    Just do what I did, and be totally unoriginal and use a name generator.

    In fact, use the ->one<- I did. I mean, it gives you the coolest ones in the world. Genius Lynx and Jockstrap Brine-Shrimp! If you can guess who's codename the latter one is, make sure to call them that. XD

    Oh, and as long as people can tell who you are and not confuse you with eight thousand others, you're doing fine.

    Something that has to do with something, or is an idea, Im also fond of older names, like that of the gods in the greak religion.

    - No underscores.

    - No numbers unless it helps to accentuate the individuality of the name rather than make it the next in a line. (A good example of this is the band Finger Eleven; it's a good use of numbers in a name. A bad use would be Squall283843284234238487324234287234.)

    - It's generally a bad idea to use a name of a well-known character or theme. Some names of well known characters like Kain or Snake are f'in cool, so they're okay.

    - I don't like when people use their real names. It's hard to put into words, but "Phil" or "Tom" is just a lame excuse for a screen name. At least use your full name so you'll be more easily identified from all the other folks who do the same.

    - Use caps. Names are formal.

    OOC:I'm gonna use the MGS name generator to give myself a new name.
