Go with DJ Ballbag... :6:

Jokes!

Seriously though, I called myself DJ N/A (well, just N/A) coz I thought I couldn't DJ... turns out I was wrong - but the point is, take something that means something to you, or just something about you.

You got a nickname you could use..?

Inspiration...

These might jog something...

Scour your music collection and check out the track names - they might provide inspiration.

Think of any nicknames you or mates have had - they sometimes work quite well if they're not offensive.

Grab a thesaurus, and go wild.

Or worst case, you could do a break-core style spoof name. I've seen "Bit Meddler" "Captain Grotwash" "PhetaMean" "Tamo Banter" "Riff Glitchard" and the best one... "BassCunter VS Ratboy Slim" haha

Bit Meddler was doing really amazing stuff back in the day. His Christina Aguilera remix and the "Shitmix 2000" are *still* dope
