Do you "own" your username?

Yup, pretty much for Mana Fiend. Although first of all you get links to pages about the monsters in World of Warcraft (which I never knew existed).
The one I use here (Nimirum) is just me that I've seen so far. Nimirum means a sarcastic "okay" in latin, but can also mean not strange/wonderful/surprising, although I picked it for the former... obviously.
However, the name I usually go by is Cado, but on most forums/services it has already been taken, probably due to its simplicity. When you google Cado you get tons of companies as well, everything from furniture, playgrounds and dentists.
Hah. When you google Nimirum my account here on the Escapist shows up on the first page. Woop woop!

Well if you just google "Thaius," you end up with a bunch of crap about the international relations between the US and Thailand (Thai-US). However, I'm still on the page a few times.
If you look up my full pen name, however (Thaius Tydane), you'll find 6 pages of hits, all of them about me: of course not every page is dedicated to me, but the occurrence of my name on the page is, in fact, me.
This is an original name that I made up, after all. I wouldn't expect to find it anywhere else.

I've been using this name, or variations of this name and when I Google it, besides people selling neonic tattoo ink, it's all me. I should try Betharoo next.
I Fully own my User name. Since it's Untracable on the internet.Qwerty0 said:
Just look at the name you can't find out anything about me !
Unknown, I am not yet defined or even known
Incognito, I shall for ever un findable
And Caps lock to make it harder to read so you don't fully understand.
Haha my name is a code !
Yep I do.
5 links on the 1st page. 3 linking to here, one to Steam and a quiz site I used to use.
2nd page has a lot of steam ranking sites and the Enter Shikari forum.
There also seems to be a band with the same name as me too.

Though each word in my name has a symbolic meaning to me, and it's quite a basic name, Yes. I am the only one. (The other six died. Hur hur.)
With the three digits it's all me. Just Stukov as nickname is shamlessly stolen from StarCraft Brood War. 961 is a more or less dead WoW guild and a small gaming community (ninesixone.se) and the first didgits of the zip code where the guys who started Nine Six One lives.
lol...
If you google "Uszi" there are apparently a bunch of crazy kids on facebook named Uszi... irl.

Suffice to say that none of those people are me.
Then, annoyingly, someone took my name as their XBL name...
Even more annoying, they like... don't even use it >:[

So I guess... I don't own my Username.
It's hard to have a short, succinct Username and be the only one using it. I was shooting for 4-5 characters, and given how short it is I think it's sufficiently rare. Only occasionally am I not able to register as that name.
People name stealing me is endlessly frustrating... because "Uszi" is a play on my actual name. I'm annoyed that fools don't know how to spell Uzi and register as Uszi instead.

i own my username on a regular basis, then i t-bag or and calls it n00b and stuff, a name shouldn't becoe arrogant, so you gotta kepe it in place, or it'll think it's the bigger of the 2 of you (you and your user name)
sometimes i even write it on a piece of paper and beat it, so it'll learn to respect my authoritah
