Well, I'm a pretty Righteous Bro.......


And the sir is just for part of a forum clan thingy. :P


Oops,
That's my screen name's reason, my fursona's name is Terry Bear because my real life last name means bear.  :P

Well, I did a rearranging of my name, Cameron, and my last name, and took my favorite word, fail (lolz  ^_^) and I took letters from each and came up with Chroin. :D

Ryffnah was the main character in a novel I wrote the first fifty pages of way back in high school.  It was about first contact with a tiger-like race of aliens.  She was the captain of the alien ship, and she had kind of bronze on copper stripes.  I completely lived in that novel for the first two years of high school, but then it got eclipsed by all the college-prep classes, applying to college, and then, eventually, college.  By the time I had enough free time to really think about working on it again, my writing style and perspective on the world had changed too much for me to be able to write an end that would match the beginning without a serious rewrite.

Hmm...Looks like a lot of people's forum names are their fursona's name.  o.O

But as you can see, hopefully...I am a different case. My fursona is not named Srgntcuddles xD

It's Reno O' Malley. Some might recognize the name, it's a place in Nevada, the state I live in. Ooor, if you are a gamer like myself you might recall the name from the Final Fantasy 7 story.

This is Reno(Red haired guy) and his partner Rude(Bald guy). Reno is kind of a cocky and care free guy. He's also a bit clumsy, probably a comic relief character the way he's portrayed in Advent children. But my Reno, isn't really like him.

This is my Reno. He's a rabbit. As you can see, not much in similarity other than the name and dressy look. Art done by our very own Mortis Reptus. Thanks again.

But onto the last name. O' Malley. Reno, being Irish, needed a defining last name. At least one that screamed Irish. So I chose O' Malley. It was purely at random, I don't know if it means anything significant or anything. It was just to make Reno appear more Irish without much effort. You also might recognize the name O' Malley from from a web show called Red Vs Blue. O' Malley is an evil Freelancer, but they're all pretty evil...

Well, that's the story behind Reno O' Malley's name.

ceil's a gray-blue color. Plus I was listening to "It's Nice to Know You Work Alone" by Silversun Pickups and thought I heard its name(I didnt) so I thought that'd be cool.

Dander was originally short for Dandreline, but Dander stuck because it became a pun, as dander rubs off on people. Ever since I was in preschool my furry games and roleplays were always adopted by my friends, who joined me in everything from guarding our eggs to dressing up TY animals for roleplay.

My fursona name is Datfox Coleo because
1. No one else used it
2. I always like the first part of a name to be Dat, don't know why
3. I dunno
4. Coleo is the name of the fursona family I joined, don't know why it is called Coleo.
5. Datfox is pronounced dat-fawx. lol

Well, my name went through many stages. It was RigorMortis. I was known by that alias because of my main character in my stories, RigorMortis.
RigorMortis came from my love for forensic pathology; it's the first stage of death where the body stiffens.

Mortis.Reptus came along after I realized I didn't want to be tagged with my main character Rigor. Looking over my cast of characters they seemed to all have the generalness of being dead or morbid reptiles, so I retained Mortis and went into latin. I coined the name "Mortis Reptus" which meant dead lizard. I thought it suited me, so I stuck with it.

My fursonas name is James Fisher
I chose james Because i Found it very related to my real name, Also the name also means ''May he protect'' which suits me quite well^^

Fisher symbolises my patience and tolerance. i wanted to have a name that was a kind of reflection of my personality

My fursona's name is Takarah Luna Ravei... Uh... I'm assuming it's Japanese, but I don't know... I came up with the name after finding out/becoming a therian and meeting my spirit animal (a black wolf) who looked like she should have that name...
