Need a good pseudonym for my music

So I made this username back when I was like 13, and I thought it was cool. For simplicity's sake I just used the same handle for just about every login/online service I ever used. I'm 20 now, and this tag fits me like a pair of toddler's shorts. Sneaksta appropriately said:

Quite agreeable. I knew a while ago that it was going to have to change, especially before I put up a myspace with some tracks.

How do you guys come up with your artist name? I would use my first and last name but Westenberger is rediculous as hell also. I know this is sort of like that thread asking how you name your tracks but I am stumped. I dont want to do something that sounds lame because its trying to sound too cool, but I can't really get anywhere.

lol at quote. i nearly forgot. My "pseudonym" is my first and middle name pushed together. "MichelNicholas" is kinda gay too tho.

numbers are out

phrases are in

pop culture references are out

sensory adjectives are in

the prefix 'DJ' is in, but nobody really understands why

misspellings are out

the letter X is always in

I can't decide if that is sheer madness or solid advice.

Edit: upon further investigation I have decided the latter to be correct

The Haunting Soul-Funk Orchestra.

Western Burger.

A Bag Of Dicks.

^ those are all quality names

go with:

"What VSTs Will Make This Sound More Like Autechre?"

Pie Magic

my old idm pseudonym modex came from the Mode X video mode

rooftop access (my post-rock band) came from wandering around on level 6 in the westfield shopping centre in bondi junction, nsw, looking down on the rooftops of other stores and thinking to myself 'i wish i had rooftop access'.

as for pselodux, i can't remember how i made that up. i think i might have come up with it trying to invent a name that sounded like a vacuum cleaner brand.

oh and archie martin vox (my metal/noise project) came from a now non-existant electrical/whitegoods department store chain.

i think your handle is cool. its kind of fantasy and fantasy is in. you'll think its funny. in a few years anyway.

if you need a replacement, just think

of the first thing that comes to mind and

allow that thought to terminate in language.

your music and humor, if true, will MAKE any name.

otherwise i suggest Mr. Skribble Kibble
