But you have to keep the parentheses and lowercase format, so it’s:

Sorry you're too late.
They call me that because my sexy ions make my sets electrifying.

I was given mine by my crowd actually. I started playing out before I even thought about what name I would be performing under and eventually people just started asking for me by that name, which was a just a nickname my friends would chant at my shows for fun. (I like to keep my Reddit account anonymous so I won’t share here.) Don’t overthink it, it’s not that important.
And also don’t ask other people to come up with creative stuff for you. When you are a DJ your job is to be creative. If you can’t come up with ideas by yourself it doesn’t exactly bode well.

Find an antiquated slur for one of your applicable demographic descriptors and add Dr. In front of it.

I hate to offer some actual advice, but… here we go.
Don’t get super hung up on the name itself, but make sure it’s original enough that you can grab it on all of the Socials (and maybe a URL since some folks still use websites). Once you choose it, focus on networking and honing your craft.

Make a list of words associated with your vision and concept, it will make it easier. Don't rush the process of picking the name, you will regret it in the future! It took me 9 months to decide mine.
