I have no idea what name to use. I am tired of tagging myself as Ethan, BooT and Sanjuro.
I want a GOOD name, something cool, unique and something that would fit well in most pieces of art.
Any ideas guys?

I need a GOOD artist username for art websites.

... Your first+last name.
If you want trk professionally, that is what you should use. Assuming it's not a common name like John Smith.
People will take you seriously if you do that. You can't sign a painting with xXx1337saucexXx.
Or a slight tweak of your name if you don't want your last name known, Ethant or something. Ethanimal. Ethasaurus. etc.
That way, signings can still use your name and not be confusing, and people will still know your name to address you personally. And you still have great SEO for a unique username.

Maybe I should have made this more understandable and less retarded. ):
I don't draw, I do customizations. I do computer art such as signatures, wallpapers and shit like that.
Most artists use usernames to display on their art, some not at all.
I just don't want to be lame ass LogicalityF3 on DeviantArt any more.

Oh, yes, for computer art, username it is.
Assuming you don't want to move out of that area and do it for a living. For example, wallpapers would make for a great portfolio in a concept art application, if you want to do computer art for a living.
Just pick something. You can't ask others for usernames.
GAMEchief, for example, is an acronym. GAming MEdley chief. Means owner of the website Gaming Medley. Describes me. Has meaning. At the time I picked it, it was how I defined my online presence.
Define yourself. Be artsy with your name like you would with your art. Use something you will love forever. Ask yourself what you will love forever.

Based on the adorable Miles Tails Prower in your signature, I would say to base it around that, because Miles is a totally underutilized name, and Sonic is a ballin' series.

Yeah. It's a bitch finding a good one. All the ones I had before this one are horrendous. I suppose in that respect, it took me some 7 years to come up with one I liked.

I use Snow and Yuki (which is japanese for Snow)
Sanjuro sounds like a nice name.
Humans yawn when they think of it.
