Maybe use just part of your name, like Lim Han? That may be even easier to remember. I think it's kind of catchy too.

Hi Lim Han.
Did you eventually find that elusive stage name? One name I used to use before I became (Tricky Ricky),and I still do for banquets is (Ricki Rickshaw). Richard. |

Somebody listed Uncle harry's real name as Henri Bouton, he was actually born Henry Boughton. Both sides of the family later changed the spelling to Bouton for reasons unknown. My great grandfather, Harry's uncle, apparently changed it first and spelled all his kids names. People often did that way back when to avoid bankruptcy, but as I recall uncle harry was originally Harry Boughton, then with uncle pete was the Defranchsco brothers, then Harry Bouton, then Fredrick the Great, then finally Blackstone.
I two have undergone many a change in stage name, usually to hide from angry audiences, sometime I've had to change my stage name between tricks ![]()

I think that a stage name is fine but it doesn't necessarily have to be The Amazing ________ or ____________ the Magnificent. I once toyed with the idea of adding an ini or oni to my last name but then I found out that Johnny Thompson already was known as The Great Tomsoni... so that was out... How about dropping my last name and using my middle name... Bill Alexander... is there a magician with that name?

So...don't hate me for my stupid name! LOL! :) Doug |

Harry Jansen performed as Dante.
I read something years ago suggesting that people were most likely to remember stage names of 5 letters. Looking over the listed stage names of both Magicians and Actors, it appears that that particular bit of advice is balogna. Hmmm, "Baloni's Amazing Mysteries...."

As you are in Malaysia, I guess you need a name that is also nice in Malay or soemthing that does not require much language skill.
How about Mag-Lite?

Just remember that the suffix "-ini" literally means "like, or resembles".
For example, "Houdini" means "like (Robert) Houdin", who was Houdini's idol. So "Dougini" up there means "like Doug", which he is, because he IS Doug! Now my brain hurts...

Hi there,
I like your name already! Han Chung Lim sounds good, and rolls off the tongue! Sounds a bit like Sim Sala Bim, but maybe that's just me! Hope this helps! Many thanks Magical Mark Watson (mark1991)
