Nickname selection. Choosing a pseudonym for a positive influence on fate and character - what famous pseudonyms mean How can you come up with a pseudonym for yourself

Representatives creative professions pseudonyms are often used, the reasons for this can be very different, I have always wondered why people take a different name for themselves, and in general it is surprising to find out that the name of the writer you are used to is not real. I decided to compile famous writers using an alias.

1. Boris Akunin, aka Anatoly Brusnikin and Anna Borisova - pseudonyms of Grigory Chkhartishvili

Initially, he published his works as B. Akunin. The Japanese word "akunin" (jap. 悪人), according to one of the heroes of the novel "Diamond Chariot" is translated as "scoundrel, villain", but on a gigantic scale, in other words, outstanding personality standing on the side of evil. And it was precisely such villains that Erast Fandorin met throughout his career. Deciphering "B" as "Boris" appeared a few years later, when the writer began to be interviewed frequently.

He publishes critical and documentary works under his real name.

2. George Sand - real name Amandine Aurora Lucile Dupin, married - Baroness Dudevant.

At the beginning of his writing career Aurora wrote with Jules Sando (French novelist): the novels The Commissioner (1830), Rose and Blanche (1831), which had great success with readers, came out for his signature, since the stepmother Casimir Dudevant (Aurora's husband) did not want see your name on book covers. Already on her own, Aurora began a new work on the novel "Indiana", the theme of which was the opposition of a woman looking for ideal love, a sensual and conceited man. Sando approved the novel, but refused to sign someone else's text. Aurora chose a male pseudonym: it became for her a symbol of getting rid of the slave position that condemned a woman to modern society. Keeping the surname Sand, she added the name Georges.

3. Richard Bachman is the pseudonym under which Stephen King published the books Fury, The Long Walk, Men at work”, “Running Man”, and “Slimming”

There are two versions of the reasons that prompted King to take a pseudonym. The first is to see if his alter ego can achieve the same success as himself. The second explanation is that the publishing standards of the time allowed only one book per year. The surname Bachman was not taken by chance, he is a fan musical group Bachman-Turner Overdrive.

4. Joe Hill Real name - Joseph Hillstrom King, son of Stephen King.

Wanting to achieve literary success on his own, without using the fame of his father's name, he adopted the pseudonym "Joe Hill". It was both short for his real name Joseph and his middle name Hillstrom, and alluded to the man after whom, in fact, he received the name Joseph Hillstrom - a famous American labor activist of the early XX century and songwriter Joe Hill, who was unjustly accused of murdered and executed in an American prison in 1915.

5. Robert Galbraith is the pseudonym of JK Rowling, used for the Cormoran Strike detective cycle.

According to Rowling herself, the publication of the book under a pseudonym relieved her of the pressure to meet the expectations of readers and meet the fixed level of quality, and, on the contrary, made it possible to hear criticism of a work that does not contain her name. She told the Sunday Times magazine that she hoped that her involvement in writing the novel would not be revealed soon.

The publisher's website claimed that Robert Galbraith is the pseudonym of a former member of the Royal Military Police's Special Investigations Department, who quit in 2003 and moved into the private security business.

6. George Elliot real name Mary Ann Evans

Like many other writers of the 19th century (George Sand, Marco Vovchok, the Bronte sisters - “Carrer, Ellis and Acton Bell”, Krestovsky-Khvoshchinskaya) - Mary Evans used a male pseudonym in order to evoke in the public serious attitude to their writings and taking care of the inviolability of their personal lives. (In the 19th century, her writings were translated into Russian without disclosing a pseudonym, which was inclined like a male name and surname: "George Eliot's novel").

