More Original Alias?

ThaldarinThaldarin Alonzi! Join Date: 2003-07-15 Member: 18173Members, Constellation
<div class="IPBDescription">do i need one? opinions...</div> So I'm getting bored with the alias I've had for a couple of years, and its totally unoriginal and can mistake me for someone else quite easily as the name is fairly common.

So as I'm just off down town for a little while, I leave everyone with this.

Do I need one? Suggestions? Comments on reaching a new alias decision.

I'm terrible with names which is why you can see I'm "Thursday".

Thanks.

    Hmm.. I guess it depends on how badly you really want a new name.

    As for something totally orginal, hehe, I seem to be fairly good at that, but no actually likes my suggestions other then me so <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I find basing your new alias off your old one works quite well. I.e, Nil_IQ = Nilson.

    You could be... um....

    Thurry?

    I am obviously not the right person to ask about original names.

    Heh I was thinking of something along the lines of Wishmaster or Thaldarin?
  • SnidelySnidely Join Date: 2003-02-04 Member: 13098Members
    "Wishmaster" sounds like a bad children's movie. Like The Neverending Story.

    <i>The neverending stooooooooooooreeeeeeeee</i>

    Anyway. I reckon you should take a combination of people names in this thread. Maybe...

    "Narfear".

    Or....

    "Thansday".

    "ZERO IQ"?

    "WoT Byte"?

    "The Popinator"?

    Thaldarin would work.

    as long as it's not something like 'thursdosity' or whatever ^~

    personally it's hard to recommend a name to someone unless you know them real well. It's best to use something with personal significance. People's tastes change over time and stuff but usually there's certain things you like or love that stick with you forever.

    That or just use something that describes some part of you I guess. Mine is sorta based off my starsign and the fact I fit the book description of a Gemini down to scary levels :3


    <b>edit:</b> added an 's'! can you spot it? huh? huh??? :o

    I saw Taldarin on SC Character index, and added a 'h' in to get Thaldarin. Then it occured to me I could make the name from "Thansal", "Thursday" and "Talesin". <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> I'll request for a name change later on this evening.

    How about:

    <b><span style='color:red'>DANGER ALERT SYSTEMS</span></b>

    Or if that doesn't work (due to spaces):

    <b><span style='color:red'>DANGERALERTSYSTEMS</span></b>

    OR MAYBE:

    <b><span style='color:red'>DangerAlertSystems</span></b>

    Whoah, that's awesome. Everyone knows that if your online nickname is something odd or not-english, you suck at it. Don't worry, Thursday. I'm backing you up here. Jimmeh obviously doesn't know how to spell.

    Whatever you pick, make sure a google search of it turns up nothing. My name is completely unique and it's been pretty helpful whenever I sign up for stuff or make a game account.

    Why don't you just call yourself "Dethridge"?

    I'm only ever called that when playing football, at all other times it's JD.

    Well, it's better to pick a name that you already have some sort of attachment for. That way, when the revolution happens and our real names our replaced by our internet aliases, you won't feel sad. Because once you've been branded by a magic robot, there's no changing things.
