Creating A New Channel And Need Help With A Name.

Cay

Ytalks Reviewer
So this wasn't a decision I made lightly. So once again people from my school have found my channel and It's causing issues for me at school. So I've decided to create a new one but this time I need to not include "Cay" In the name of the channel even though that's always been my online avatar. The reason for this is when trying to find my current channel they would search for my original one which was "Thecay1998" So due to Cay being in both that channel and the channel I have now I think it was quite easy for them to find me.

So I need to create a New channel name that does not include my online avatar name which is really difficult to do. So does anyone have any ideas?

Are people seriously bullying you about this youtube channel? If this is the case then tell a teacher. If you enjoy making this content then you shouldn't bother with them.
I mean people will find out about your channel eventually. Rather than changing your channel name and starting all over again, why not embrace it as free promotion?

I was embarrassed when people at my college, work and my family found out about my channel. People used to quote stuff from my videos in a way that kinda made fun of it. But now I confidently post and talk about it. I take the jokes in my stride and it just means I can entertain more people!

If the extent of people troubling you about your channel is really serious, talk to someone you trust about it rather than changing the name. Because eventually they will probably find it again.

But if you don't want to do that, why not something like.... CYInsight? :-)

The issue is where I live a few people do youtube videos, They're not picking on me because of my videos themselves. They're picking on me because of the fact it is ME that makes them. It just gives them an avenue to target me if you know what I mean. So I have to create a new one and pretend that I'm not making them at all in order for it to stop. Like there are other people at my school that make videos but don't get picked on purely because of their social status. In some cases such as my year 8 and 9 form tutor, the teacher would play a video of mine on the smartboard for all to see during form time. I go to a terrible school ya see. I'm able to put up with them taking the mick. The issue however is that i feel worried while i'm speaking during my videos about what some people at school will say about what i've said. So creating a new channel would give me the peace of mind of being able to say whatever i want without worrying about them seeing it.
 
Stop worrying about bullying, i know its not easy but eventually your channel will grow assumming you make good content and put alot of effort into videos. And if you start making money from youtube who will be laughing then?

As I said, It's not the fact i make videos they pick on me about. It's the fact it's ME making these videos. On my original channel i was making money. They knew, and it was just something else they could take the mick out of. They don't think logically.

That does sound s*** man :( I understand your point. If creating a new channel is truly what you believe is the best option, then go for it :-)

But in the chance they might find it, it just sounds like a repeated short term solution. Challenging it may be the long term solution.
If those teachers are showing them during form class, I suggest asking them to stop. Their probably showing it because they think it is benefactual to the class friendship. Have you asked them to stop? Because if they are doing something when you have asked them to stop because it is causing bullying, then dude that could get them fired for assisting in the belittlement of a child in what supposed to a stable and safe learning environment.

Tbh It wasn't short term, I created my first channel in 2010. Then created Caysopinion in early 2013. So it's stayed hidden for almost a year. And the good part is, in three months I'm done with high school all together and Don't see any of these people again. So a new channel would be permanent as long as it stayed hidden for a few weeks which it would

In these cases you have to be able to rise above the bullying man. Just because they pick on YOU specifically, doesn't mean you eliminate all avenues for them to bully you. They will find another way, because as you said "they don't think logically".
And if its the case you are done with highschool in a few months then do you think that the bullying is that extreme that you can last for a couple of months without it?
If it is that serious tell your parents, a teacher or someone of authority. As I said, the teachers can't intentionally being adding to the bullying otherwise their job would be in jeopardy.
Do you still have you old channel? cause if so, relaunch that s*** man if you were making money off it! :biggrin:

But these are all just my opinion. If you want to change your channel go ahead. Still think CYInsight is a pretty good name :-)
 
You haven't given much insight about your interests or anything about you, so how could anyone make up a channel name for you? Why don't you just kick some a** next time you get bullied? You're young enough to get away with it. I know I regret not getting comeuppance when I had my rare bullying instance.
