Many of my blogs have my pseudonym "Opachii", rather it's a title or the name of a character in one my of stories, Opachii will show up somewhere in my several blogs. Opachii is a name that just stuck with me and it all came from an anime.
I play a good amount of online games "World of Warcraft" being one. Most online games allow you to choose a character name of your liking, there is also an option to pick a name at random, which is something I use to do, I didn't see myself creative enough at the time to come up with names on my own, that or I was just to anxious to start a new journey, and the name was a bit meaningless to me at the time.
Once I started watching anime though, that all changed, I wanted to be a character from my favorite anime series. Some may consider it roll playing, but I just simply want a name corresponding to a protagonist of the anime I was currently into.
Why I kept "Opachii" of them all? It was a unique name. Most of the time while trying to use all sorts of letters to come up with a name similar to the one I want it to resemble, the name would already have been taken. That wasn't the case with this name, for and online games, or games I was able to choose a name for that matter.
Opachii soon became a name I rather enjoyed. After a while it lost it's anime resemblance, because many would pronounce the name wrong. It wasn't their fault though, I knew what I wanted it to sound like not what it actually sounded like. Listening to people pronounce it "wrong" I just started going with it, I liked it, and now I use it as an online alias.
