    Making a Blog - Need a name.

    Hello everyone. I am starting a blog soon for things about gaming and computer stuff.

    I am pretty knowledgeable in these subjects.

    I am trying to come up with a name that is catchy, unique, memorable, and concise.

    I would like the name to contain Castro, as that is my last name and is pretty unique. Thanks in advance!

    Hmmm. Despite Castro being a really cool name.

    I think you should call it: I was told there would be cake.

    "Gamer" is not a bad word. I identify as a gamer. When calling out those who persecute and harass, the word you're looking for is "asshole." @_DonAdams
    When you see someone in a thread making the same canned responses over and over, click their name, click view forum posts, and see if they are a troll. Then don't feed them.

    I will be using tumblr. I plan to make my blog about computers, games, and food.

    I hope this will refine it!

    If you're going to use the name Castro and you don't reference Fidel Castro (even in a nonoffensive manner), people are going to lose faith in your ability to be entertaining, because that's the first thing that pops up in your head when you hear "Castro". Using Castro in your title will force you to reference him, and by not doing so, it'll feel awkward.

    It's like if my name was Hitler and I made a blog with my name on it, but nowhere do I jokingly reference Hitler himself. It would be like a giant elephant in the room.
