Seriously, what's up with the amount of these? I can barely tell one person from the other. And people still want them.
Be more original, people. Discuss... do you think they're cliched? | |

I like them, tbh. It looks clean and more 'professional'.

Well, I like my choice. 'Shanoa' strikes me as a female name, and I think it's a good choice.
One worded names are easy to remember, and easy to pronounce. So I can see why people want them. -------------------  "The first blow is the most important. It often negates the need for a second." -Agrus Kos | |

My name's two words joined together.
Just a little note here, I'm not talking about names like Tom's, where it's their RL name. I'm talking about ones where they plucked some random 'cool' words, like these: quote | |

Had it occurred to you that people might choose those names because they actually hold a personal meaning for them?
I'll use myself as an example. I use the name Vector because it directly relates to one of my greatest passions which is Graphic Art. -------------------  | |

It's like I stated before. It's simple and creative.

I've always felt that one-word names were superior, but in recent times I decided that if I somehow got a free name change I'd make it a two word one. Although the name I thought of isn't anything too special either, it's just an adjective then a noun. =\

I don't know really. Twould be a pretty cool if there was a member called 'Oven' but I don't want to see everybody with similar names. I think that one worded names stand out more. My username doesn't actually stand out. -------------------  Credit to Animalover | |

One word just looks cooler. Plus it is often harder to come by. Anyone can combine two words and generally get a decent name, but in a lot of places especially older boards like Neo it can be darn near impossible to get single words. If I go on any kind of Star Trek board or anything remotely related to it I almost never get this name. So I grab it whenever I can.

Yes, Blode.
 Oh, wait, not anymore.Personally, I prefer one word names. I just think they look cleaner and whatnot. And not to mention that the name Amethyst does mean a lot to me, just as Q said Vector means something to him. -------------------  | |
