What makes a great DJ name?

A great DJ name is memorable, reflects your music genre, is easy to shout at a crowded festival, and has clean social handle availability.

Should I put "DJ" in my stage name?

Only do this if you want a classic, retro hip-hop vibe. Modern electronic artists generally omit the prefix for a sleeker brand.

Classic examples include Daft Punk, Skrillex, Deadmau5, Avicii, and Tiësto.

Keep it to one or two syllables. Short names have higher recall value and look excellent on event flyers.

Avoid duplicate names. It is highly recommended to seek unique, trademark-free stage names to protect your music copyright.
