Topic: Name ideas

So, the main purpose behind this thread is to help the new or those wanting a better name, I have been thinking over getting a new username for both youtube and BiM for a while now, and I figure I can't be the only one.
Below is the list. To suggest a new idea or claim one of these names just PM me or post a reply.
I will mark any names that have been claimed or used before. I guess I'll get the ball rolling here and post a few.

Name List
-BrickBeast
-BrickBender Studios
-Brikfilmr
-Studious Studios
-Heinous Spaghetti

How do you change your username?

Easy, just ask an administrator.

Have you seen a big-chinned boy?

Re: Name ideas

YOu have to PM a moderator or admin (I actually don't know the difference so Sméagol is a good choice. He owns everything.)

I thought of Heinous Spaghetti once

Re: Name ideas

Thanks

Re: Name ideas

I pretty sure only administrators have the power to change usernames (ie Smeagol). On the topic of names I'll probably try and get mine changed to match up with my new YouTube account sometime soon.

Re: Name ideas

I'm considering changing my name to HackSlash Studios. Opinions?

Re: Name ideas

People would expect only the one type of film, and it isn't very good if you decide to expand out to other genres.
I suggest something more generic.

Re: Name ideas

how about

Giant Butt Studios

Re: Name ideas

Nothing with studios. "Studios" isn't even accurate since it's really just you, and if I had thought about it a little more when I was starting out in 5th grade, I wouldn't have gone for it. I suggest something distinctive and memorable that doesn't have "productions" "studios" "labs" "films" etc. in it.

"Brick" is also a nice one to avoid simply because half this site uses it in their names.

Re: Name ideas

@thekingofbricks what about slashburn studios? That sounds better than hackslash because its actually a thing.

But yeah, non sequiturs are great. Also if you look up real studio names they are mostly very vague and dreamy, and imply fantasy stuff (dreamworks, lionsgate, Indian paintbrush for starters.) Also if you have a partner you should try something with acronyms because those are #swag

Re: Name ideas

Personally, I like Heinous Spaghetti.

Re: Name ideas

Slashburn? Like burning forest residue mini/confused ? I mean it sounds cool until you think of what it means. I do have friends interested in brickfilming but they aren't partners.

Re: Name ideas

Still in need of a name, My animations will mostly be comedy and action if that helps. I would like to remind everyone that this is also just a name suggestion thread so I will add sugestions.

Re: Name ideas

When I was choosing my band name, I had a list of over 100 names.  I actually want to do a song about that process.  Anyway, to help choose a good name (I settled on Tinnitis), I imagined a DJ announcing a song, saying, "Now here's the lastest hit from [band name]!"  I guess the best way to transfer this is to imagine what the production card at the end of each of your films could look like with that name.  Hope this idea helps!

Re: Name ideas

How about using your full name - or something that sounds like it? Kind of like an author's pen name.

(Or you know, you could just do Butt Buttucions like JK suggested. Very memorable!)
