![Story about your username.jpg](https://res.cloudinary.com/hpiynhbhq/image/upload/v1515004600/fujvgvm1ayit4b4l0t0h.jpg) # Tell me, what's the story about your username on Steem? Where did it come from and why did you choose it ? Choosing a nickname, a username has always been difficult for me. I couldn't choose one that I would love so much that it could go through the ages with me. Every time I have to register somewhere, I take a lead to think about it. And finally, I end up with something not very original. I confess to having been ashamed of some of my teenage aliases. It doesn't help me to choose one as an adult... Actually, I have to tell you something. For a long time, I refused to put my real name on the Internet. Already on Facebook, I didn't do it... until the day Facebook blocked my account. They knew my name. And this is scary. I had to confirm my identity and since then I can't change it (Facebook blocked the option!). Since that day, I use my first name (when possible). Actually, it's very rare for it to be available. How lucky I was for Steem! And if not, I would have use an improved version of my first name (like my first name and year of birth... Hmm). To choose a username is to finally stick an identity, a story, an image in the collective unconscious. If you can't choose your first name, you have this chance to choose your nickname. It's rarely a choice you're not proud of it. ### So tell me, the story ! I'm curious!
