Your music is more important. As long as you are ok with telling complete strangers what your artist alias is, and have a story behind the origin of the name you are good to go.

As with any culture, music has certain words, symbols and connotations that represent different genres of music. Be aware of what your artist name may represent, and what it may not. Choosing words that culturally align with your brand, and resonate with your values as an artist, will give potential fans a hint of what they can expect from you. Got a common name? Forget about using it as your artist moniker. If your artist name is too similar to another artist's, it will also make it hard for your fans to find you on platforms like Spotify, Deezer and Apple Music.
Going by your given name can work, but we recommend changing it up to make it more unique. Results with any of the search words present will be searched and sorted by relevance. You also prefix words with a minus character to exclude results containing this word. For example, if you wanted to search for artists with the name Smith but not the first name John, you would type: "smith -john". You can also enter partial surnames by typing in at least two letters from the beginning of the last name.
You may also search by time period. To see all artists named Bob who were alive during the 16th century, you could type: "Bob 16c". You can also search by nationality.
