View Full Version : Username Help Needed! *waves goodbye to "Ginkasa"*

Okay, I really really really like my user name. Not just for being my user name; I enjoy it on its own terms. I just hear "Ginkasa" and I think, "Man, that is a cool name."

So much so, in fact, that I can not fathom not naming a character in a story "Ginkasa." The nephew of Garawk Tane, FYI. Thus he'd be Ginkasa Tane. [funny note: this isn't the first time I've used a name in a story that was created for other purpose; Garawk Tane was made for a D&D session].

But, of course, there's a problem. I am called Ginkasa. It wouldn't be entirely correct, I think, to name a character Ginkasa in a story I plan to post here when completed.

So I need a name change. I don't trust myself to think of a name since I'll probably like it so much to use it in a story too. So...

I'm asking for help. I need a name change. Something you guys think would fit me. Something that probably would be unusable in a story (with the exception of Dylflon's Battle Royales ;)).

I will give excessive amounts of +rep to the person who gives me a new name (I will also give rep to whomever happens to be above the name choosers posts so I can +rep the name chooser again).

Fire away!

I'll give you my middle name.

Sethos.



Don't abuse it. :)

But ya, I say name your character something else and keep your name. It's not like your story's going to be huge is it? Well, your choice.

Right... 'Cause I'm from and/or against Texas and all... :hmm:

And the story's going to be big enough for me. I plan on working on it and evolving it until I could actually publish it...or something. Use you guys (and some other forums) as my guinea pigs to figure out what's right and what's wrong and stuff.

Besides, I've had the character down as "Ginkasa" forever now. I can't think of him as anything besides Ginkasa, but I have no problems changing my name.

What was it again? Link1130? >_>

Go try some Elven name generators. It's how I came up with Dynendal, which I use for everything. I use Dyne for short most places though.

Hey Ginkasa, give me some key words that describe you, and some other things such as Link, that you're into.

Oh, and by the way, my elf name is Finrod Tasartir. Typhoid, your name is Steven?

I'll...just use Link1130.


*shrugs and walks away*

Edit:

*peers at "new" name*

FYI for those who haven't been here long enough, Link1130 was my original name dating back to....way long ago. I haven't had it since early to mid '02 I think... O_o

I kind of like Ginkasa alot more, it was more creative, Link1130, just kind of sounds wrong. Maybe not to you lot, because it used to be his name, but ive only known him as Ginkasa, and i actually really liked the name.

I've known Robert as Link1130 for a long time and Ginkasa could never take it's place. Welcome back, real Robert.
