K, so, I have decided, I cannot face being called "Gohan" in real life, IE at psuma,
So I really want to change my nick before then. I have done this sort of thing tons of times before, but I always seem to never get serious answers.
So, PSU, I beseech, please help me with a new nickname.
The only one that I use currently besides "Gohan" currently, would be Vaberus. This used to be an old EQ name. Bite me. I use it for all my RPGS.
I was thinking that I would use the name, and maybe, for like a sig or something, have a star wars theme. Why? Darth Vaber. Yes, I know its Vader.
Sigh. I dunno. Thats seems kinda corny too. I just really dont know if I can face being known as Gohan to people in front of me. As of now, I even regret saying my name on teamspeak. "whos that?" "oh, its just (quietly) gohan"
I am ashamed of my DBZ-ness, and wish to convert.

Stop trying to copy off already made personas. Darth Vaber sounds almost as stupid as Gohan.
Do some thinking of your own and find something that you feel is creative, memorable, and something you can look back on in 10 years and not shudder at what a dumb ass you were for picking that name.

Just said it would be a theme. The name would still be Vaberus. Which I have no clue how I came up with that.

he does have a point. You really should think about it and come up with your own name. You'll like the name a lot more in the long run. Just make sure you dont take the name from a game/movie/book and change a few letters. The it's just corny.

Easy
Find something you like. And find one odd thing within it and use that as a nick.
Like 1024 that's from the Video for The Warning by incubus... I think, it's when everyone disapears.. kewl, subtle, and neater if you know where it comes from.
SO find a movie, genre, comic, book, Music or other source and find a name.
For example I love Westerns, always have... so when it came time to rename myself I went western and religious all at the smae time!

pick a letter, preferably an odd letter not used very much then pick a vowel and then just keep picking letters until you have something your happy with, stopping at under 7 letters is most of the time a good idea. later you can think of something the name connects to if you want
example

:rofl: Yeah. Thats what I was afraid of. I pitched this to several of clans/communitys that I have been it, and I always get the "Ima still call you Gohan" answer. Which just makes me say screw it. Till the next time. Then I make this thread. And then someone says that. Then it happens again!
Oh, I went through VR, its like they slopped the EQ namegen in there. In which case, Vaberus would be a good name. Lol.
Sigh. Time to sit down and think for like hours it looks like to me.
I at the absolute LEAST need to tweak this name. For instance, Eine's nick is straight from Cowboy bebop, but, Its not an obvious name, and its not a main character, the only way you can tell would be through like 1 line of script throughout the whole series.
I was actually in vr a while back, and there was a Mag... was kinda weird.
rakljsd.
Keyboard mashing is pwn.
My common known name outside of here is Wolfpak, and I'm sure most of you know what that is, and people say my name is from Futurama...gah...I just came up with this word out of nowhere one day, and set it as my name. But yeah, do what Pilgrim said.

Wear your name with pride.

EineBeBoP
2004-06-17, 02:39 PM
Well my 2cents (tho it seems Im a bit late) Is that you either take a subject you really like (I chose Cowboy bebop for mine obviously), then find something recognizeable, but not overwhelmingly known (Ein). Then I decided to customize it a bit and add an "e" to the end. (total lie, didnt know how to spell "Ein"'s name.) Added the BeBoP for some unknown reason.
So... if you like .... Star Wars. find the name of some ship (obviously not the xwing or something) modify it a bit and use it :D
Well, my other suggestion was already mentioned. Flip a words spelling. I usted to be named "Wehttam" because its the way "Matthew" is spelled backwards. I've also used my friend's Alvaro and Rodrigo 's names to produce oravla and Ogirdor. So use ur first or last name to come up with something. Kinda hard with short names (I.e. Tim = Mit randy = ydnar kirill = llirik etc.) I also used Corrosion's name to name one of my CoH characters. Kirill = llirik = Yirik.
Well good luck.
Edit: I like your name Khronos
See, I just changed my name, it's cool...I think...

I will still be refered to as Gohan, but, I need a *tiny* bit of uniqueness.

Nah Dhark, as everyone stated, im still going to be known as "Gohan" no matter what I changed my name to.
And besides, I think its cool to be known as the only guy named after a DBZ character that isnt a total asswipe ^_^
The only cool DBZ character I know of is Trunks, since he's cool as hell with his sword, and he's not all emo when he gets mad, he always keeps his cool. But having a name like "Trunks" sounds kinda odd.
Indecisive
2004-06-17, 02:56 PM
The only guy named *after* not *the* character itself.
Besides, the entire reason I picked Gohan in the first place was because of his connection with his father, and after losing him, he was able to rip people new ass holes.
I used to be very close to my dad.
My father is not dead, but when I was something like 8, my father cheated on my mother, and later, after one of his students (he is a college proffeser of anatomy) fed some bullshit about my dad was stealing his projects (which were absolute shit, and my father failed him for it, thats the reason he did this in the first place) he was fired, and now lives in the land of West Virgina working for their university.
So, I have not physically lost my father, but, he might as well be gone. I get to see him 2 weeks a year, like many other kids victum of divorces.
So, thats why I chose Gohan over any other DBZ character. His direct link with his father, and when we both lost our fathers in different ways, I seem to have matured at lot more in different ways, "powering up" if you want to use the lame term.
So, that would be my story, and if tek reads it ill probubly get some bullshit about crying for attention.
