How nicknames for kotl were created

As we all know, all us KOTLers have nicknames. @ChessNerd1320 becomes CN, and @thegreatauk becomes auk. 

But the real question is:

How were these nicknames created?

Here, we will see how.

1. Initials, leaving out numbers.

Let's take @ChessNerd1320 as an example. We leave out the numbers, which becomes ChessNerd. If we 'split' the word into 2 real words, we get Chess Nerd. The initials are now CN.

Another example is @HorribleTomato. There are no numbers, so we just split the word into 2 real words. Horrible Tomato. If we take the initials, we get HT. However, HorribleTomato is also often called Tomato, as we will see in the next example.

2. Part of the name.

@HorribleTomato is a good example here. Since he is a person, which is a noun, it's not appropriate to make 'Horrible' as his nickname. So we take 'Tomato' as his nickname.

@rickzhang1977 is another example. Since he is a person, which is a noun, we do not need to include numbers. We get rick zhang. However, it's still pretty long so we just take out the 2nd ( it's the last name, i believe, if i'm wrong, correct me) and we get Rick. Rick is now his nickname.

So goes with @Jebediah_Mushroom, @EthanTan2509 and many other people.

I guess that's it. Thanks for reading this stupid forum.
