==Name History==

AZMindroma's name has an extensive development history that started in 2013. [[File:MindromedaGalaxy.jpg|200px|thumb|alt=A mostly dark photo of fireworks, imitating the look of a galaxy|The "Mindromeda Galaxy."]]

===AZ===

The first part of the name, AZ, is an abbreviation of the word "Animationszentrale" (translating to "Animation Central" in German), a word made up by AZ in 2017 when searching for a name for a new YouTube channel.

The first part of the name, AZ, is an abbreviation of the word "'''Animationszentrale'''" (translating to "Animation Central" in German), a word made up by AZ in 2017 when searching for a name for a new YouTube channel.

This name was chosen due to his interest in creating and uploading animations on YouTube (more specifically, stickman animations using the [[wikipedia:Pivot Animator|Pivot Animator]] software) and his intention to create a channel that can be watched by people of all ages, as many stickman animations watched by AZ in his childhood included content not suitable for children. The channel ~~would~~ therefore be an animation channel ~~and a central one~~, as it'd be suitable for all ages.

The channel was therefore envisioned to be a central animation channel, as it'd be suitable for all ages to watch it.

The abbreviation "AZ" was formed due to his interest in the international community in late 2017/early 2018, where communicating with a German name, especially a long one like "Animationszentrale," was difficult. For this reason, he abbreviated his name to AZ.

===Mindroma===

The word "Mindroma" is not a word consisting of any other words in the English dictionary; however, it still is a short form of the also made-up but also from a synonym of the [[wikipedia:Andromeda Galaxy|Andromeda Galaxy]]-inspired word "Mindromeda." This name was added on New Year's Eve between 2017 and 2018, when a specific image ~~taken~~ of fireworks gave the impression of looking like a galaxy. Wanting to give this apparent galaxy a modification of the word "Andromeda," "Mindromeda" was performed. A ~~shortage~~ of the word happened in early 2018, where the term "Mindroma" was thought to fit better.

===Sticky===

This former name was first established in 2013 when AZMindroma began to write his own comic books due to a newfound enthusiasm for writing them. However, due to a lack of drawing talent, the characters' art style in the comics had been reduced to stickmen. To find a name for the main character, the name "Sticky (the Stickman)" was chosen.

'''Mooses''' is a community meme that has been created and popularized by AZMindroma. The moose drawing was originally drawn in August 2017, with a group of people making a cult of it in October 2017. After AZ joined the Rolling Lounge server, he posted an image of the moose while SHAvibe and he were talking, upon which SHAvibe asked whether he wanted to add it as an emoji. With AZ agreeing, the moose emoji was one of the first emojis ever created in the server.<ref>https://discord.com/channels/400983101507108874/400983101507108876/403255461479972864</ref>

Upon AZ getting staff, the popularization had continued and found appeal due to his place in the server hierarchy. Due to the sheer repetition of the phrase and the way the drawing looked, the other members also started talking about mooses, many fan arts were created as well. For a polemic explanation, AZMindroma had posted a message on July 4th of 2020:
