so I've been thinking a lot aobut what my name for smash should be. where did you guys all get your inspiration for your names? I've been thinking about the name BIRD because falco is a bird and yeah its kinda cool.

IS BIRD TAKEN?!???!?!?!/ SOMEONE TELL ME!



and also, i may be a n00b for this but i JUST discovered SmashWiki a few minutes ago, HOW LONG HAS THIS BEEN AROUND?!?!?!


thank you.

I'm just pyrotek, but PYRO when 4 letters are needed while playing.

GG would be nice for a 4-letter. Or GG7, if that makes any difference to you.

I got my name of Pyrotek over years of thought. And THERE'S A SMASH WIKI!? *runs off*

haha. yeah i've considered it but i think of this screen name more as a screen name instead of a gamer name. i signed up for this site a long time ago before i even considered competitive smash and that's when i chose that name.

bird isn't just because of it being 4 letters, its just a funny name :) but i'll keep thinking about it

Way back when I was an Inuyasha fan, I decided to make my own chracter nicknamed, Seyasha (hence where the "asha" came from) ever since then it has been my RPG name. Apart from Chaoszero, those are the only names I use. In Smash I shorten the name to, "Sey".

I don't think you can pick a name, you have to let it come to you. Eventually it will hit you. I got mine at my second biweekly smashfest. 56K. I just kind of came up with it. Plus I main Game & Watch (old, laggy) and I'm kind of a computer nerd so it just fits.

In the shadows. Or NE Ohio. Whichever sounds bette
Smashwiki has been around for a couple of months now, and has been edited by a multitude of SWF members every day for these past few months. I myself, edit it every once in a while.

Here's a link to the main page, for everyone who wants to check it out:
www.smashwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page

Anyone who is a member here has the ability to edit it, just don't do anything stupid and make sure you have all of your facts straight before you go crazy. And make sure to ask people before you start some huge project, just go into the discussion on the main page for that stuff.


For my 4-letter name (although I don't use 4 letters) I use kage, in Japanese Katakana. It means shadow.

i used to use DJM cause those are the three initials of my real name, then i went to M4FD, stands for mood4food but looks cooler than M4F, then i tried CLVS cause i have really really big calves for my body, but it didn't work out and i went back to M4FD, cause i'm always in the mood4food, and i use it for basically everythign else

I use Kev, since my name is Kevin.

I discovered SWF through SmashWiki one day when I was researching Marth stuff. It's a good idea, but it didn't really help me that much.

SmashWiki isn't bad to check out, but a lot of the pages don't have enough info for me.
For names, I use names that people will recognize, like Juju, sack, hiv+, or rice.

I'm pretty sure that Bird is already being used by many other Falco players. It's simple and it's not hard to come up with.
But yeah, you should go with GG like everyone else said.

why don't you use GUTR for guitarist, it's original, and i'm pretty sure no one uses it, and doing something for gamerguitarist isn't worth the time, so just do GUTR since it looks cooler than GAMR

you really cant just make one on the spot, you usually get it from a joke you anf your friends have or a saying that you and your friemds always use. my board name and 4 letter name came from the south park character mr. derp. In school I just scream derp and write it on my friends' folders and ****.

and also GUTR seems more like gutter, so if u want guitar, I'd make it GITR. But see, now you might wanna pick GUTR becauseits funny and itll remind you of something way back when you started at smashboards. All comes down to however you wanna express your individuality in the game. And as far as BIRD goes, there is no even semi-known player by that name, so get good and claim it.

Tori, a Falco player, from Washington, chose the name "Tori" because it means "Bird" in Japanese.

Falco Ditto name Battle! :-P

Tori, along with Silent Wolf, Sas, and the rest of the folks in Washington were very kind hosts. :]

My name came when I was playing Captain Falcon, which is rather obvious. My tag is Hiza, which translates to Knee. I use the japanese scripts because they take up less space on the screen, and aren't ever distracting. Unlike when you see "KNEE" flying over your head.

Yea im serious allright, Im like the Sasuke Uchia of the Smash World. Im sure your pretty good and I dont doubt it, but the same can be said about me. But since we kinda are rivals and stuff now, I suppose we should fill each other in on our attempts to spread our names. Things such as "combo videos" or Recorded matches against "well known" or "semi well known " players. This should make things even more intresting and placeing high in big tournaments too of course.
