Ok, so I am trying to think of a new domain name for my portfolio. I am getting tired of iconolove. Anyways, how did you guys come up with your names?

i like having my name as my portfolio. no way to get bored of it that way.

Yeah, I was thinking about going that route too.. its just interesting to see how some designers came up with their names.

Coming up with names is really hard. Before I buy a domain, I'd have to think about it long and hard.

i traded a logo design for a host, for free hosting for life. only catch i had to think of a name while on the phone. so, looking at my desk 64crayons was already taken, next item, boxofsharpies. so. boxofsharpies.com it was.
douglasseyller.com is of course my name.

Granted that "the work speaks for itself" but its nice to have a name that is easy to remember.. Its seriously gonna drive me insane trying to think of a new name.

also, it helps if the name is easy to spell. No one can ever remember how to spell my last name (It's Philip, but everyone spells it with two Ls or an S at the end or something). So I pretty much screwed myself over when I picked my name as my domain.

i went to a high school that made me take latin for 5 years (the school started at 7th grade) so i chose 'adaugeo' which is latin for 'to make great'.
pronounced 'ah-daj-ee-oh'
