Greetings TL! first blog
Well, as the subject may suggest, I need a new name. This name is bad, I made it when I was young, and I just used it because I can't think of any other ones. My name isn't Sam, and I don't Camp in First Person Shooters anymore, this name is Void.
But Alas, I can't make up a new name, I'm terrible at it :O. I never thought that coming up with an ID could be so hard.
And I need one before I get a lot of posts/play too many games/place in a tourny/become a stream mod(lol) otherwise there will be so much confusion!
But anyways. My test for a name is kind of stupid, but works I guess. It doesn't have to be a specific type of Name (i.e. two words, one word, super catchy, etc.) It just has to sound Ok when a caster, or someone calls you by it.
Cause really, do you really want the name (nsfw) + Show Spoiler +lickmyclit? seriously, there was this player named just that in a certain tribes game that I can't recall. The caster could seriously just be doing play by play, and say that with a straight face, and keep going.
The very few that I have though of so far are as follows: Synergism World Double Mundo(wouldn't use this one..lol)
Otherwise, I'm stumped, and these don't particularly do it for me.
Ask me any questions you want as well, I know some people figured out stuff by song name combinations, favorite foods, etc etc.
Thanks in Advance!

idk, ussually names have an histiry... a meaning...
"masnipmac"

Okay, so pick some general word, like 'fate' 'revenge' 'happy' or whatever floats your boat and then go to google translate and translate it into different languages and pick which one you like the best.
Its how I picked a clan name once. :D

what I usually do is that I twist something around the name of a character in a game I loved back when I was a kid so you could try that

This is a good thing it seems, but the only 2 game characters that I really like are named
Double Zero (Both from Megaman X series)
And Double is one that I have already listed, and while I like the name, I'm not completely sure, but I feel like I'm missing something.

I have shared these once before but i've never seen them used, i would use them if i didn't love my current one so much: Infidelcastro Lordoftheping knightnight or nightknight
edit: some shorter ones! bucket yarn cpt.curtis pwny yardsale

I created a similar thread here in blogs a while back, when my original name was Killykill. As you see, the result was not too exciting.
It's much easier to pick a name that you come up with yourself, so I would go ahead and say Synergism is your best bet. Sounds pretty good, and isn't just a random noun like "world". You promote synergy, which is a good thing. So there you have a meaning without it sounding silly.
+ Show Spoiler +I was originally going to say lickmyclit, but then I read the rest of your post

Could always name yourself a variation of the professionals, a parody if you will. For Example:
Destiny - Chance IdrA - ArdI NesTea - BisQuick HuK - sHuKs Moon - Sun Boxer - Underwear DayNine - DayNein! JulyZerg - JanuaryTerran
Okay the last one I don't know if that's how july does his name but I hear everybody say Julyzerg when talking to him so I am just going to assume.
or you could pretend you are korean, then try and think of a bad ass name in korean, then translate it into English only to find it translates into:
Flower Butterflies CupCaKes SailorMoon SOSBrigade
You know, something like that.

you need something intimidating so the moment your opponent sees your name in the loading screen they're like "oh shit"
i suggest "mr pink"
|
Kinda into the same track as drryworrx. Go to sc2ranks and translate the korean and chinese nicknames you find and use one of those. You'll probably end up with something like PositionLake but hopefully a better nonsense mash of two words.
#1 GM China = Fast travel up #7 = Viking Mars ect
EDIT: #15 GM China = Pakistan Federal British Tongji Portland WTFMATE

As a wise man named Nightstand once told me, "Fantasy names are too hard to pronounce, just play it safe and go with an inanimate object."
Probably the best lesson I ever learned from playing WoW.

Rofl, nice.
That is pretty smart.
My Fantasy name was Galtath, and people just ended up calling me Gal. lol

One thing you can do is take an offensive phrase and reverse the first letters of it. For example, I have used the following names for various online games:
Yuck Fou Tairy Hesticles Duck my Sick MellyKilkies
