Toribash
Original Post
Names.
Lately, I've been thinking... what makes a good Toribash username? Is it the simplicity? The originality? Or the meaning? Post about how you feel on this subject. And Post some good unused usernames you can think of. Any at all.

I've also been told "All famous toribashians have badass names?" Do any of you think this is true?

What do you mean?
Originality, humor and/or silliness is what makes names good in my eyes. No offense to the people who have usernames like the following, but i personally dislike names with excessive use of X's, as well as the word "dragon". I mean, seriously, X's and dragons in your username doesn't make you cool. Your username doesn't make you cool either, for that matter. You are the only one who can make yourself cool.
But anyways, if a username makes me laugh, then i certainly think it's a good name. Also, if someone nails that cool-name-bro factor without being generic, then i think it's good as well.

I actually think frandude is a bit lame.

You know, I don't think its just because of Rutz people call you Tampon. You're kind of ... screwing yourself over when you use an avatar like that.
Anywho, I like name that are short, begin with capitals letters and contain no numbers and preferably no x's and z's.
For example, 'Kai', 'Ele', 'Nirs', 'Blam' and 'Evil'.
Simple and easy to remember.

Every name has its own beauty, that is only judged by the one who actually gave the name.

Also my favorite name, except mine would be SkulFuk xD

Yes, there must be some subtle beauty that comes with that name (Skulfuc).
On a more serious note, I also like name that are able to be pronounced with minimal difficulty. For when I fight someone, I repeatadly hit my chest while bellowing out their names at the top of my voice. Or something to that effect.
But if your name is something like 'Daeiaoulou' or something Hawaiian like that, then I cannot.