7. Kir Bulychev real name Igor Vsevolodovich Mozheiko

Published fantastic works exclusively under a pseudonym. The first fantasy work, the story "The Debt of Hospitality", was published as a "translation of the story of the Burmese writer Maun Sein Ji". Subsequently, Bulychev used this name several more times, but most of the fantastic works were published under the pseudonym "Kirill Bulychev" - the pseudonym was composed of the name of his wife - Kira and the maiden name of the writer's mother. Subsequently, the name "Kirill" on the covers of books began to be written in abbreviated form - "Kir." There was also a combination of Kirill Vsevolodovich Bulychev. The writer kept his real name secret until 1982, because he believed that the leadership of the Institute of Oriental Studies would not consider science fiction a serious occupation, and was afraid that after the disclosure of the pseudonym he would be fired.

8. Arkady Gaidar, real name Golikov

Vladimir Soloukhin in the artistic and publicistic book "Salt Lake" cites a story according to which the pseudonym "Gaidar" is associated with the activities of A.P. Golikov in the position of head of the 2nd combat region of the CHON of the Achinsk district of the Yenisei province (now the Republic of Khakassia) in 1922-1924 years:

“Gaidar,” Misha said slowly, as usual, “the word is purely Khakassian. Only correctly it sounds not "Gaidar", but "Khaidar"; and it means not “going forward” and not “forward-looking”, but simply “where”. And this word stuck to him because he asked everyone: “Haydar?” That is, where to go? He did not know any other Khakas words.

The name "Gaidar" reminded the writer of his school years, bearing in mind that "G" in this name meant "Golikov", "ay" - "Arkady", and "gift", as if echoing the hero of Alexander Dumas D'Artagnan, "in the French manner" meant "from Arzamas ". Thus, the name "Gaidar" stands for "Golikov Arkady from Arzamas".

The third version of the origin of the pseudonym and surname: from the Ukrainian "gaidar" is a shepherd of sheep. Arkady Golikov's childhood is connected with the Gaidars, as he spent several summer months with them for several years in a row. He liked these places and childhood memories so much that he chose the pseudonym Arkady Gaidar.

9. Teffi Real name Nadezhda Aleksandrovna Lokhvitskaya

For the first time, the name Teffi (still without initials) appears in the 51st issue of the Theater and Art magazine, in December 1901 (this is the second publication of the writer). Perhaps Taffy took a pseudonym because long before her literary activity fame was gained by her older sister, the poetess Mirra Lokhvitskaya, whom critics called the "Russian Sappho". (By the beginning of her literary career, Teffi had already divorced her first husband, by whom she bore the surname Buchinskaya). According to the researchers of Teffi's work, E. M. Trubilova and D. D. Nikolaev, a pseudonym for Nadezhda Alexandrovna, who loved hoaxes and jokes, and was also the author of literary parodies, feuilletons, became part of literary game aimed at creating an appropriate image of the author.

The version of the origin of the pseudonym is stated by the writer herself in the story "Pseudonym". She did not want to sign her texts with a male name, as contemporary writers often did: “I didn’t want to hide behind a male pseudonym. Cowardly and cowardly. It is better to choose something incomprehensible, neither this nor that. But what? You need a name that would bring happiness. Best of all is the name of some fool - fools are always happy. She “remembered one fool, really excellent and, in addition, one who was lucky, which means that fate itself recognized him as an ideal fool. His name was Stepan, and his family called him Steffi. Having discarded the first letter out of delicacy (so that the fool would not become arrogant), "the writer "decided to sign her play" Teffi "". After the successful premiere of this play, in an interview with a journalist, when asked about her pseudonym, Teffi replied that "this is ... the name of one fool ... that is, such a surname." The journalist remarked that he was "told it was from Kipling." Taffy, who remembered such a name from Kipling, as well as the song "Taffy was a walesman / Taffy was a thief ..." from Trilby, agreed with this version.

10. Mark Twain Real name Samuel Langhorne Clemens

Clemens claimed that the pseudonym Mark Twain was taken by him in his youth from the terms of river navigation. Then he was a pilot's assistant on the Mississippi, and the cry "mark twain" (English mark twain, literally - "mark deuce") meant that, according to the mark on the lotlin, the minimum depth suitable for the passage of river vessels was reached - 2 fathoms (≈ 3 .7 m).

