My system is I have one main name (Trafton) and an aka I use for playing (Zypher.) I then have a few other names that are very unlikely to be used (Moocow, Moochicken, WarpSpy, Evilist - Not the stupid RK one, I had this name since 1999) that I use in case I want to be unrecognized for a while, kind of like a "private" false indentity so people stop trying to talk to me while playing.

Really, I don't care which name you choose. In the other topic you got offended for someone else being named "Firebolt." How would you feel if you joined a community and someone instantly started flaming you for having the same name as them, called you a n00b, and told you to get a new name? Also, are you offended in real life when people have the same first name as you? I seriously dobut you would say (if you were named Andrew), "Andrew is my name. Around me and the people I know, you have to use a different name."
