"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet"
I have always been a conniseur of the strange nomenclature, mixing it at times to cultural disambiguation with normal names in previous stories.(*7 crystals... my god.... 7 Crystals)
I came up with beautiful elaborate names growing up, or at least, they were beautiful and elaborate to me.
Cabayo was one of those names, Hartley Torn, another. Execurus, a name came up with when i was ten for a fox constellation. Crazy freaking names. Aileeron Romenoren, the name of a white lion. but for characters that represented me.... for some reason, far less creativity was ever exibited, Foxena Wolf, Fox Tiberon, Kathleen The Blade. "Foxena" was cool to me but created when i was 12, i never shook the name even though the story attached to her should be burned in a fire. I still use the name today but only in usernames as its honestly just easy to remember i've used it for nearly 15 years now.
I prefer 3 letter words for my "name" Throughout my later years of highschool i unnoficiaily changed my name to "Kat" which i still use as a nom de plume and very few people outside of my parents and family call me by my "real" name. (you can imagine how weird it was for my parents to simply avoid adressing me by any name at all at conventions, since hearing them say "Kat" instead of my real name, from them, was weird. But having them say my name in front of others, was equally distressing, so I instead trained them to simply NOT say my name. They'd tap me on the shoulder if they needed me for something or when talking about me "our daughter is so creative" not "[redacted] is so creative"
These days, on stream, here on FA, and largely at conventions I go by one or both names. "Fox" or "Kat" I don't mind that my name is a dime a dozen, i don't care that "Fox" is used by more people in the fandom than anywhere else in various incarnations. I am not my name and my name will never fully define me. I will instead define my name, however people know me by. I may be one of a million Foxes or Kats. But its what i DO with the boring, the mundane, the unoriginal, that will have people know me for more than just a label.
* 7 crystals was the name a furry novel i wrote originally when i was 16, and refined and attempted to publish at age 18.... I'd put it on the same level as Twilight and i am not proud of this at all

That -vic though is almost one syllable too much so generally I(and other folks) only use Lud or Ludo(I once got a few Labyrinth-related jokes because of that) when talking about me.
I actually only use Fringedog here because I originally was too much of a chicken to use my real name when I originally joined FA. Everywhere else I generally use a variation of my name.
