In the Catholic Church, when one gets confirmed, one usually picks a "confirmation name," after a saint. This troper picked two--and it occured to me later that they make a perfectly reasonable-sounding full name. I plan to use it should I ever need an alias.

You get to pick your own? I was not aware of this. Then again if I didn't have "Julian" in my name somewhere I'd probably be cast out of the family so I guess it's for the best.

To make a long story short, I have several names to use as aliases (but never have any good chances to put them to use).

This troper has decided that if she ever writes a book or performs music, she will go by her middle name.

This troper makes it a point for everyone he meets on the net to refer to him by his middle name as well as his mother's middle name. He's pretty much used to everyone in {{Real Life}} calling him by his given name though.

I already have a pen name planned out if I ever start writing for real. What is it? W. Nai. What's the "W" for, you may ask. That's... A Secret.

This Troper is an example.

My handle -- which I use more or less everywhere on the Internet, not just TVTropes -- happens to incorporate my Hebrewis, [[TrueName ceremonial]] name. My mother goes the opposite way, using her middle name and an Anglicized near-homophone of her mother's maiden name.

For a PenName (or secondary pen name, more likely) I can and probably would do with my last name something like what Stanley M. Lieber did with his first.

Due to a series of odd mishaps in this troper's family, her last name could be one of two. Her plans for pseudonyms are her middle name plus the last name she doesn't use. Brilliant!

Used for a prank, This troper used the first part of his middle name. And changed the spelling. And used an alternate reading of his (Chinese) surname.