However, there is a version about the literary origin of this pseudonym: in 1861, Vanity Fair published humorous story Artemus Ward (real name Charles Brown) "Northern Star" about three sailors, one of whom was named Mark Twain. Samuel was very fond of the comic section of this magazine and read Ward's works in his first speeches.

In addition to "Mark Twain", Clemens signed once in 1896 as "Sir Louis de Comte" (fr. Sieur Louis de Conte) - under this name he published his novel "Personal Memories of Joan of Arc by Sir Louis de Comte, her page and secretary.

11. Max Fry pseudonym two authors - Svetlana Martynchik and Igor Stepin

The book cycle was written by Svetlana Martynchik in collaboration with Igor Stepin and published under the pseudonym "Max Fry". The authors maintained some anonymity by not revealing a pseudonym and not appearing in public precisely as the authors of the novels (while they were known as artists). On the site "Physiognomy of the Russian Internet" under the name of Max Fry, there was a portrait of an unknown black man. Together with the jokes of the Azbuka publishing house that Max Fry is a blue-eyed black man, this served as food for rumors that “literary blacks” write under a pseudonym.

My pseudonym was chosen precisely because of my hero. I wanted the name of the author and the name of the character from whom the story is being told to match. Svetlana Martynchik

Maria Zakharova notes that the language game characteristic of Max Frei's texts also manifests itself in the choice of a pseudonym: "for example, Max Frei - max frei (German) -" maximally free "" and "it is important to note that both Max Frei and Holm Van Zaichik - fictitious, “game”, pseudonyms of Russian-speaking authors"""

12. O. Henry real name William Sidney Porter

In prison, Porter worked in the infirmary as a pharmacist (a rare profession in prison came in handy) and wrote stories, looking for a pseudonym for himself. In the end, he settled on the O. Henry variant (often spelled incorrectly like the Irish surname O'Henry - O'Henry). Its origin is not entirely clear. The writer himself claimed in an interview that Henry's name was taken from a column secular news in the newspaper, and the initial O. is chosen as the simplest letter. He told one of the newspapers that O. stands for Olivier ( french name Olivier), and indeed, he published several stories there under the name Olivier Henry.

According to others, this is the name of the famous French pharmacist Etienne Ocean Henry, whose medical reference book was popular at that time.

Another hypothesis was put forward by the writer and scientist Guy Davenport: “Oh. Henry" is nothing more than an abbreviation of the name of the prison where the author was imprisoned - Ohio Penitentiary (Ohio State Penitentiary). Also known as the Arena District, which burned to the ground on April 21, 1930.

Al Jennings, who was in prison with Porter and became famous as the author of the book Through the Darkness with O. Henry , where there are such lines: "The beloved returned at 12 o'clock. Tell me, about Henry, what is the sentence?" .

There is an opinion that "Known American writer W. Porter took the pseudonym O. Henry in honor of the physicist J. Henry, whose name was constantly pronounced with admiration by a school teacher: “Oh! Henry! It was he who discovered that the discharge of a capacitor through a coil is oscillatory! "" His first story under this pseudonym - "Dick the Whistler's Christmas Present", published in 1899 in McClure's Magazine - he wrote in prison.

19. Daniil Kharms Real name Yuvachev

Around 1921-1922, Daniil Yuvachev chose the pseudonym "Kharms" for himself. Researchers have put forward several versions of its origin, finding origins in English, German, French, Hebrew, Sanskrit. It should be noted that in the writer's manuscripts there are about forty pseudonyms (Khharms, Khaarms, Dandan, Charms, Karl Ivanovich Shusterling and others). When applying for entry into the All-Russian Union of Poets on October 9, 1925, Kharms answers the questions of the questionnaire in the following way:

Alias ​​selection

Question:

Hello Oleg Petrovich and Valentina Vladimirovna! Help me, please, in the selection alias for creative activity . I am DJing (I play music). I can't imagine how creative pseudonym. I really like Latin music, Latin countries, the sun, the beach, carnivals. I would like an alias from this topic. Thank you in advance. Let me know what else you need from me for your help.

