Do you have any pen names you’re going to use or just made for fun? Is there a meaning or story behind it or is it just a fun name you came up with? Share pen names here!

Ooo those are really cool names! And I like the origins behind each one. If I ever write with a pen name it will probably be something relating to my middle name or my aunty’s name, but idk if I ever will
Vera Paloma! I'm literally in loveI know I've said it a lot but honestly they are amazing! ♡
I literally just copied and reworded the paragraph from our message but added that one lol. glad you like it
Thought so lol- noticed the change hahaI do that sometimes- saves time
Funny though because I sometimes call you in my head ( if that makes sense) Paloma Vera
I once tried Alyssa Cass because those were my initials and I had an obsession with double s. Also tried Allie Awaters but it didn't make since. Now I use a translation of my mandarin name: Grace Heart.

My pen name (harrieta) is actually my name with a different spelling. I came across this name (harriet) when I was looking at different pen names in a website, it is kinda like love at first sight idk haha (god I am lame)

It is not lame!
no it is not lame, I love it and like Ruqayyah said if it makes you happy then that’s meaningful enough!
I am working on my first novel and since it includes personal info about my own mental illness, I think I might use a pen name. I'm playing around with Sadie Saunders. I produced a podcast once using the name Sadie, and Saunders sounds good with it (not too far from my actual last name, plus I am a Bernie fan, so reminiscent of him).
I've always thought of what my pen name would be since I wanted to become a writer and it's between a couple names some of them are names of my ocs who I have made(*coughs* I have over a 100 ocs I have problems *coughs*) one of them is Karmic Thunder after an oc who jumped out of windows during a big fight and is my second non-binary oc I have made and another one of them is my online name which is Karma Holmes and the last one is a mix of the other two name which is Karma Karmic Holmes-Thunder or Karmic Karma Thunder-Holmes and I have been writing a book with one of my friends since 7th grade and let's just say we have developed strong bonds with our ocs that we have made and when I was in middle school I had some of my writing make it into a book that showed art projects and writing from students
(to both of you) Those are great! and I love how there’s stories behind them!I have a problem with excess ocs too lol

but for now its just Osh its from the name Oshawott one of my fav pokemon"
Cool!
actually, my pen name is Ray. Lol
I did a secret message thing and called myself Mystery Girl XD But tbh, I don't have a pen name lol
Cool!I actually sent you one the other day on that mystery message thing.
Not so much of a mystery now though Lol
Oh it's fine, I probably wouldn't have before either
Were you the Bible verse one? Or the one with the you matter to me, never give up one?
@Taz, sorry I never saw that but a bit of both as you know x@Osh- Nice! Jigsaws are fun, doing the 1000 pieces is something I've been helping my aunt with but the one week she gave up on it and broke it apart and the fact we were almost done too!
I actually have a bunch of pen names. Apparently, most of them start with Howler? I don’t know, man. Lets see…-HowlerPlayz (main one)
-HowlerDraws (eh?)
-Desynia5150 (…there goes my real name lol)
-urMumiie (……when did I even make that one?)
-Anonymous (C’mon, we’ve all used it at least once. …right? ,. RIGHT?!)
-Clamp37 (we don’t talk about it)
LOL They sound greatDesynia is such a unique name
Thank you! I’m actually the first person to have my name in the whole world. My mother and her little sister (who uh…died last year, Jan. 10th..-) picked out my name, and my mom gave it the definition “Gift of God”.Need help pronouncing it? I got chu.
(Dee-SIN-Yah)
Really? That is so cool!Sorry for your loss, may she rest in peace.
Honestly though- that name is stellar!
I dont actually have a pen name - I just go with my initals E.P
really? I could see it being an author name, but it’s up to you :) pen names can be fun
My pen name will be Estelle Eirene Eaumont.
✧Amelia wrote: "I think I would do one bc Amelia Hensley does not really sound like an authors name"It sounds great and an author’s name is really the name of an author, so there's no rules
rosie wrote: "My pen name will be Estelle Eirene Eaumont."Oo, nice!
✧Amelia wrote: "so I have a book named escaping our face. so Escaping our Fates by Amelia Hensley"Oo, sounds great!
UPDATED PEN NAME
I'm thinking of sticking with Karma Holmes as I love the name Karma which is what I go by irl plus it's a gender-neutral name

Just got done beta reading a novel and the author is going to put my name in the acknowledgements as Emma Black. It's a pen name, but since this was my first time beta reading, it's going to be really cool to see my name in the back of the book once it's published!
Who is Emma? wrote: "Just got done beta reading a novel and the author is going to put my name in the acknowledgements as Emma Black. It's a pen name, but since this was my first time beta reading, it's going to be rea..."WOW! That's amazing!
