You don't always think of the perfect username when you're making an account, and that definitely applies when we're talking about Twitter.
Maybe you want something fun, or just something with more of a ring to it, but you can't come up with anything. So you default to one of the basic suggested handles with your first and last name, and maybe a number or something...until one day it hits you.
Damn, that would've been the perfect Twitter handle, you think to yourself. I wish I could change it.

If you can't have the handle you want, maybe you can at least have this.

And you're done! We hope your name is everything you wanted it to be.
