I’ve been using “ ” forever. I love it, its a great pseudonym. Unfortunately, I haven’t used it very well. It is abundantly clear to anyone who does even a cursory search who I am. I used Som Juan for a while, but that was short lived. Either way, both are pretty well connected to me.
I’d like to create a pseudonym that could actually pass as a person’s name. One I can use offline as well as online. Maybe I could just dramatically scale back my use of and keep on using that. I don’t know how well that would fare offline, but it would be fun to try.
For some reason, what comes to my mind is using some sort of short, monolithic word that already exists in the English language, but doesn’t clearly have to do with you. I dunno, like “Mane” or “Show”. But not those, those are dumb. Maybe try spelling a word wrong, like “Bote” and have people wonder how it’s pronounced. But don’t spell it wrong in a dumb way, like “Dawg” or “Vympyre”. I dunno, that’s just what comes to mind. And people could question if it’s your last name.
