Hai ho I think this has been done, but anywho.. If you've had multiple names, say the ones you in particular liked!
1) My first IGN was tonystark96, yes I was a bloody fanboy and that name really fucked me over. 2) Second IGN IS XxZalphinoxX, in pages there used to be a font called zalfino, and I changed the f to ph. Then I put Xx because back in 2011-2012 your name consisted of Xx(yourretardedname)xX. at least on xbox..
I got Minecraft after my Prelims, so I was 12 then. I played some pirated version of Minecraft which was like 1.4.4 My favourite mob was the blaze and is actually still is. I wanted something weird and extraordinary, that's where Frozen came from. And Da was just a fancy word I wanted to use instead of The, though now that I think of it, the sounds and looks better.
I'm really not sure, actually. The name "Storm" is just one I've always liked, but I forget how I got the 997. I think it was one of those "Storm is taken, try these!" kinda things, and it's stuck with me ever since.
i called myself ElementalAssasin for various of reasons 1. everything that i do such as ts,Skype,minecraft and my youtube channel are called this 2. My original skin was like this thing called an ender assassin so i thought why not change my name to ElementalAssasin
DaBaderMC (first and current for a throwback) - When I first got my Xbox 360, I literally thought up "Da Badger" in 2 minutes. I tried using DaBadger for minecraft but it was taken, so I decided to go with DaBadgerMC. Since my older brother was the one typing the username, he botched it and forgot the g making it DaBaderMC. At the time, name changes weren't a thing, so I was stuck with it for awhile, but then got use to it. When name changes came out, I changed it to something COMPLETELY different which was...
Pyrocumulus (second) I wanted a name that sounded cool, so I looked up "cool phenomenons" and a list of them came up. There was Aurora, which I originally wanted REALLY bad but it wasn't available, so I took Pyrocumulus. Basically, it's a fiery cumulus cloud or something. My next name was...
TheXiphias (third) - I got tired of Pyrocumulus so I chose this. It's the scientific name for swordfish. I didn't even really know how to pronounce it, lol. Is it Zif-e-us? X-if-eas? I dunno. I regretted doing that right after I changed it lol. After that, I chose...
Rapturous (fourth) - I wanted another new one so I looked for "cool words that mean happy" since my IRL name means happy. I found this. I liked it, but people started calling me Rapeturous so I changed it to...
Gallant (fifth) - I wanted another name that sounded cool. I found this which is apparently a synonym to Valiant which I wanted originally. This name is kinda special since it's the name I had when I got promoted to Junior. It looked kinda dull though so I switched to...
Snoozin (sixth) - I wanted a fun name, so I chose this. I actually really liked it and still do, but it's taken now, so yeah, that's sad. A few people still refer to me as this which is pretty cool. When I wanted to change it again, I chose...
Excellence (seventh) - This name was cool and I was surprised that I was able to get it. Thing is,I realized that whenever my name was just a word I would end up hating it, so I started disliking this later on. When the next name change came out, I changed to...
Eako (eighth) - I didn't come up with this, I actually asked some of the staff for some ideas and FrostedCupcakez gave me "Eako" which I really liked. I changed it, and kept it for quite some time. A lot of people still refer to me as Eako, but a lot of them can't seem to pronounce it correctly, haha. My next change was...
TheMysticalDream (ninth) I got this one by inspiration. I took a look at an older YouTuber called Spoonerism and noticed his channel name was TheCampingTree. I thought that name was pretty dank, so I chose something with the same format. I liked this name a lot, and still do, but I wanted another change because I guess I have a fetish or something. I changed to...
PresidentBadger (tenth) - One of my favorite names yet. I'm keeping it, I simply went back to this name for a little throwback. I wanted to make a YouTuhe channel someday so I thought "If I name myself something like GeneralBadger or KingBadger, I could call my fan base the Animal Kingdom or the Badger Clan!" Neither of those were available, so I switched to PresidentBadger. I was debating whether or not I should pick PresidentAnimal or PresidentBadger, and this name came out on top. Will I ever change my name again? Doubt it, but I'll have to see, I guess...
