>What makes a good pen name?
In short, the best pen name is one that does not exist. But I can give you a longer answer if you want.
I have thought of a few examples. The name 'X' is pretty good. It's certainly easy to remember, and if you use the same initial for your first and surname it has a nice symmetry about it. Another good name is 'O', but that has a problem. You can't use it twice, and you don't want to be too similar to 'X'. Also there's the risk that someone might confuse you with Barrack 'futa cock sucker" Obingobong. Another good option is 'God'. It's memorable, so you would certainly stand out from the crowd. But there are problems with this name. First of all, you have to be a deity in order to use it. And I know for sure that you're not a god. Secondly, the name is kind of narcissistic. I mean, who wants to be thought of as God? You would probably turn out to be a narcissist.
