Don't judge me! Anyway, I have a semi-noble/selfish cause, and it is NOT perverted I assure you. I agree with your something-girly + number comment though. That my pass on AIM with legions of needy teenage boys, but not where I am going to use it. Pretty much, it needs to be realistic enough so that if people thought you were a guy, the name would convince them otherwise.

Hey, who am I but some ugly guy rapidly approaching middle age... take pride in your weirdness and tell me to f*ck off 😛 Anyhow, heed my suggestions. Others' suggestions of "dummygurl69" and such elicit, at best, images of mentally retarded britney spears fans - and at worst, images of 50 year old guys who are bad actors. If you want to appear as a more worldly and/or mature woman, do not follow them. You need something a bit unique. Best bet is to borrow from the fantasy/rp world.
