Avoid using your real name or details you don't want public.
What makes a good name
Short, easy to spell and say, on-brand for your niche, and not tied to your real identity. Check it's free on OnlyFans, X, Reddit and a link page.
Consistency across platforms helps fans find you.
What to avoid
Real name fragments, your location, hard-to-spell words, or names that violate trademarks. Don't impersonate anyone.
Test it out loud — if it's hard to share, change it.
