I've just realised......I began to use Ruby Chan online, when I didn't really know about the honorifics and nicknames that came on the end of japanese names......I could have just as easily called myself Ruby-kun!

isn't kun used with boys mainly tho

yeah it is but you can use it for girls too, though its uncommon I believe. vice-versa for -chan also

Chan can be used for cute boys and any children
and maybe kun for tomboys ?

-kun & -chan can also be used to refer to those younger than the person using the suffix. gender isnt taken into account.  but its mainly boys = -kun and girls = chan. both hold purposes of adding cuteness to the name

lol. well, so says my japanese book anyway. >_>

C3D - from my name Cedric, the first 3 letters, Ced - my nick name. *I added the 3 as a trade mark. i got it from my ex gf, because she uses the number 3 instead of the letter e.

A lot of people thinks that my username is named after a fruit..... but thats not the case.

I am a massive Tokyo Mew Mew and Bleach fan and the main characters from both of the Anime's is called Ichigo. Ichigo means Strawberry, so I choose that username because there are too many "Ichigo's" on forums.
Do NOT under estimate the powers of strawberries

i think i've explained mine like 2 or 3 times... but again:

Cosnett is my actual Last Name, and he is also the name of my DBZ FanCharacter, and in that story his split personality (with physical change) is called Vex. Cosnett deals with the split personality changing from one to the other (kinda like Dark and Daisuke) and eventually he manages to Tear both personalities apart to create two seperate people. Cosnett and Vex. But Later on down the road they both need eachothers help to stop a big bad guy (!) and they end up having to use the Fusion technique so they can become one person again. while in this state he is called: VexNet

My first name is Maureen and when I was younger my uncle always called me Moe as a nickname. Around that time I was a fan of the Disney Channel, and they had a program called Zoog disney. I decided to join their club online and I came up with the name moesy from my nickname Moe, as in, "moesy along, but because Zoog had a "Z" in it I changed the "s" in moesy to z and came up with, "moezy".

After awhile I became a fan of the show Cardcaptors, the horrible American version and went on the internet to find out more about the show and I certainly did! I found the wonderful world of Card Captor Sakura! From visiting various websites about Card Captor Sakura, I found the wonderful world of fanfiction.net! I found that they named most of the boys -kun, and the girls -chan, so when I registered with ff.net instead of just moezy, I decided to extend it and I became moezy-chan.

My username was inspired by a sticker I brought at Sakura Con. I stuck it on my cellphone, and it says, " No One Knows I'm a Moon Princess ". After that, my friend started to call me Moon Princess. ( Although, honestly, I'm not pretty like serena. My hair isn't long and blonde nor am I as freakin' skinny as she is. nn;; ) Anyyway. I don't know, it stuck with me, I guess. Then the 18 part is simply because I am 18 finally.

Thats pretty much it. =)
