Spurius is a Roman first name (i can't remember the proper terms off the top of my head) I like the sound of and have used it for many characters in games and Dexter was also in the list of Roman surnames, but I chose it at the time because I was obsessed with the Dexter tv series. So when it came to naming my fursona I stuck with Spurius Dexter mostly because I couldn't think of anything else and I used some Roman infulances for his design so I though it fit quite well 😊

It's borrowed from a character in the anime Wolf's rain, since I was mildly obsessed with that a few years ago.
Sometimes I use the variation "Chezana", which is just Cheza + the last two letters from my real name added. Yay, originality!

I don't really care for anime but I love Studio Ghibli.


Anyway, I guess another meaning for my name would be it sounds better than Faolin, and it's now my fursona's username.  :)

The name Biowolf is a reference to the game "BIOSHOCK". My favorite game ever! So when it was popular and I had trouble creating a user name, My brother suggested pairing it with my favorite animal. A grey wolf. Simple yet satisfying.

I came up with my name on day, when I sat down to think of a better username, to different stuff, than my previous (Mbholmgren11 - my first name is Marcus, my middle name is Bonde and my last name is Holmgren... and then 11)
I liked the raptor part in Egoraptors name, so I took that and modified it (a lot)
It doesn't really mean anything, though :P

Silentium and potens are latin for silence and powerful/potent, respectively.  I chose these words because I'm usually a quiet person.  I chose latin because it just sounds better.

Basically, Evna comes from "evne", meaning "ability", which I often paired with other words to make usernames in MMOs back when I was trying (and failing) to learn Norwegian.
The "evna" spelling came later when I converted the word to a fictional language I was developing, but according to Google Translate, "evna" already means "their ability", but I dunno if I should trust that. But it still works if it's true. :P

The "mishko" comes from the word "mishkoswIn", which means "strength" in the Potawatomi language.
My school was built in honor of a Potawatomi historical figure, and after seeing the word on a poster, I decided to adopt it as the name of a character in a fantasy story I was working on at the time, whose culture was inspired by Native American cultures.

I decided to use the name for myself as well, add on the "Evna-", and we get Evnamishko. It has the rough meaning of "ability and strength," and is a self-encouraging name. Plus I like the sound of it.

Not so interesting :P

Anonymous NAME TAKEN
Anony NAME TAKEN
Anoni SUCCESS

While that may be the true story a different story has arisen as well, which is more interesting. I have two fursona's, a fox and a tiger, both of which are called Anoni. This is because these fursonas are not separate characters, with their own backstory or what-not, they are simply abstract representations of myself within this community. Because they are based on me and not on them, they themselves have no singular identity, they are simply a shadow of my own identity and thus they are, anonymous.

Vinnie is a nickname from Vinnessa, which is part of one of my sona's names. The full name is Vinnessa Van Gogh, since she's a turtle and I'm a TMNT nerd and wanted her to have an artist name just like they do. >.>
