What sort of logic or method would you use to pick a gimmick name if you signed in NXT?
We've all read the stories about how Sami Zayn, Finn Balor and Kevin Owens mixed their actual names or cultural history and stuff like that but then we get guys like Luke Harper and his indy name of Brodie Lee - why those names? His gimmick surnames become Harper Lee - is he a fan of the books?
So what would you use as a methology for your ring name?

I would mix the names of two of my wrestling heroes. On a Ugandan giant; the other stripped on top of the ECW Arena. I am Kamala Wanalaya.

My gimmick would be a heelish riding instructor who manages a stable of elite super athletes.
So my name would be something pretentious and aristocratic.

I'd just combine a bunch of first or last names that creative has inexplicably taken from established stars, since nobody else is using them.
I'm thinking Adrian Alexander Antonio Langston.

I'd go the HBK route and use my middle-name and Mother's maiden name, so James Turner.
Or just stick with AJ Powell, seeing as it's technically not my real name.

I would take mine from indy names that other NXT people had to drop when they changed theirs, so:
Uhaa Generico
or
Fergal KENTA Moxley