With all respect, Andrew

Answer:

For those who want to choose a pseudonym, we can offer a pseudonym in three options:

Name (variant names)

Surname (surname options)

Name and surname.

Please write what set of programs (energies) your pseudonym should include:

For creative activities

For success, fame, fame

For money, business, income increase

To attract the opposite sex

For love and family

Other programs (write which ones)

A combination of several of the above programs (energies).

For example, a pseudonym for creative activity can help in creativity, give inspiration, ideas, but at the same time not bring money. Or money will come and go.

Picking up a pseudonym, focusing on only one program, is much easier. Because creativity and business at the same time is a rare combination. Creativity and fame are programs close to each other.

And also write examples of aliases that you like so that we can navigate to your taste.

Alias ​​selection

We can choose a nickname for you. This requires the following data:

Your photo (but not portfolio), without retouching. Several photos are possible.

Date and place of birth (desirable).

In what creative direction do you plan to develop.

What surnames (first names, combination of first and last names) do you like. Please write a list (10-20 options) if you have one. We will consider your options first, maybe some of them are suitable for you. If you don't have any options, we will find the options ourselves.

From which egregor to choose a pseudonym - Russian, European, etc.

Where do you plan to make a career - in Russia, Europe or others.

We will offer you at least 5 euphonious options with good programs creativity, fame, success, career, money. If you want some other programs in the alias (other than those listed) - write.

Usually preparation of consultation takes not less than 5-7 days.

In Russian, in addition to your options, we offer our options.

Aliases in another language(except Russian) we select and diagnose only from your options.

After the consultation, you can order diagnostics of new variants, but diagnostics of new variants will be paid additionally. Therefore, before the consultation, we always ask you to send a list of your options (the more, the better), so that at least 1-2 options turn out to be successful. Therefore, if you have a desire to consider new options for a pseudonym after consultation, then you will need to pay for the diagnosis of each pseudonym.

On our site we offer a huge selection of names ...

Service prices are indicative and subject to change. Therefore, before making a translation, please first write a letter with an order for any service (consultation, diagnostics).

To understand what a new name (full name) is, let's give an example:

A person needs to participate in a car race. He wants to win. He orders a car with great technical specifications, pays for the development of such a car, and receives it.

But buying a great car doesn't mean it will win the race.

First, he needs professional quality racer.

Secondly, he needs time to get used to the new car, to feel how it works.

Thirdly, professional racers who can also have good cars can participate in the race.

It is clear that a good professional racer on a bad car will not win.

But if the driver is bad, and his car is great, he will not see the 1st place either.

In other words, if a person wants to succeed in business, he must have some qualities of a businessman. If he does not have such qualities, then a new (even very successful) name will not make him a good businessman.

The name can activate and strengthen the program that the person already has. But you need to understand that it takes time to strengthen and activate the program.

Some people need a week to feel an improvement in business, while others need much more time. Maybe a year or two. It all depends on the individual experience of the person. And the name (full name) only helps or slows down.

If a person has the necessary energy (qualities of character), then he himself can choose for himself suitable name(Name) with the necessary programs.

If a person does not have the necessary qualities, then he cannot fully objectively evaluate the new name (full name) offered to him.

An inexperienced motorist cannot objectively choose the right car. He may like a beautifully designed car, but with a weak filling.

Therefore, it is advisable to seek help from professionals.

Everyone has their own. The main thing is to choose a harmonious, memorable author's name that emphasizes the individuality and dignity of the owner. Many celebrities entered world history under a pseudonym. Millions of fans remember Marilyn Monroe, Bruce Lee, Mark Twain, Freddie Mercury, Botticelli, without knowing their real names.

More often than others in their labor activity pseudonyms are used by writers, actors, singers, artists, athletes, politicians. Obviously, most of them are people of bohemian professions. Freelancers can also be classified as creative people in need of self-expression. A pseudonym that will lead the author to success is not as difficult to pick up as it seems at first glance. It is enough to use a few useful tips.