NuclearDucky (bonus) - This was the first account I ever played on. It was a shared account which my older brothers, younger sister, and I played out. My two brothers quit minecraft a long time ago, but my sister and I continued. Now she's left and rarely ever comes back on, so it's kinda a deserted account, haha. Anyways, my oldest brother came up with it out of nowhere. This account was made many years ago, and I'm pretty sure he didn't mean to keep the name forever. It was just a placeholder, but it looks like it stayed. It's a dead account, but I'll keep it forever, even if nobody plays on it...
rilomilo9 - Well, my name was Riley for a long time, but I guess I thought of a nickname, and rilo was the first thing that came to mind. I guess milo rhymes with rilo, so I picked it, and it is my kitten's name (I got my kitten ages after that username). The 9 part, I actually don't even know, it was a number that came to mind, and it sounded catchy I guess. RCTCraft - Well name changes were released and I was wondering what I should call my name. I decided RCTCraft because that was my server name at the time, when I had a server. Oh and RCT stands for Riley (rilomilo9), Cade (cadeknuth21), Thump (Thumpback2677, currently known as ShadowWalkerX) which are all of my irl friends and myself. BlockPlace - Well at the time, seth had the name NinjaBridge, so I thought blockplace would be a cool name. ItzRilo - I wanted a username with Rilo in it, and I got 7 different usernames that had Rilo in it, which I will mention below. ItzRilo sounded cool, I guess. _Rilo - Again, I was trying to get the name Rilo into my username, and an underscore was closest I could get to. RiloYT- Well I have a youtube channel, and again I wanted Rilo in my name. RiloSux - I lost a bet to cronus, so I had to change my name to this. RyloCode - I'm the biggest fan boy of Kylo (funkystudios) and I wanted a name kind of like his. Ryilo - I thought Ryilo would be the coolest name of them all, for a name with rilo in it, and I will not be changing my name ever again, unless rilo is available..

"and I will not be changing my name ever again, unless rilo is available.."
vladthegreat100 It all started while making my youtube channel:
Well my name is Vlad... I think. I'm great, thus "the great" vladthegreat was taken and "vladthegreat100" was one of the choices that youtube gave me as a name. So I took it ;]
That moved onto my minecraft name and now I'm a generic kiddo who only uses "vladthegreat100" No capital letter because capital letters in names are overrated ;]
__SkyGirl__9: I like planes and I'm a girl. That's SkyGirl. That was taken, so I added the two underscores. My finger slipped and clicked 9, I didn't notice and __SkyGirl__9 was born.
FrozenSolstice: I was talking to the ex admin Jake about a new username, and I wanted it to sound cool. So he took it literally and said "WinterSolstice". That was taken, so I suggested "FrozenSolstice".... There you have it!
Dark_Night1002: I was 9 SuperDuperMan21/SupaDupaMan21: It was a phase NerdMC360: I have so much remorse iDarudePvP/iiDarudePvP: I like PvP and I can be darude
proud of my name it's a pretty cool name and I haven't changed it ever since
back in 2010 I used to play a game called transformice and there was this youtuber called Zegjita (really small amount his channel is actually still up and you can go see it) so idk I guess I was smart and I got rid of the j in Zegjita to make Zegita which imo sounds better. Idk but it just sounds way better than Zegjita and then ever since transformice of 2010 where I used Zegita as my first username I've named everything since then :).
also many people have told me that zegita is a better name than zegjita xD
My original name was "et477". I was called "et" by many so I decided to use "et" in my new name. I thought words that ends with a "eh" would sound cool, hence, Eteh.
rusty0509 was my PS4 name so that was my username for almost everything. Then Oxidado when you were able to change IGN for the first time because Oxidado is rusty in spanish and I just wanted to get rid of the numbers. Then REOM because those are my initials.
Warrior cats book series. When I was younger, my friends and I used to play games where we all had OCs, and mine was named Midnightshadows. A year or two later, I joined an Instagram page and the leader told me to change it to something a little shorter. I kept the prefix "Midnight," and I looked through the books for a suffix. One of my favorite characters was named Sandstorm. I took the suffix, added it to Midnight, and that is how my name came to be.

Yes, a Warriors fan! My name would be either Eaglestorm or Hailstorm, I love both of them. xd

Not entirely from OCN. He still owns the server, but more so retired from admin responsibilities.
