Should I Use My Real Name Or A Nickname As My Stage Name? Please Help by udoekere(op): 1:08am On Feb 13, 2020
I am an upcoming gospel artiste and I have been struggling in the brainstorming of catchy names due to the fact that my real name (Aniebiet) is difficult to pronounce.

So I want to ask if it is advisable that I should get a nickname or go for my real name due to the kind of music I'm into.

Whichever works best for you.

A name that's unique and everyone can pronounce or write easily.

Something like Cardi B.
Imagine her stage name was Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar.
Sounds like a Constantine spell

As a gospel musician, I expect u to ask for Divine intervention, I mean trying to do things on your own without seeking God's face can never be fruitful.
Let him give u name n bro before u know it u don turn international.
ALWAYS ASK GOD FOR DIRECTION!
May God help u bro

I guess your real name is better, you are a prospective gospel singer and not an hiphop musician, your real name should sound better.


I could also remember when I was still in school then when I was the speaker of my faculty, I was told by my senior then, that when executing any project, never use your nickname, but your own real name for future purpose.