Tip #1. Alias ​​can be made from variations real surnames and name or use the names of relatives. For example, Demetria Jean Harmon shortened her name, retained her first husband's surname, and is now known as Hollywood actress Demmy Moor. Children's writer and the poet Nikolai Vasilyevich Korneichukov signed his works with the pseudonym Korney Chukovsky.

Tip #2. Successful pseudonyms are obtained by replacing your own last name and / or first name with more “speaking” ones. The new name can be tied to the type of activity, positive qualities or simply beautiful words. So the Soviet pop artist Lazar Weinsbein became Leonid Utyosov, and the singer David Bowie was born David Robert Jones. Bowie's surname comes from the name of the knife.

Tip #3. The pseudonym can be decorated with noble and national particle prepositions “fon”, “la”, “de”, “poppy” and others. Fashion model Heather Rene Sweet chose the pseudonym Dita Von Teese for filming in Playboy magazine, under which she continued her outrageous career. Singer/songwriter Chris de Burgh's real name is Christopher John Davison.

Tip #4. A new name is not always a name in the usual sense. They can be anyone interesting word or an arbitrary set of letters. British musician and leader of the rock band Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner chose the pseudonym Sting (translated from English as "sting"). Singers Glucose and Pink (from the English "Pink" - pink) were born under the names Natasha Ionova and Alisha Beth Moore, respectively.

Tip #5. Before choosing a pseudonym, you should think about how it will sound in 10, 20 or 30 years. The name should not focus on fleeting fashion, should not be too "childish" and, of course, should not bother the owner over the years.

Tip #6. If no interesting story, then it is better to invent it. Clients and acquaintances will definitely ask about the origin of the nickname. A thorough study of the etymology and meaning of the concepts that gave rise to the pseudonym will not be superfluous. A beautiful sound can have an extremely repulsive meaning.

Tip #7. The alias should not be too common or similar to an already famous names or last name. Unique name very useful from the point of view of Internet search engines and is more quickly remembered by users.

Tip #8. Before you start using a pseudonym, you need to check its pronunciation and translation into other languages. In foreign countries, the chosen pseudonym may mean something funny, vulgar, or even forbidden. This moment is especially relevant for freelancers planning to work with foreigners.

Tip #9. After the final choice of a pseudonym, you can begin to popularize it. Now all Internet activity should be tied to a new name - social networks, Email, domain, forum profiles, etc.

Tip #10. Some pseudonym holders go further and change their passport and other documents under their new name. So did the pop artists Valeria (Alla Perfilova), Katya Lel (Ekaterina Chuprina), Dima Bilan (Victor Belan). This phenomenon has become most widespread among the stars of show business, but freelancers also have something to think about.

Internet. There are a lot of interesting things here even for the “old-timers”, but for beginners it is generally a separate state, with its own laws, rules and even language. Like a native language, but somehow incomprehensible. For example. Whatever site you go to, you can look, you can read, but you can’t download or discuss something. Vigilant, but invisible "guardians" require you to enter some kind of nickname or register. You register - and here is a nickname. Only this time it needs to be invented. But how do you come up with something you have no idea about?

Your name on the Internet or how to come up with a nickname for yourself - 7 ways

The question of a “tricky” and memorable nickname worries not only beginners. "Veterans" of the Internet also often break their heads over this. But first, let's find out what a "nickname" (or otherwise "login") is and what it is for.

So, a nickname (correctly “nickname”) for an inhabitant of the worldwide network is the same as a creative pseudonym for a writer. By the way, this word is translated from English as “pseudonym, nickname”. However, not only writers, bloggers, Frumites and other inhabitants of the worldwide network use the nickname. Pseudonyms are often invented by film and theater actors, musicians, circus performers, in a word, everyone who is associated with show business. Indeed, for this sphere it is very important that the name be sonorous, but not stupid, and literally cut into memory.

However, we will no longer torment you with preludes, and we offer a few simple recommendations, which (we really hope) will help you spend much less time "inventing" a bright and memorable pseudonym.

Step one. Do you need a nickname and why?