@OP
Crazy_Creeper521: I played on a friends account before I bought this one. While playing an SG match, I saw a dude name CrazyYeti (or something along the lines of that). He was being refereed to as "Crazy" by the other players. I decided I liked that, an wanted to be called "Crazy". I also knew sort of how minecraft usernames worked, and knew that I needed to add something else, as Crazy was probably taken. "CrazyCreeper" sounded cool, so I added an underscore. I had to add the "521" since "Crazy_Creeper" was taken (521 is my house number).
CrazyCreepy: I was fooling around on OCN with the nick command one day, and got "CrazyCreepy". I thought it was a cool name, even though the other mods present at that time thought it sounded bad. It was also around Halloween, so everyone thought I had changed the name for Halloween.
CrazyisCreeps: This is a name I use for a few other accounts, like osu & steam. I also used it on my alts name for a short time period. I decided to switch my name to that, and am still currently in debate on whether or not that should be my new permanent name.
First IGN: DaFiperz - got this name from a friend, mostly because I stole it from him x) Second IGN: DrunkyDoge - this name came from a clan I was apart of on another server Third IGN: DingDeLaDoggo - stole this name from a facebook page Fourth IGN: KenyaNot - this name came from a semi-racist joke that my friends and I made at school one day
So it's an inappropriate name? Lol you shouldn't have said that.

Oh, does he still own the server? I thought ownership was given to last_username.
g33kfl0w - i have no clue man, it just came to me _expressions - my old australian best friend had expressions_ and he wanted to match w me sketchhed - when i first met one of my best friends, he thought i was on drugs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ *i want to change my ign again but idk what to ;-;
iTerraCubist (1st/ July 2014-May 2015 *Got Hacked) - back in 2013 when i used to pay on cracked version of minecraft, i was thinking of an OC thats kinda based off Minecraft so i went with Terra and Cubist and the i was a thing back then so i put it in.
SwordArtOnlineII (2nd/ June 2015-October 2015) - me and a friend decided to share an account until i could get a new one and since we both loved anime and ofc Sword Art Online, we agreed on getting this name since it was the only one available out of all the ones we could think of.
MySoulYourBeats (3rd/ August 2015- November 2015) - i got a new account thanks to one of my friends, and i wanted this name cuz i was a huge fan of Angel Beats! and this IGN is the title of the Anime's Opening Theme/Song.
TheScarletAmmo (4th/ October 2015- January 2016) - did a texturepack for alt account trade with a youtuber (BadgerPig) and i got this name from the anime Hidan no Aria (Aria The Scarlet Ammo in english).
LokighTheJiff (5th/ December 2015- January 2016) - been hearing the My Name Is Jiff meme for like a whole week and so i was like, lets see what we could do here, and then Lokigh's name came to mind, next thing you know, Hes a Jiff! <3 Lawrence
iTerraCubist (6th/ January 2015- Now) - Went on mojang to see if the name was cleared and it was so immediately got it back (my 1st account was hacked)
7DS (7th/ January 2015- Now) - Went on my MySoulYourBeats account after like 2 months of not using it and i decided to use it again as an alt and becaude my iTerraCubist forum account wouldnt work. And 7DS stands for Seven Deadly Sins, yes its another anime i love.
Speeded (8th/ February 2015- Now) - Won this account on SuchSpeed's Giveaway.
Ardit142r - A username generated by a school website with my name and some random numbers. Atdit - Ardit was alraedy used as IGN so it generated Atdit Atdit142r - Adding the numbers of the rdm generated username to my new username. AtditC - Adding another letter of my last name, the name AtditC came up.
Oh, does he still own the server? I thought ownership was given to last_username.
Hmm I'm pretty sure that the two Co-Owners still own the server. I can't recall seeing anything in slack about Cubist (last_username) becoming owner when the admins were revamped.
7788james: First name that i had transferred across from club penguin about 4 or so years ago XD
XtraMajestical: It was gona be ExtraTerrestrialActivity but changed to XtraMajesticalActivity because i took the 'E' off so it could fit but it never did, so i was left with XtraMajestical
Any others in between was random like XtraTestical when tel was messing around saying that i should change it, so i did.
I have way to many different alterations of names, or random ones; yet I'll explain the first:
J420ac10k - J 420 ac 10 k yes i just blew ur mind i know
