A nickname is an alias you use on dating websites to identify yourself to other members. All other members in the chat room and exchanging email with you will know you by that nickname, at least at first. Your nickname represents you throughout the website.
For this reason, you should spend some time choosing a good one. Here are six tips for men who want to choose a nickname that is attractive in women's eyes.
1. Do not choose something about sex. You will not attract women by picking a nickname about sex. You will basically just be wasting your time. Things like "Bob_69U" are a no-no.
2. Do not choose something violent. Do not choose anything that hints at any kind of hatred or violence. There is no room on dating websites for that sort of thing anyway, and women are not looking for people who talk about violence or hatred.
3. Do not choose something negative. Negativity is not attractive to women, or to anyone for that matter. Women just don't respond well to negativity, and if she's a woman who does, then you might not want to be in a relationship with her anyway.
4. Do choose something that describes you. Take some time to think about who you are. Ask your friends what they like about you. Look at yourself through someone else's eyes. Use that information to pick a nickname.
For example, if you are an airplane pilot, you could choose "AutoPilot." If you like to run marathons, you could choose "ActiveRunner."
5. Do choose something that you are looking for. If you are looking to raise a family, you could choose something like "FamilyGuy." Think about what you want in life and what kind of women you like. What qualities and values are you looking for? Write them down on a piece of paper, then use them to inspire your nickname.
6. Do be creative. Spend some time finding a nickname that is unique. If your nickname is already taken and you need to put a number at the end to be able to use it, then it is probably not original enough.
"BlueEyes," "BrownHair," or "TallMan" are all descriptive but not unique, they will not help you to stand out. If you want to highlight your height, for example, you could choose "ColossalAtHeart." If environmental issues are important to you, you could pick "BlueEarth."
What's important about choosing your nickname is to find a benign term that has something to do with you. Spend some time brainstorming. Write on a piece of paper all ideas that come to mind, whether they are good, bad, stupid, funny, or dull, until you find one that really makes you think, "OK, that's the one."
Having a good nickname on a dating website might not sound like the most important thing, but it does represent you right from the start. If you are serious about finding a good woman for a long-term relationship or even for a casual date, you should spend the time required to make it happen. You have to choose a nickname anyway, so you might as well do it right.
I remember having a woman tell me that the reason she emailed a man was because of his nickname. That's how they started their online relationship, by becoming friends after a conversation about the name he chose.
