I've decided I need a new handle. :D It has to have several rules: 1. Be overall unique. I don't want to be dede12345, dedeno1, dedeno2, dedeno555 anymore. 2. Be professional sounding. . No more slutty_eddie 3. Be rememberable, pronounceable & spell-able., no Mythorpic Rhynopica or 23yearold3yrold. 4. No ethnical references. I already am a fat otaku, I don't need a handle reminding me who I am. 5. The perfect handle will have 2 ~ 3 syllables, but more is acceptable.

Your new name should be "Mistar Keekles".

If you use this name, you have to pay me royalties though.

How about binominis{or binomine} (latin for "having two names")?
Don't forget that in latin (iirc at least), 'i' makes a "long E"(ee) sound, and 'e' makes an "long A"(ay) sound

Yeah, grab the latin of your name, or someone else's name, or a phrase or something. Always sounds cool. Well, not always, but a lot of the time...

Uh, who sets up a list of rules for creating a screen name? If you want professional sounding, how about your name. Might just be me, but any other type of name just wouldn't seem very professional to me. That might just be me, though. I mean, who knows, PaNcaKeXors might sound very professional to others.

You remembered it, and you spelt it right other than the deliberate substitution of the word "year" for "yr" (proving you know how it's pronounced). Once again, my nickname is proven to be perfect. [cool]

Mythopic Rhyno, Saberman, NeHe and Nosaj are all professional sounding and mostly unique. I also like the anonymous feeling a handle gives me.
