Need Help Deciding on a 'Gamer Tag'

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 3:10 pm

This may seem like a really stupid topic for a tread, but try to bare with me (or just ignore me! :wink_smile: )

I've always had trouble deciding on names (when it came to characters, blogs, email adresses, ect).
I will be getting a Console this summer, and wanted some opinions on some of my ideas so far, or maybe even some new ideas to help me come up with more!
You could also tell me how you came up with your own gamer/internet tags, if you want.

Actually, I really wouldn't mind a Elder Scrolls related name (since its my favorite series) as long as is was original, but there are a lot of possibilities with that....
I'm also sort of an anime nerd (hence the Otaku Jim tag) I'm also a bookworm.....hmm, Bookworm Jim => Earthworm Jim? heheheh.

Hmm, some TES nicknames that come to mind.....Daedric Jim, Ordinator Jim, Dwemer Jim (yeah, I sort of want Jim in it since it's my RL nickname, and I like the sound)

Steve

Or

Stan

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if those weren't taken... Everyone seems to go for descriptive names that the normal ones are all probably overlooked

My second vote goes for I<3DerpyHooves

Edit: oh, if you are a bookworm, it's gotta be I<3TwilightSparkle

Will you be playing multiplayer with people you don't know and a mic?
This is really the only question that needs to be addressed.

Then, if you are even worried about it, the only thing to look out for is trying to make a name someone can recognize and call out, that you will recognize, in a split second.

ThIs DoEs NoT hElP -[I would just call you 'annoying name']
nor does ghraagpodpapd -[this would be gargle pod]

Otherwise they all look fine.
I'd put a space for Gaijin GuyJim or Gaijin Guy Jim

I agree if I cant call out their name instantly I usually just call them something insulting like "[censored] face with the sniper". I would also recommend trying to keep all of your gamertager/forum stuff similar. An example is that all of my names have crazy monkey in it. Its a little pet peeve when people just have random names every time the make a profile somewhere.

Yeah, thats another thing to consider. Thats sort of why I prefer things that I can add 'Jim" to either at the beginning (Jymjak) or the end.

@ electricRubber, I like that one as well.
