Basically, why did you choose it? Don't give away details you don't want to share.
I'm asking because I saw Telemachus in a RE text book today. He was a warrior, I think! I just found it interesting, and as soon as I saw it I thought of the Telemachus here on Scratch. Funny, isn't it?
I chose my name because, uh, I like doughnuts, and I wanted a word beginning with 'd', so I chose 'dancing'. And added 'the' to make it sound posh.
Here are some names that I'm trying to figure out: FlexiStudio, rufflebee, turntechGodhead. Just some that got me thinking.

Some of you should know where mine comes from. But here's a more detailed one:
I needed an online username. So, thinking it over, I originally came up with V82. Now, V82 stands for Vigilante: 2nd Offense, which is a Twisted Metal style game. But that got really boring quick. I needed something else to add. 'Blaze" seemed like a good choice, so blazev82 became the new one. The I added the 'R" to the end of blaze. So, up to blazerv82. Then, I went on to some other ones, such as Raven-X, Raze, and a few others. Those are for games where they call you by name ("Look over there blazerv82, it's a cave!" doesn't sound right). Now I'm lazy, and just type BV82. It's still the same blazerv82, but in condensed form.
Raze comes from a combo of Raven and another one which I forgot. It's was my friends and I Brawl username.

My username is really simple: my name backwards and 123.

Wow, I always assumed you and BV82 were not at all the same.

Wow, sounds cool! Retro game, I take it? I find multiple usernames unbearably confusing.

Katana098- sword, tried to say katana for original runescape account but it was taken so I added 098.
Juststickman- this account was originally just for stickman animations.
Justtestingstickman- test account, so I added a "testing"
Tec tec tec- steel sentinels joke
deblarg- inside joke

Well now, my username doesn't really have much of a story. As you may know, Telemachus is a character from Homer's Odyssey, an epic written somewhere around 850 BCE. Telemachus is the son of Odysseus, the main character and hero of the poem. When I joined Scratch, I was currently writing an essay on the Odyssey, outlining Telemachus's role in the epic. He's a character I can relate to, and plus, he has a cool name.
Another username I enjoy is Gilgamesh, but that's another tale altogether

Nice! Apparently, he was some sort of person who leapt inbetween two gladiators just as they were about to kill each other. As a result, Telemachus was stabbed by accident.
He has a classy, yet modern sounding name.

Ah, the Telemachus you are speaking of is a different Telemachus, one who is slightly less famous than the one who inspired my username. Still, I've heard of him, he's a cool guy as well.

I guess all people with your username are awesome, and I'm surprised there has been more than one person in history with your name.

It's a really fun and unusual puzzle game that was on Warnerbros.com (a couple years back). Don't know if it's still there, but you should play it if it is
