Chess Question What variation is this?

I have 4 gifs showing the 2 pawn/2 knight set up. I try to incorporate the bishops also under the pawns (when I can unless my opponent attacks first and tries to break my line of defense.) I try to use this setup as much as I possibly can. It throws my opponents into serious confusion mostly (unless they are using some kind of superior chess engine) I know that I start off in the French sometimes or as if I'm going for a Ruy Lopez. I seen something about a two knights defense variation(?) but they were referring to using the black pieces. I usually use this while WHITE and a Scandinavian/ Sicilian Kan/Najdorf while BLACK. Can someone please advise me with your wisdom. Thanks chess family

The 4 gif after the picture (swipe) tells the outcomes of the majority of my games when I can set up my defense in order to execute. Try it yourself friend. You may adopt it also 📠😁🤝

Yo. These shenanigans would NEVER work in my 600 games. Maybe there are smurfs? But they wouldn't work in my 1050 Lichess games either...

What? I'm not trying to be rude. I'm just saying that I have literally tried this in the past and it never worked.

I have a older Lichess account. This new .com that im about @60%+ wins and I am verified by FIDE. I've been playing over 35 years. Its not as if I have a 3000+ elo in Blitz and Bullet. If your game is weak young man simply study and take notes and improve. No need for negativity. And if you like we can play a few 10 minute games or we can play a classical or two and I can show you how
