I Need A Good Stage Name

[DonDadda59]

Ok, so next week I'm joining one of the actors unions and I have the option of registering a professional/stage name. Wouldn't be a bad idea because I'd maintain some anonymity/privacy because I don't have to change my legal name, but I'd have a pen name to use which is nice. So any idea on any catchy names I should use?

Don't care how stupid or random, just throw some cool names out there and maybe I can put together something good from the suggestions...

Whats your ethnicity?

some ideas:

Hispanic: Rico Salvatore

Italiano: Joey "Two Fist" Ventura

American: Joe Smith

Asian (east): Little Eddie Tang

Asian (middle): Guptar Taliwanashnack

Russian: Igor Sputnik

European (east); Sven Luniz

European (west): Sergio DeSiville

African: Umpow Clicbom

Native American: Squanto Raging Mouse

Jewish: Mordicah Jefferson Carter

Australian: Steve Irwin II

I use a wide variety of aliases. Juan Claudio Van Damn. Johnny Ringo, Jay Guevara, Cuervo Jones, J.C. Dark (after Cooger and Dark from Something Wicked This Way Comes), and a bunch more I can't think of at the moment. But I almost always include some variance of my real name (hence all the J's) in em.

Or you could just be "Ray Finkle"

Or "William Shatter"

Some of my aliases...

Earl Dark (taken from Earl Clark, but changing the CL to a D, just makes it a badass name)
Jeremy Winston (taken from the Pearl Jam song and Deadpool's middle name)
Albert James (taken from my grandad)
Jimmy Bravo (taken from Johnny Bravo)

Nothing too spectacular, but I like them.

going SAG or AFTRA?

I'm on set starting Monday, so I'm a must-join for AFTRA.

Question for you- can I register a pro name later, like not at the time of joining the union?

[Lamar Doom]

may i ask what AFTRA costs? you doing BG or you got a part? I don't remember about the stage name thing, pretty sure it's when you buy into the union. Might be different for AFTRA. I'm 100% sure you can change it later.

$1,300 for membership and $63.90 for dues, and I got a speaking part after starting off as featured BG on a pilot.
