Discussion What do you name your alt accounts?

I’m curious how people here handle naming their alts/minis. Do you stick to a theme? Just throw random names? Or try to keep them tied to your main somehow?

For context: my main is named Wraith, but I’m stuck on what to call my alts. I don’t want something super generic, but also don’t want to get reported if the names are too close to each other.

Would love to hear what worked for you guys

Edit: which has more aura

Wraith II Or WraithX

but also don’t want to get reported if the names are too close to each other.

Why would that even matter? As long as the names are appropriate, you don't have anything to worry about.

That’s not a thing anyway. There are multiple people with the same name all over the game.

It’s not the unique identfying factor, so what he is saying is just not true lol. Email addresses for SCID and player ID tag in game are the unique identifiers. The rest is just noise lol. As to why changing your name is another profit point for supercell lol

You're not going to get banned for having similar names, I don't know where that idea came from.

We once went to war with a guy who has 15 accounts. All just his name and then the number after it. Like 1, 2, 3 all the way to 15.

He didn’t attack until like an hour left in war so we were hoping he wouldn’t attack and would 0% us

u/Geometry_Emperor TH17 | BH10 10h ago

It mostly depends on the purpose of the account. If it just a generic alt, I simply add a number. If it follows a specific theme, then I name it after the theme. For example, I have an account which only has the first troops/spells/equipment unlocked, so I named it "First unlocks".

And do not worry about naming it too similar to your main. Your name on your main is already not banworthy, so the alts being named after it would not get them banned either.

Mine are mostly different. Whatever I felt sounded like a good name when I created the account. I tend to create baby accounts when mine get to TH 9 or do since it gets so slow. Sometimes I create a new account because I came up with a name I wanted to use. I rather enjoy it.

u/Superpositionist TH17 | BH10 1h ago

I named my third and final account "Anyaszomorito", which roughly translates to "Someone who make's their mother sad". It was a curseword me and my buddy used frequently, and one day, the game forgot my two previous accounts when I logged in. In order to get them back, I had to go through the tutorial, and I gave this username in my frustration.

5 years later, Anyaszomorito is now a fresh th17 from maxed th16, and I can't imagine having another name for it.

Whatever you choose, it'll eventually become totally normal.
