The Art of the Alias
#1
I was pondering what sort of alias to give to my latest character when I caught myself wondering how other players tend to come up with their aliases. My typical go-to is to make an alliterative alias, describing the character with a focus on their personality traits rather than a physical description. Though I do have some exceptions. I've noticed alliteration in general is somewhat popular. I've also noticed that aliases with more or fewer than two words are extremely rare.

So what do you do? Do you focus on a physical description, description of the character's personality, or thematic description? Do you like to employ linguistic tricks like alliteration or rhyme? Do you usually think on it for a while, or just wing it? Do you default to the same style of alias, or change things up from character to character?
