What’s in a name, really? As it turns out, in the camming industry, names carry a lot more value than you’d think! Some of the most famous cam girls have even made them their personal brands. Best of all, the fact they are memorable has given them a chance to earn a lot more than they expected.
Yet, when it comes to sexy username ideas, novice cam girls are stuck in a rut. They consider using their real names only to find out they are just not hot enough. In the end, they resort to trying some random sexy nickname generator, which offers results that are — you guessed it — quite generic.
Well, to give yourself the best chance in this industry, it’s time to put pen to paper and let your creativity take over. Choosing a cam girl name doesn’t have to be difficult; all you need to remember is to keep it simple!
How to choose a cam girl name: 6 rules to remember
1. Make it real
Have you ever tried using a webcam model name generator? Though you may already know that all the best cam girls have names that sound totally real, the Internet hasn’t really caught up yet. In the sea of generators, at least 90% of them will produce something that looks like this: Pay2Play Tart, Aimz2Please.
When camming, you definitely shouldn’t condemn your clients to these tongue-twisters. Not only are they challenging to read, but they don’t say anything about you. Worst of all, they aren’t sexy but robotic; if you opt for one of these, don’t expect anyone to form a real connection with you.
So what can you do? As said, keeping it simple is the best policy. Think of a name that you like and that sounds completely real. It should be a name your clients can freely use and that they will love hearing on their lips.
Additionally, try to match the name to your persona. If you’re a bit goth, pick something like Scarlett or Raven. Otherwise, if you’re trying to convey an educated sexy vixen, go for a name like Bonnie, Lily, or Zooey.
Whatever you do, though, don’t opt for names that the world has made a meme out of, like Carol, or those that just sound rather severe, such as Gertrude, Helga, and Mildred. These could actually become obstacles to your success. There’s nothing catchy about them, and let’s face it — it’s unlikely they are hot girl aliases.
2. But don’t make it boring
However, it’s not advisable to just have one name, like Cher. You ought to add something to it to make it a bit more dazzling, sexier, and perhaps even a bit naughty. Nevertheless, remember to keep it short and sweet.
This part is where you can truly get creative. Think of adjectives such as delicious, tempting, or precious. Better yet, add a last name that sounds a bit dirty, like Cox or Ryder.
Names up to three to four syllables work the best in the camming industry, both because they’re easy to say and because they are often quite catchy.
The point is to make the name stand out so that your clients can easily look you up and say it when they want you to do something. It ought to slip off their lips without much hassle and be gentle to the ears.
Still, don’t think that you have to make it too sexy. Even something as Violet Sparks or Lucy Glitter would do; they’re memorable, fast to type in the search bar, and won’t make anyone’s ears bleed.
When in doubt, opt for some alliteration to create a unique webcam name. Some of the greatest examples include Alexis Texas, Jasmine Jade, Savannah Steel, etc. Additionally, don’t be afraid to use your favorite celebrities for inspiration, especially if you maybe look like them. Who knows? You could ride their wave of popularity and build a career based on it!
3. Stick to the typical spelling
Some of the worst, albeit sexy profile names are those that have a strange spelling. If you want to be known as Ashley X, don’t think you’ll make the name a bit more interesting by using Ashleigh or Ashlie. Those variations are just not common enough, unlike Ashlee, for example, which somehow looks better on the screen than Ashley.
But the main idea here is to allow your clients to find you easily. You don’t want them typing away for too long, trying to figure out the spelling. There’s a good chance they’ll give up at some point, or even worse — run into your competition instead.
4. Avoid already famous names
This part may be a no-brainer for some, as copyright infringement is a serious offense. But you would be surprised by how many people think it’s perfectly fine to use Disney in their nickname. Worst of all, although there’s a slim chance of anyone contacting you to remove it, it’s still pretty uninventive and boring!
However, you can maybe slip in some proper nouns, such as state or city names and perhaps even car brands. Debbie Denver sounds pretty hot, for example, and so does Laura Lexus.
5. When in doubt — mix and match
If you’re still struggling to think of some sexy profile names, don’t despair. Some of the best webcam model username ideas were actually a result of simply mixing and matching names of near-and-dear topics and themes.
For example, some cam girls take the name of their pet and combine it with the street they used to live in. Others may go a step further by using a baby name they found online and matching it with their mother’s maiden name.
In the end, to get a solid webcam name, you do have to let your creativity flow. However, don’t overdo it and think it has to be a work of art. The best things in life are often quite simple, so keep your name short and spicy to engrave it in your clients’ minds.
6. Check if the name is available at all
Finally, as the pièce de résistance, remember to check if the name you’ve chosen is available on social media and as a domain. Take some of your favorite picks and go online to see if anyone is already using them. More often than not, some cam girls believe they’ve picked a solid winner only to find out they may have to fight their namesake for traffic!
Why does this matter? It all comes down to taking full advantage of your camming potential. Social media could help you advance your career, not to mention that it may create an additional stream of income. On top of that, getting the domain name right now will help you to monetize your content a bit further down the line. Better yet, it will stop anyone else from stealing it so as to sell it to you at a much, much higher price.
Final thoughts
To become a sensation in the camming industry, you ought to be smart from the get-go. Your career doesn’t begin when you have your first show, but when you think of a name that will conquer the competition and stand out. So don’t wait for anyone to steal your thunder by being lazy and using a generator. You have everything you need to come up with a sizzling name — just use your imagination!
