From there I think Reddit picked it up and popularized it on r/prequelmemes

In Darth Plageuis they had a early conversation between the Sith Lord and a young Palpatine where Palps did say he had a first name and chose not to honor it because it was given to him by a father who hated him. He also said something to the effect that he chose to go simply by Palpatine because it he believed it to show that he was the best member of a dysfunctional family.
Even at a young age Palpatine was an ahole.
