Iv gone for far too long with this production name and need to change it
currently going under the name 'Jellytot Massacre' aka JTM because i havnt changed it since i was 15 and used to make non serious music but then i guess iv got better since then and dont need to rely on humourous remixes to get people to listen to my shit
i dont have that much of a following so im not too fussed but i have no creative juices when it comes to naming..well just about anything...
for example my first pet was a fish and the best name i could think of was fish....
...
anyway...

im fully aware a name should be personal but as we'v already discussed i just cant think of anything which is origional or good in any way shape or form so im calling upon you to assign me one

2 Rules:
1, iv had one shit name already dont make me another
2, listen to rule one

Go

Pick an interest you have outside of music. Choose an obscure technical term from within that interest.

Add a noun at the end/adjective at the start if you want to jazz it up.

Jellex, pretty original.
Seriously coming up with names/pseudo/nicks is hard, but what I usually focus on while making up one is
1. It has to make some sort of sense (related to what you do, or love in a way, but it doesn't have to)
2. It has to sound good (2 words is already too much IMO)

Add "UK" to any taken name and it's yours. Old DnB rule applies to dubstep. So "Subculture UK" ;-) I'd do this if I needed to even though I'm from Baltimore. Lol

idd try messing arround with your real name , let's say your name is clark kent -> clake - ckent- lark-... , I know these are bad examples but you get the idea!
good luck anyway! , Athys once said in an interview that choosing a name was the hardest thing about making music ! :)

Taking 3 first letters of your name and last name is kinda lame :/
although you can experiment in a different way.
If you're not a nameshy person or w/e, you can keep it simple - Matthew Collins (follow David Guetta or Porter Robinson :D)
you actually have a nice name to show.. I mean it's not like Stephen Dong or sth
