When you see a user with the moniker Ted2200, or Kelly104, do you ever wonder if there was a Ted or Kelly #1, etc.?

Asked by Hypocrisy_Central (26879points) September 22nd, 2014

I see on sites frequently a user with a designation like Bill1004, Sam5002, or Sherrie84, etc. I wonder if those were just random numbers generated by the site when the user joined and they just accepted that default, or if the user themselves randomly chose it or because the numbers had some significant meaning? If there is a Bill1004 as if he was the 1,004th “Bill” to form an account, is there a ”Bill01” out there?
