How it works

Do you want to write a new book, but are worried that people will know who you are? Or, do you want to start a blog on the Internet, but don’t want to give out your real name?

You’re not alone. Many writers use pen names, and it’s not uncommon for bloggers and novelists to write under a pseudonym especially when working on sensitive projects. The problem is that if you use your real name, you’ll have to deal with the inevitable problems that come with being a celebrity: fans, stalkers, and paparazzi. If you use a pen name, you can write anonymously, giving you total freedom not only from fame, but also from both the positive and negative consequences of your work.

The challenge that comes with using a pen name is that you’ll have to create a new identity for yourself. It’s about coming up with a different persona that will invoke the feeling of mystery and wonder among your readers. The more intrigued your target audience is, the more they will want to read your book or blog.

Alternatively, you can also use pen names to create unique characters for your stories. In fact, one of the biggest reasons why we’re so fascinated by fictional characters is because we can relate to them on a deeper level.

If you want to create pen names that are both creative and memorable, you can use our online Pen Name Generator to help you get started. Simply specify the gender and origin of the character you want to create, and let our Pen Name Generator do its magic. We have tens of thousands of name ideas in our database, and each one is guaranteed to be unique. Best of all, our Pen Name Generator is free to use, so you can generate as many names as you want without any restrictions.