Before coming up with a nickname, remember one important thing: a nickname is needed for a specific purpose. Therefore, we advise you to decide how exactly you will use it. Whether it will be your name on a social network, in a chat or on a dating site. Whether you need a literary pseudonym. Or maybe you want to play some kind of online game and your nickname should inspire fear in the enemy. In any case, whatever medium of communication on the Internet you choose, the nickname must correspond to it.

Suppose you are a writer and have just finished another novel, say a detective story. Agree, publishing it under the name "Hellish devil" or "Kitty" would be ridiculous. In addition, the nickname must be unique. This is especially important for forums or social networks. After all, on any forum there can be a lot of the same “Hellish devils”, and even more “Kisul”. Come on, then figure out which one you are.

Second step. Nick with a twist

In addition to uniqueness, your nickname should be, as they say, with a twist. That is, he must:

• arouse curiosity;
• attract attention;
• associate with you.

And here it is very important to know exactly what you need a nickname for, since its zest depends very much on the scope of use.

It is also important what associations your pseudonym will cause among those around you. After all, an association is that zest, thanks to which it "cuts" into memory. Remember Chinese martial arts movies? The heroes had their own names, but there were also nicknames that described their character and manner of fighting in one or two words. A famous character Fenimore Cooper? His real name was Nathaniel Bumpo, but for his accuracy the Indians gave him their "nickname", Hawkeye.

Third step. tricks

What should be the nickname, we found out. Now let's talk about the techniques that are most often used by the "old-timers" of the Internet. But, again, you need to apply this or that method wisely, based on the context.

1. Reception first. Letter. Strange as it sounds, but just one letter can give your nickname some mystery, some mystery. Everyone wants to know what this letter means. However, there is one problem here. There are millions of users on the Internet, and there are about thirty letters, both in English and in the Russian alphabet. In addition, various chats and forums do not allow using only one letter in a nickname. But all these restrictions were invented by people and people figured out how to get around them. The easiest way is to write the same letter several times, while inserting dots, hyphens or underscores.
2. Second reception. Words-shifters. Such words are often used in nicknames. That is, they take a word and write it from right to left. For example, Word-Drow, Dynamo-Omanyd and more. Basically, people “flip” their names, and to make a name or a flip word sound beautiful, letters, particles, prefixes, and so on are added to it. Let's say this: we add the letter S to the word Modles, it turns out Modless. Or another option. We turn the name Danyl into Lynad and with the help of the article der, Russian Danyl becomes German, DerLynad.
3. Third trick. We turn verbs into nouns. This is the easiest way to come up with an original nickname. If you need neither in English, take the verb that expresses your favorite action and add the ending er to it. For example, Read-Reader, Write-Writer. Russian is even easier. You turn the verb into a noun: Write-Writer, Travel-Traveler. You say that there are many such nicknames? A lot, but you can add your name in English to this nickname or vice versa. And as a result - a memorable nickname that will definitely help you find like-minded people.
4. Reception fourth. We play with words and symbols. Such a game with words and symbols is perhaps the most popular on the Internet. It “works” very simply: letters or an owl that sound similar are replaced with numbers, symbols, or words that sound similar. For example, the letter "Ch" can be replaced by 4, "A" - by @, etc. Thus, quite interesting nicknames are obtained. WITH English language can be "played" in exactly the same way. See for yourself: 4Fun, Sk8ter, To№y.
5. Fifth technique. Heroes of books, myths and legends. This technique can be used by creative people who want to bring beauty and poetry to their pseudonym. At the same time and erudition to shine. Moreover, it does not matter at all which mythology of which country or which century is taken as a model. If you want to feel like the ruler of the universe, take the pseudonym Zeusili Poseidon. Or maybe you prefer the Egyptian god Osiris or the ancient Greek Aurora. In a word, choose.
6. Reception sixth. Nick and male instincts. And now it's time for you, "Kisuli", "Lapuli", "Sweets" and other permanent "residents" of dating sites. Such pseudonyms are usually chosen by girls to emphasize their naivety, insecurity and need for a strong male shoulder. As a rule, this works flawlessly for men. After all, it is much more pleasant to communicate with "Kisonka" or "Hare" than with the "Augean Cleaner". In addition (do not tell anyone!) They use such a nickname if they want to confuse one of the representatives of the stronger sex. In a huge family of Internet users, there are also such people. Moreover, they do this not so much out of bad motives, but "for fun and for fun." But still, be careful. After all, the reaction to the next "Kisyunya" may be the opposite and your own nickname will play bad joke with you.
7. Reception seventh. Items, sounds and nickname. Absolutely everything can be used as a nickname, even the names of objects and sounds. For example, Planer, Cutter, Protractor, Flash, Buzz and so on. And again, we remind you that the nickname should be chosen according to the tasks and goals, and not so, if only it sounds.

