Anyone have any tips for making up a pseudonym that actually sounds like a real name?

Think of a first name.

Think of a last name.

Done.
You fucking autist.


Thanks for the pic of Stewart, though. She's fine.

The names that came to mind as I read your post were "John" and "Smith." One of those is already my name and together they are a shit pseudonym. Thanks for nothing!

No, you're a moron.

Your first name is your first pet's name.

Your last name is the name of the street you grew up on.

Done.

You fucking autist.

More pics of Stewart, please.

Ignore him. He's what you call a north american troll. It's a dangerous stupid animal. Watch out for it's obnoxygen spray.

Just play with words. Make a list of first names you like for whatever aesthetic reasons. Do the same with last names.

Read a phone book.

I use my mothers surname and the name she was going to give to my sister if she was a boy, along with my first cats name for my middle name.
But if you want it to be untraceable just make up a name with no meaning to you

What do you guys think of using an ethnic-sounding name to make it more likely you get published?

Just go to a grave yard and pick the name you like. It's not like people can take legal action from the grave.

...human consciousness...

...that "I am I "...

Before that defining moment human beings would have existed in a timeless state, much like a new born child. Similarly, an infant has no sense of self and hence no ego...

The construction of the self is a gradual
process both historically and psychologically..

...capsaicin...

...the stimulus that is behind the creation of a sensation of 'hot'...

It's hard to say whether 'hot' is actually a thing that exists, or whether it's some cosmic relation...

...whether the neural connections and microbes that inform our 'heat receptors' are actually true -- or an illusion...

you're never going to need a pseudonym

Pick one out of the phonebook.

why do people adopt pseudonyms?

/lit/, ladies and gentlemen

Because they either have a shitty or difficult name or to avoid confusion with someone else

Seems legit.

If this helps as a method, I remember hearing that J.K.Rowling walked around graveyards looking at the headstones to find names for characters.
Perhaps do the same: pick two names you like and there you go.

Harry Roosevelt? Actually sounds interesting. Might use it for a character in my novel lol

Type pen name into google translate and select different languages until you get one that sounds good
>>
>>7392821
Funnily enough I'm thinking of doing the reverse for the exact same reason.
