Why not use your real name 2 Fly?
That would actually be sorta original.
'cause it's a bit odd, and wouldn't really have the same effect I want.
2fly is a good working name. but if you arent comfortable, think of something you like or what about music you like and build something off that.
I dunno, 2Fly came from Ballin', many people said I was 'too fly' or 'too flashy' etc.
But I don't really like it as a producer name, 1) sounds a bit too old school / breakdancer-esque. 2) People seem to say it 'wrong'. And I don't like the way people say it ( lol )
I had several names I was thinking bout using, but half of them are took, and the rest don't 'sound' right, or capture my 'essence'(wtf) as much as I would like.
Finesse: Reason: Read the definition of it, kinda sums up a lot of how I do things in life.
Problem: Existing people = Lord Finesse, DJ Finesse (in fact, Windows Media Playa changed my tracks album art to DJ Finesse once, wasn't impressed.)
Iron Keys: Reason: People have commented on how I use quite hard pianos/keys in a lot of my tracks. And the whole 'iron' thing is kinda kung fu-like.
Problem: not sure if I like the ring to it, kinda cool though.
Iron Fingers: Reason: same reason as for 'iron keys', but is name of kung fu film.
Problem: Don't really like the way it sounds.
X
9th Prince: Reason: Name of the main villain in the film 'Iron Fingers of Death', and sounds kinda cool (though most of my people thought it sounded too random - as if the rest of my possible names don't)
Problem: Rapper already has that name. Also, possibly sounds like a cat of '9th Wonder'
X
Born Invincible: Reason: Name of a kung fu film + sounded cool, had a nice ring.
Problem: name in use.
X
Young Wisdom: Reason: always eager for knowledge/wisdom in everything, + sounds quite cool.
Problem: name in use, although might be just some waste breh, as in no one really doing big tings. Also the 'young' part of it I'm not so sure about.
Secret Sword: Reason: kinda like the idea of the name, not sure I can be bothered to try fully explain it right now.
Problem: sounds too geeky/random.
I'm going to have a very similar problem when it comes to chosing a tattoo, hence I'll probably never end up with one ha.
also, a problem with a lot of these names, could sound like I'm biting Wu-Tang Clan for their kung fu film references.
