Stage Name

Many idols have stage names right? Like Miku, Bou and Kanon of An Cafe? Heath of X Japan? A lot of Kpop idols like TOP, Leeteuk, Yesung and Kangin for example. A stage name says a lot about this person's character, their image and what you expect from it.

For example, Yesung of Super Junior, real name is Kim Jong Woon, his stage means Artist Voice, well it suits really well, in case you don't know, SJ is composed of 13 members+2 Chinese members that appear in their sub group 'Super Junior-M' , he is one of the main vocalists in the band.

Can you guys think of any other stage names? Jrockers are quite mysterious, a lot of them, I thought their real names were their stage names but it's not. Like Gackt Camui or Kamijo, Teru, Jasmine... is Hizaki and Yuki their real names? >.< I'm not sure, I only know the first three use stage names. There are so many that use stage names like 'Hitsugi of Nightmare' Hitsugi means Coffin in Japanese which is scary itself but actually, Hitsugi is a very sweet and shy person, I know his pictures are always of him with heavy makeup and multiple piercings.

When I think of Bou of An Cafe, I think of something cute and he is cute. LOL

So as you gathered a stage name says a lot.


Well after much deliberation, I decided that the name most suitable for me is 'Prince Happiness' why because I have always been fascinated with like the style of clothes that Versailles where it gives off a 'prince' feeling and 'happiness' because people always say I look happy, and don't I want people to be happy when they hear my performances? >.<

You like it or you don't?

  1. i like your stage name! :D and if you think that it suits is more than perfect!

    i think all the artist choose a stage name which suit their personality, i mean kanon (an cafe) choose his name from a character of a manga who was a gothic musician, i think it suits him because he loves the anime/manga and he has the "darker" appearence of an cafe.

    and jasmine you for example i guess he choose jasmine because he used to crossdress and it was a beatiful name and "you" i think it was for his real name "yuuichi".

    1. Thank You! Such a nice comment to read, I was worried that people wouldn't like it.

      Jasmine You's name suits him perfectly, it gives off a beautiful and gentle being, I just wished that he was still alive.

      Kanon's stage name is cool, does that mean Teruki, Takuya and Yuki are the only ones using their real names in An Cafe then? >.<

    2. yes i think we all miss jasmine you in versailles TT-TT but masashi is doing an awesome work too!

      mm... i'm not sure, takuya is his real name but he uses to write it in roman letters and not in japanese characters so we took them as stage name and not as his real name although it is!...teruki uses his real name and no one knows about yuki .__. a mistery...

    3. Yes Masashi is awesome, I also really miss hide and Taiji of X Japan, although Sugizo and Heath are great though! I just wished they were still alive at least.

      Yuki is so mysterious just like Gackt. :)
