Edit Reason: let's not pretend it was ever meant to be a GOOD joke

Corruption of "cirrus", a type of cloud, because I was young at the time I made the name and also liked clouds I guess? I've definitely had my head in the clouds for a long time do ho ho ho
Usually I contract it down to Cirr unless I'm terrified of people finding my presence elsewhere on the internet and I only use Cirrial to try and form a little bit more distance from my acts as that name. Also this paragraph does not exist.
My ingame name is Lem Tables which is a huge injoke from outside the community in a different circle of friends I've known for a good six or seven years by now. I had a habit of drawing weird creatures that all had vaguely lemon/almond shaped heads to the point that I was forever associated with lemons, and Lem was me getting the closest thing to a name from that. This is also why the fantastic yellow hair -- gotta be yellow, lemons is yellow!
Tables is just because one day I changed my IRC quit message to "I am doctor Cirr the world's smartest table wait no I mean human" as an intentionally bad non-joke once and forgot I had it set to that for MONTHS. So with Lem and Dr. Tables as my names of choice I ended up smooshing them together to make the name.
the funny thing is in May this year I got my PhD and so now in some circles I'm just straight up "Dr. Cirr Tables" as stuff I've said and done here leaks via me into other places, and now I'm wondering if I should shoehorn a Dr. into my dumb spacemans name
