I'm just not sure.... and I'm thinking of not even putting DJ in from of the name (it's a bit over-rated).... but yea... some friendly input would be much appreciated. and let me know if any names are already taken.


"Aren" is beautiful, what's wrong with just "Aren"? I think that would be great as a DJ name, sounds a lot more professional than "DJ Aren" or DJ-anything, if you ask me.

If you think "Aren" is too short, use Aren X., where "X" is the first letter of your last name.

My rule of thumb for DJ names is that if you don't have a name that you always had in mind, or if you can't think of one, it's generally a better idea to just use your real name, because if you can't think of one right now, if you do decide on a DJ moniker, you will regret that particular one later on.

So just "Aren" is fine, IMO.

I've been using RedRum for about a year or so (got www.djredrum.com registered...unfortunetly redrum.com was already taken :/ )
I got it from an old movie with Weird Al Yankovich and Michael Richards called "UHF"....and weird al enters the channel 6 room acting like rambo and then he's like 'redrum, Reeeedddrummmmmmm'

at first it was a joke kinda name, but it sounds pretty cool after all

yea it really is a sweet name...keep it.

Elmo.. RedRum is pretty damn good too... with or without the DJ in front...

I'm still scrambled as to what's good and what isn't..I agree with "Aren", but it seems to short.

I personally am not a fan of make-believe names, such as DJ DOMINATORRRRRRRRRRRR! lol...its so cheesy. Just go with a real name, first and last. Make it up if you have to, but no fake slang names. Tiesto is the only one who gets away with it, notice everyone else who is respected and big have a real name.

Another Note: My Name is Steven Michael Hays, I use Evan Almae!
and...Paul van Dyk, the van Dyk is not his real last name, and Jon Obir's name is not real either!

peace.

Steve

"RedRum" is "Murder" spelt backwards

Saw it on a movie a while ago .. think it was Stephen King's "The Shining"
