I bought myelf a 1-month subscription just so that I could change my name. 8D;
It's not that I dislike mudkipblader, it's just that I grew out of it. I'm using the same name now I've been using on tumblr for a while, the same name I've been using elsewhere on the internet.
But, hyphened, since there are already people who're using the full word "Kotowari" as their name. Both inactive accounts on tumblr and dA.

I think most people know "Kotowari" in the meaning of "refusal" (断り), but the meaning I'm using for my name is "meaning, truth, justice" (理り).
Separately, Koto and Wari can mean a whole lot of things. Koto is usually used for "word" (
言) or "thing" (こと), or the instrument. Wari is the infinitive form of "waru" (割る), meaning  "to cut, break, divide". And  in a way I think that works out quite well. I like swordsmen, yes.
In all seriousness though, I just like the word "kotowari". The sound, the meaning, everything. :'D

Very interesting! I'm often curious as to the reason behind people's usernames ^^
