Fake Name Generator Creates Your Alter Ego

by Lee Mathews Jul 2nd 2008

Anyone who has gained super powers through radiation exposure, cosmic rays, or scientific experimentation gone wrong knows how painfully difficult it can be to conceal your identity after the fact. Fortunately, there's a web site that will help you make the process much, much simpler.

Fake Name Generator does so much more than what its moniker implies. Not only will it create a (usually) convincing new name, but it'll also give you a corresponding address, phone number, mother's maiden name, phone number - even a social security and visa number. Though we're not entirely sure it's a good idea to go passing those around.

The clever engine will even piece together an email address and domain name for you AND check to see if they're available. Now that's useful. If you're going for a safe, secondary online identity you may as well have a convincing email to go along with it.

At last we're safe to use our powers for good without fear of being discovered by our nemeses!

I don't know how accurate the results are in other languages/countries but I tried to generate two female identities for Spain and I can say no one would believe them as the names are all wrong, outdated (you won't find many teenagers named Genara) or misspelled (Gracias, as in thank you, for Gracia). Maybe some of those weird names are in use in Latin American countries but sure they are not Spaniard names, be careful.

well, I played with french names...
I know we've been invaded and f***** a few times these last two millenniums, but some names don't simply sound legit...

Here's the only three fake names you'll ever need in life:

Lance Uppercut
Rock Strongo
Dash Riprock

Those names will always get the job done.

I've always enjoyed Loquacious Q. Farnsworth...

This is the only alter ID I would need. Mr. Mai Bigkok

Ken, I doubt that anybody would believe that was your real name...

Maybe if you told them your name was Mr. Biggie Mantits.

Civiballs is a beautiful, soothing physics puzzle Time Waster

I have an absolute weakness for physics games, and while Civiballs isn't the strongest physics-based game, what it lacks in the physics department it makes up for a few times over in style and fun.

In Civiballs, you are presented with a few colored balls, and your goal is to get those balls into the same-colored urn on the level. The "civi" part of Civiballs is that there are 3 sets of levels to play, each representing a different civilization. While the civilization doesn't affect gameplay, the artwork for each level is beautifully themed to it's appropriate era.

To play the game, you are given only one tool - a sword with which to cut the chains that are holding the balls. The puzzle part of the game is in figuring out what order, and with what timing to cut each chain. Do it right, and all the right balls end up in the right urns, with no stray balls entering an urn (a no-no). Do it wrong, and you get to start over again.

Civiballs is not terribly deep on gameplay; the entire game can be completed in about 15 minutes. But if you enjoy this type of game, it will be a very enjoyable 15 minutes.
