Basically, Axxxr has asked me to come up with a suitable name for him because he needs to change his for a couple of reasons but i seriously have no idea of a suitable name so i thought it would be great if the great Esato members chose the new nickname of our very own news resident @axxxr, hope you dont mind
, if you do, this is still carrying on otherwise because i need help!
For example,
a lot of members here find it difficult to pronounce his name for obvious reasons...its simply unpronouncable.
He's been meaning to do this for a very long time now but now since the new years coming and everything he thought now would be a good time.
Many people call him A-X-X-X-R. His name is simply a meaning for something and is therefore unpronouncable because its basically just a set of letters or something.
He asked me for my opinion and i agree and it has been decided that he will change his name but i am helping him choose a new name but frankly i have no idea on what a good name would be
so i am calling on you, the Esato members, to help me choose a new name for Axxxr.
The process for choosing this name will be best if you gave me suggestions and i will talk the best suggestions over with Axxxr and break all suggestions down to about 3 and then we may have a vote to decide the name.
So start posting suggestions

Didn't AXXXR lose a bet with Jojo and promise to take a new name?
EDIT: Sorry; just looked it up and got that backwards. It was JN who bet his username on the election, not Axxxr.
(I've always pronounced it AX-ur, btw. In my head at least...

I've always made up my own letters in place of the Xes, azitar... I kind of add a letter also. But, nothing beats how axxxr looks typed out.
Posted by goldenface
If it hasn't been used already, how about PAPERBOY. .

Here's a definition from dictionary.reference.com:
sooth·say·er
n.
One who claims to be able to foretell events or predict the future; a seer.
Word History: The truth is not always soothing, but our verb soothe is related to soothsayer, the word for one who tells the truth, especially beforehand. The archaic adjective and noun sooth, “true, truth,” comes from the Old English adjective and noun sth with the same meanings. The Old English form derives from Germanic *santh-az, “true,” which comes from Indo-European *sont-, one of the participles from the Indo-European root -es-, “to be”: the truth is that which is. Old English also formed a verb from sth, namely sthian, “to confirm to be true.” This is the ancestor of soothe; its meaning changed from “to assent to be true, say ‘yes’ to” to “humor by assenting, placate.” Doing the latter on occasion requires something less than the truth.
It's appropriate isn't it?

Posted by FutureDesign
Or axxxr
Posted by blackspot
another suggestion: "Anchor" - short for anchorman.
That way you get to retain the A and R from your real name.
Posted by vineet_d
ARxx or xARx or maybe xAxR
Edit - ARxR

Hmmm any chance maybe axxxr *Future*
Posted by Residentevil
How about Anchor. This way you keep the A and R and on top of it it has something to do with news.
Posted by blackspot
@Residentevil, Please review page 3, you'll find that I already suggested that.
Posted by bmsantillan
