I think it’s how you refer to yourself, but it’s been a while since I learned. Like there’s three or four versions of “I”, watashi, watakushi (very polite), and I forget the other two but one is extremely informal and possibly makes you sound like a delinquent.
Edit: ore and boku, can’t remember which is the informal one, somebody who knows more step in and add some extra context please.

Watashi is for adults and girls. Boku is for boys. Ore is for manly macho men.
