We've had Porn names and Star Wars names- this is my variant.
The idea hit me square in the tackle when I first saw Logical Realist's handle appearing on this site. Now this might seem like a good idea, telling people what you're like through your username, but it's probably open to unconscious abuse through people naming themselves for how they'd like to be perceived, rather than the grim reality. I bet that a few "Genius Orator"'s would in fact turn out to be "Pompous Gasbag"'s instead.
Still, it's worth a shot. Try naming yourself after your posting style with brutal honesty. Stick to a limit of one or two words if possible- Ming is exempted as I can't think of a adequate contraction of "I sold my soul to the forces of darkness". If LR wishes to participate he's expected to pick an adequate label. This will probably work to his advantage as my knee-jerk reaction to the couplet "Logical Realist" is to read it as "Boring old sod".
I'll kick off by renaming myself "Irritable ranter".