Passing advice for copywriters. The same method can be used if you are fighting over the name of your clan or group.

Of course, the techniques listed here are not all. After all, human ingenuity, and especially the ingenuity of the multi-million population of the Internet, is limitless. You can come up with an interesting and memorable pseudonym different ways. Some will be more effective, others will not. There is no universal recipe or nickname for all occasions, but there is common advice for everyone: first decide why you need a nickname, and then come up with it.

How did you come up with your nickname and what does it mean?

What users say

In general, I don’t worry about nicknames, it seems to me that the impression is made by the content, not the nickname. And I advise everyone to pay attention to what you write, and not to inventing nicknames.

As mentioned above, I also don’t worry too much about this, what comes to mind first, then I prescribe it as a nickname. In fact, most of the time I prefer to write English letters, sometimes there are nicknames in Russian letters.

That's funny, I've never bothered with such problems. To come up with a nickname in order to impress is the lot of schoolchildren, because. they are not capable of anything else at that age.

ProfInvestor, but I do not agree, the first impression of a person on the Internet is always formed by his nickname and profile design. By inertia, when choosing, I evaluate freelancers by nickname and avatar. Of course, these are not fundamental evaluation criteria, but still allow us to form some opinion about the seriousness of a person.

This is a difficult question, since often one or another nickname under which you would like to register is busy and you have to do one that is not in this system. For example, I don’t really bother and just made my name, how old I am, and the first 3 letters of my last name. Because when I register somewhere I often have to do it quickly because time is money. And so I just made the best option for myself and on the Internet I am everywhere under this nickname.

I personally use different nicknames on different sites. In the incentive, I, for example, Nostra, was Kelevra, Arlan. On other sites, mostly under this nickname, which you now see. And all my nicknames have meaning. Nick, it seems to me, should carry a certain semantic load.

Probably only the TC was steaming, since the topic was created.

The article is of course interesting, but I personally never took a steam bath at the expense of the nickname, I usually call myself what impressed me at the last moment, I recently read a lot of science fiction and now I call myself Cthulhu, I’ll meet something else interesting, next time I’ll call myself differently ...

The article is useful for me, somehow I also didn’t think about nicknames before, now I’ll be more attentive to this issue. In general, when I read someone's nickname, it becomes funny from the imagination of our people. Some nicknames are very interesting and really memorable.

I have the nickname Enot, because I really like raccoons.. And on one forum I am registered as Ifsogirl. I am a big fan of Stephen King's work, ifsogirl - it was the email of the deceased beloved daughter of the main character in one of the books. I liked it, and I decided to use it as a nickname.

Somehow, this topic of thinking through a nickname is also not clear to me. Let it be what you like or the name of your favorite character. Something that evokes positive emotions. Well, it also depends on where you sit with this nickname. Specially squeaking your brains over showiness, etc. is stupid. You will be remembered for your activities and merits, popularity. Content as above.)

Interestingly, have you met any particularly memorable nicknames that caught on? It doesn't matter what - originality, fun, or something else? For example, I don’t pay much attention to nicknames, but sometimes quite interesting ones come across that willy-nilly draw attention to the posts of their owner.

Choose a nickname that you like first of all, and only a few can remember it. Most often, not complex, sonorous nicknames associated with some kind of famous characters, heroes of famous films, games.
