Currently my DJ Alias is DJ "GRIEF3R". I produce music similarly to Hardwell, Martin Garrix, Tiesto, David Guetta etc... I made GRIEF3R as a name for Progressive House as the name was inspired by deadmau5, with the 3 and the name came from his song "Professional Griefers" This name was quick and I did not take too much time to think about how I want to make DJ etc... a profession.

Most will say it's fine. However I don't hear power behind it when I hear DJ GRIEF3R. It's also annoying saying to people that the last 'E' is a three.

Personally I think it is time to re-brand. Especially now I want to take this hobby into more of a career in my life.

My name is Mathew Vaughan (Yes, 1 'T'). I like and prefer artists who use their own name for the most part, e.g. Martijn Garritsen (Martin Garrix) However I need feedback and help on varying my name. If I want it to sound good. I need to know from you guys if you like it or not.

The names I am current thinking of is Mathew George (George is my middle name) or Matt Vaughan. Mathew George however sound too much like a House artist. I want my name to sound more edgy and powerful. Matt Vaughan gets me questioning due to how people can't spell Vaughan when it is spoken due to it being pronounced as 'VAWN'.

I just need help on a cool DJ name. It's been bugging me for over 2 years that I haven't got a mature, cool, edgy, modern and unique DJ name.

Again, don't say GRIEF3R is fine. As it just doesn't reflect my style of production/DJing.

Help is GREATLY APPRECIATED! Just post a comment stating on what you have in mind!

I see this has been plaguing you all year.

It says in the other thread that you feel like your regular name isn't catchy enough, but maybe a slight change is all you need. Matt Vaun? Similar, but easier to spell. Or just Vaughan. It sounds interesting when considered a first name, especially spelled like that.
Maybe even George Vaun if you wanna get wild.

George isn't a name I really associate with "edgy and powerful", though. It has too much association with Ye Olde Times and ASDA

Now, Mat V is short and punchy, the one 't' makes it more unique, the V is sharp and, well, edgy. And Vs are great for stylizing and logos.
