    Many people have trouble coming up with names for their characters, or if they do find a good one it is most likely taken. There is a simple solution to this. The solution is to add a lowercase i at the beginning. It's small and easy to ignore. Example: I wanted the name Caelum, but it was taken already, so I instead used iCaelum. For people wanting names having to do with their power, such as if you have ice powers and you want the name frost, but frost and iFrost are already taken, why not go for a different laguage? I find that latin or japanese names sound the coolest, and may have multiple words meaning the same thing. For example frost would be Gelu, Gelum, Pruina, or Gelus.

    For iconic dc characters you can also add JL, JLA, or JSA to the end.

    Or more easy you can just replace some letters for look alike letters, like to name TheBatman, oyu can also use TheBalman, see the l is not too much different that the t and it still works.
    By the way, TheBalman is taken by me.

    Why not go with the highlighted option first, rather than prefixing the name with an "i"....making it seem like your character is a rabid Apple fan boy?

    As for your forum name change, PM Mepps and ask him.

    No offense, but when I saw "Name Guide" by iAquamanJLA I had to chuckle a bit.

    You can also use III at the beggining and end of your name to add a handsome and distinguished look to it!

    I just think really really really really hard and come up with an original name that fits without using weird characters that can confuse or irritate others. But I like the different language idea, that could work in a bind.

    Because sometimes the latin names are taken, like Caelum was, and i had to go with iCaelum.
