7 Practical Ideas for a Creative Nickname in CS:GO
What if the brain stubbornly refuses to come up with a nickname with which it will not be embarrassing to press “Search” in matchmaking, but you are annoyed with the previous one? And in addition, you kinda want it to have some meaning that reflects your personality
If you have already tried all the methods, then the following 10 ideas can help you find acceptable options.
Let's start simple
Why not encrypt your hometown and name? From the first, take the first three letters or the first syllable, and from the second, the last three letters.
Example: Arseniy Trynozhenko was born in Lviv. Arseniy, Lviv turns into Lviniy.
English initials
An initial-based nickname will be simple and easy to remember. Most likely, JT from Complexity or JW from Eyeballers came up with a nickname for himself in this way. You can add a dash at the end. In case ZywOo would have used this method then he would be known as “MH-.”
Nickname among friends
Nickname from real life. It is preferable that it is not one of the informal forms of the real name. You can play around with it, translate it into English and/or replace one of the letters with a suitable number.
A person with the nickname “Dumpling” turns into dumpl1ng or w0nt0n in one fell swoop. Not only friends but also potential Chinese teammates in this particular case are guaranteed to appreciate it.
Brute force
If there are no ideas at all, then it's time to open English or any other dictionary in a foreign language. Any word that sounds special and will not look offensive to the native speaker can become a nickname. The absurdity of a word can add to its memorability.
Take it from art
In case you are still left with no ideas for a nickname at all, then remember what hobbies you have outside of CS:GO, your favorite books, movies, and series. Isn’t it a storehouse of ideas? A Peaky Blinders lover might thus be called sheLby. Numbers, capital letters, and dashes, as usual, are up to you.
Borrowing from strangers
If you don’t want to be 100% unique, then you can pay attention to the nicknames of teammates or opponents in the pub, if you like one. No one bothers to change it to your own way. The main thing is not to pull off such a trick with well-known cyber sportsmen, so as not to look like an obvious imitator without imagination.
Full random
Just take the closest book to you on the left side, open it to page 322 and go down to line 7. We take the sentence on which the finger appears as a starting point. Having tested my own method, I came across a sentence about contour farming. Under the word "contour" you can pick up different metaphors and retroactively come up with a meaning for it. We get something like coNtour.
Whatever method you picked, we wish you to come up with a nickname that you will use with pride and it will be associated by other players not with game ruin and toxicity, but with high skill and exceptional gun power.
