    Ya gotta love the haters! way to go with the positive advice eh :rolleyes:

    Anyway,Fair play t'ya Claire, welcome to the world of beatmatching , try not to over elaborate with chosing a name for yourself, keep it simple,it doesnt need to be about the fact your a woman and you play electro or whatever.

    Prehaps something along the lines of DJ Maiden or just plainly DJ Claire.

    Whatever you choose,enjoy yourself and keep on with it.

    It doesnt need a DJ prefix either, think of old nicknames, or create an alter-ego,
    take a popular character and twist their name, Little Miss Mix, Mrs Jack-A-Ton, Sista Shox or you could parody social expectations ie HOUSEwife, Mary-Gold, Heard-Not-Seen, It-Was-A-Mans-World or you could ignore gender and just come up with a name like Electric Supply. Either way, enjoy what you do.

    I like the e-Clair suggestion :)

    Puns are frequent in dj names as well, and using miss for girls as well, such as miss-hill...

    But in fairness, a DJ name is not a big deal, and once uget started someone will come up with one for you !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 733 ✭✭✭synesthesia


    Or like elisa do brazil, you can take go for a funny Clairette de die ( sparkly white wine from France )

    Ah just joking!

    Anyhow, to pick a name I'd probably suggest first try gigging a bit and find your own stage persona, your unique selling point if you will, then pick a name that reflects on what you bring personally to your sets and live slots. Just use a generic name for now, or even just do a few house parties where a name isn't necessary. A lot of people may say that a name isn't important but it actually is. For promotion reasons and such it often creates the first impression so a good DJ name can really help get yourself some more coverage and become memorable to a wider audience. Of course the music is important as it's the bonus but a DJ name is the icing on the cake. And if the icing looks **** then you'll often never give yourself a chance to get to that sweet sweet sponge.

    Although sometimes you see a cake and be all that "That icing is sweet man" and then boom: The cake is dry as ****. Just really awful, birthday party ruining potential dryness.

    I'm off to eat some cake.

    I'd concentrate on the learning first, once you can actually DJ it won't matter what people call you as long as they call you! And theres nothing wrong with using your actual name, also its a tradition if you learn from someone in a kind of "apprentice" fashion that they have a nickname for you that'll tend to stick.
    Failing this what about your username DJ Green Bee, or Queen Bee:) Anyway practice now -silly DJ name later!!
