I'm aiming to release an official C64 Remix sometime no later than August of this year. With that in mind. I've been thinking of changing my name.
I originaly began as "Software Demon" on C64 Circa 1983-1985 and that was my SYSOP name as well, after purchasing my Amiga 1000 it soon turned into "Digi Master" again I used that as my Sysop name as well. Than I ran into an awesome Demo on my C64 by X-Ample Architectures and I though cool logo and like the word play on the X. Being an Analog Synth Freak, I borrowed the "X-" Theme idea and came up with Analog-X, this is ofcourse pre-internet. But there appears to be a very popular programmer by the same name and I always get asked if thats me, which is not.
SO!!! what do you guys think? Should I change my Name? and If so would you help me create a new one?
I dont want to start releasing C64 remixes and have to change my name midway.

Don't change. It makes things even more complicated.
"Are you the guy formely known as Analog-X who programs all this nice music software?"
(He doesn't have a dash in his name btw)

I'm with Mr.Knight - don't change. I changed my name to 'iRiDiUm' for the BIT 3 CD (I was a bit embarrassed about my Wizball 98/2000 mix, y'see AND was cheesed about being labelled a 'dance re-mixer')!
Anyway, it didn't bloody work and people still called me Tonka (and hated the name 'iRiDiUm')!
What's wrong with Analog-X anyway (apart from that it contains the word 'anal'?...
iRiDiUm

LOL! I've been pretty lucky so far - nobody has picked up on the fact that 'Tonka' rhymes with 'Plonker', yet...
DOH! Me and my big mouth...

Sorry, I've been one of those guys asking if you are the "other" AnalogX. But I think you should stick to it, nothing wrong with it.
And for a new name... surely there is somebody already using that new one whatever you come up with, so it's pointless to change the old one.
I took an old nickname, converted it using a primitve English > Huttese tool and came up with the generic word Vosla. I was happy until I discovered that there was a kind of typewriter with the same name, heavy loading sheaves with the same name and vosla all over slavic languages. And a jewish synagogue named the
Valley
Outreach
Synagogue
Los
Angeles

There was even a DJ Vosla. Aaargh!
Could have been worse. Just think of Viagra slightly misspelled...
