective without delay, unlike if you were spectating. This was banned from tournaments, but one guy managed to do coach a couple of games by renaming his profile to "Coach this team", and since the profile name replaced the text prompt, no one noticed until one player had the game on a different language."

"Fitting since I fell from gold to bronze ahha."
"'Underwear_Thief', another one called 'Bens_Underwear'."
"'Sharkeater'. But only because my username included shark, so in that Titanfall 2 game I played with him I made sure to target him. I think I got more kills on him too."
"Back when I used to play PUBG I looked at the leaderboards to see who the top player was and the #1 player in the world at the time was named "Cheatboy" and he had like a 60% Win rate with a 70/1 KD on average. I still think about how blatantly that dude was cheating and laugh about it to this day."
"Post Plant Malone."
"Not online but whenever I play Jackbox party games, my friend would use "Richard Hole" then if there was an option to draw your profile pic, he'd draw a circle with a line from the bottom to the center and then add a dot in the center. I've since stolen this from him since we don't live near each other or play games together much anymore."

"Maybe make it relate to your favorite agent?
For example I love maining Kayo so my name is Mr StealYourUlt.
You're subreddit flair is Omen so maybe something like "Oh Man" or similar. Terrible name but a place to start."
I have seen some funny ones. The best one i remember is 'Johnny (ADEPPT)'
these are pretty funny, but i didn’t get most of them, probably because i’m not a gamer lol.
A few of them are quite clever.most of them well sound like they were done by a 13 year old boy.
