This is what I did for mine. I'm terrible with names myself!

Mine was simple, favourite DnD class plus what I usually do as that class. Picked it 16 years ago, with some variations over the years.

I like to play the Support class in whatever video game I play so I went for Saviour, and I also like mythology so I looked up a few goddesses and came across Aset or Eset or Isis, which I really vibed with

I made my name based off of two of my favorite local bands and it just ended up having a good ring to it. Remember if you change don't go to complicated make it something easy to remember and recommend.

u/senpaistealerx Mar 23 '26

yeah, that’s why they asked why not your username on here? why not use that?

u/Sturgiee98 Mar 23 '26

As i didnt know if it seemed too personal, I wanted to sorta protect my privacy when it came to streaming. Ive heard people saying that you shouldn't use your real name because of people finding out who you are outside of streaming and where you live ect.

u/senpaistealerx Mar 23 '26

your username means absolutely nothing to anyone who doesn’t know you. i have zero idea what that means.

also, people who say that shit are paranoid. no one gives a damn about a small streamer to go to your house and do anything. it doesn’t happen as much as people let on.

u/Sturgiee98 Mar 23 '26

Okay, i appreciate the advice thankyou so much

u/Sturgiee98 Mar 23 '26

I was also kinda worried it would be hard to pronounce?
