Help me decide my toon name (please!!!)

Caomhnoir de na Fhiaigh Corcra
Hex
Caomhnoir de na Fhiaigh Corcra
Posted On: 07/17/2013 at 06:08 PM

Ok, so I have narrowed it down to 2 choices:

 

Hex Estrella : Estrella means "star" in Spanish, but most people say it wrong (pronounced Es-tray-a), which then leads me to explain, and have a "cool story bro" moment....hnnnnggggg!

OR....

Hexy Thing : Which is easy to say, but does not have the serious rp vibe going on with it.

 

I am 50/50 on both, I figured I would go with what the majority thought, because I am being indecisive and would like to get my final sig done (courtesy of Gibsauce Sigs Inc.)

 

Help Me please!!!!!!!!!

as long as people know how to pronounce your name. choose the first one. I have to admit I didn't know until you just recently pointed it out. so go with the first one

 

I already know the name i'm going to choose. 

 

C'valt Tia  (pronunciation: Ka-val-t  Tee-ah)

Breakdown of name

 C (pronunciation: short Ka) - Tribal Name - Coeurl

 Tia - Non Breeding Male

I like the top one. You just need to accept that most people will mispronounce it.

I was pronouncing your first name wrong all this time in me head, but I'd still vote for Hex Estrella.  Maybe you can name your pet Hexy Thing  :)

I like the first one, Hex Estrella.

Seeing as it is only the surname that could get mispronounced it probably won't come up so often because most people will just call you Hex in Raidcall anyway, except when you need to tell someone your name to add or something. If it was the first name that was likely to be mispronounced it would could be more problematic.

In Rift and GW2 I used the name Raighan, and where I come from that is a common well known girls' name that I didn't realise some wouldn't know how to pronounce, but I found that many people on Raidcall didn't know how to say it, also I had a character called Cian, which is also common, but same thing happened. In FF XIV I will be Shae (still going with my Irish roots) and I think that one is very easy to know how to pronounce.

Okay, my two gil on this one.  ;)

Choice number one:  I bet it gets mispronounced most times because people are not thinking of a language switch after seeing the name Hex.  ;)  I like it.

Choice number 2: This one just fits you better.  Just saying. 

Did I help?  Probably not!  

Would add something witty in Spanish here, but, "Soy muy malo en espanol."  =P  Not even going to bother finding the right ascii character I needed in that either!

Don't mess with Mama Bear, I might hug you too tight. =D

I vote for "Lo hex estrellas".  It just rolls off the tip of the tongue.. :)  I think it means "Star Hex Thing".

lol. love Hex Adecimal.

it depends how much you mind being mispronounced. my main 'malle' (rhymes with fall - name of a French film director) was often pronounced "malley" (rhymes with volley).

i kinda switched to Roxanol because Rox makes a nice short name and everyone can pronounce it. (it's also a medical joke.)

one thing i've done not so smart is switch names of mains between factions and games. some know me as epi, malle, and rox. so often i think some people don't realize it's still me & i'm still in game. silly me.
