I think that as long as your not using a legends name, your good. Like you said Some guy who is writing something all the way across the world is prob not even gonna know if you write the same thing. Mainly look who is in your city and choose something that’s not that.
Back in the day (early 1990's) one of my boy's gave me my writing name. To this day I still have to deal with new kids trying to rock my name. Till I saw your video I didn't really know why. I have been on tons of freights up and down the west coast, have been in a couple of graffiti magazines (remember those), and have been active dropping burners and doing productions with my crew all these years. If you google my writing name most of the clean funk styles are mine. After seeing your video, I somewhat get it. I'm old school and don't really like putting up my own stuff on the internet. Anything you find that's mine has been put up by others (it's like .5% of what I have done over the years). And maybe that's the problem. Back when I first started, having flix (pictures) of your stuff was a sure fire way of getting caught for everything you did. I didn't catch on to placing thing anonymously on the web as it was new at the time. There was always roomers by other writers that police run internet searches with local graffiti names to try and match your style to build cases (hay, it was the early 2000's). Like most old school writers of my generation we keep to our tight nit crews.
My tag name is Static. So if you ever see my graffiti in the future, keep a lookout for a TV head with 'static' on a wall. IDC if it's taken that's just the name I picked and stuck with it. But you know, every name is going to be taken one day so I guess we add our own legacy into our Names. 📺
I have a great tip for people who can’t choose their name: you just have to Write down the alphabet in tag form and then circle the letters you like. Make a word with some of those letters and there you got your tag
Frenklin lmao i always get people asking me to pick a name for them cuz they see me sketching in my notebooks and stuff imma definitely give them this tip now cuz it actually sounds pretty useful
then id end up with. E, S, T, A, R, O, P, K. and some of those letters cannot be everywhere, like id never end with a p, or start with a k, o or r. I don't want t and e to be next to each other. I only want a 4 or 5 letter name. the options are actually very limited. forming a nice sounding 4 letter word with some of the good letters after 45 years is not so easy. or you can just write kpotsreaoooo.
I started writing Rob1 in the 3rd grade and changed it in the 6th to Faks1 because a guy started writing it and he was from a bigger and more known crew. Rob CBS R.I.P. He was just more committed and also used it for his DJ name. Even though I started writing it first, it didn't matter. Sometimes the guys that come after do more with the name. Got to meet him and he was a good dude.
Yahman, I'am Dries from Amsterdam and painting about 25 years!! Around 15 years ago i decide to write my own name instead of an alter ego, so i started to write DRIES, 3 years ago i discorvered that there is also an DRIES in New Zealand. And now im busy to hook up with him and hopefully we gonna spray together!! RESPECT!!
Love your vids, they're helping me with getting up. Could you possibly make a vid about what to do for your first night out, like what to wear, how to transport your paint, if you should have a respirator or mask on, ect? Hit up "Sweets" my dude
Jeans and a hoodie ya don't care about cuz it's gonna get messy, a shopping bag for your cans in case you need to ditch them quick, it'll just look like a trash bag, you can take a respirator if you've got the balls, but it super impractical for risky spots, but ya know go for it if you want to, most likely nothing will happen
people are just gonna take your name if you post it here, I guess Ive always been more of a mural artist than a tag artist but I made up a name turns out its taken by a dog food company
I used to write LAZY (ONE) and I thought it was unique but it's still a pretty common name. I decided to change it back to a name I used to write that nobody has. I would tell you guys what I write now but I kinda don't want anyone to steal it and I also don't want to burn myself.
soulassassin0g no one really cares what you write but you can always tell people you know someone who writes a word if you don't wanna tell yours (IF YOU GET ME)
Most people know in the in the Ny metro who is who from coast to coast. You write something like lazy! You were lazy about the graff game to begin with
Here's something stupid me and this guy on reddit agreed to swap names a month or 2 later I asked if I could still use it he said "yeah use it all you want" so last week I was asking for some advice for my tag and he gets all pissy like hey that's my name dude like bro u said I could use it lmaoo
Imagine spending hours scouting your city and researching names and you end up picking some stupid name like _Coat Hanger_ Then you finally leave to write something and you see your name used by someone else already
Surprised you didn't mention Ewok MSK/Ewok 5MH, adding numbers like Cope2 and Keep6, or freight VS street like in the case of Kerse BTM(RIP)/Kerse AMFM
I see Toy up a lot in different cities and states. Toy always seems to have beef with others because Toy always crosses out or lines other writers and puts his or her name Toy next to the writer they crossed out. Maybe its more than one writer using that name since it’s a pretty common word. I’ve bet most of the commenters on this video have been crossed out and lined by toy.
This is an activity that I considered as a teenager, but I was afraid to have run-ins with the law when I had college scholarships to consider. Now, I'm past all that and would like to get into the scene. However, I'm 32, I don't even know where to find anyone in my local graffiti scene. Where can I find information on graffiti history in my city?
Well, Haze is a very famous writer from the US. To my knowledge he's one of the first to create graffiti apparel and more specifically apparel with his name on it. Up to you, I don't think his clothing line still exists but just heads up, he was a very famous writer.
@@vojtamalek4965 Yeah, look up Eric Haze. He's married to actress Rosie Perez and is still an active artist and designer. His website is erichazenyc.com
For me I write 2 names, neither are in my city but I want to make sure, one is SPUR but I only use it when I do pieces becuase I like the letter shapes, but I 'get up' and tag shit with ALTO havent seen anyone use it and its my hand style so Im safe wherever I go across aus.
I don't care if someone is using my name in another city as long as it ain't in the city I live in. This one cat that follows me on IG has my name but I think he lives in the UK. I noticed that his style changed and looked very very VERY exactly like mine except he added weird lines and nonsense arrows. I told him "this looks exactly like my tag. But hey as long as we all get up right?". Point is don't fucking bite style. Ever. If he lived in the same city as me then I'd handle it a different way. Stop writing my name or get your ass stomped.
You tuff homie.. except you lost me at don’t bite style, how you think graffiti exists? Everything is bitten from somewhere, that’s how styles progress
@@CANControlGRAFFITI yea but you don't have to bite style to progress. It took me years to develop my hand styles and I've been in the game for 9 years going on 10.
Look it just doesn't matter because there is a writer from france called panda but he has a few other names, I choose my name "koef" without knowing it's already his but it doesn't matter because A:were 4 countries away B:that's one of his other names not his main name
I write RESIX a word that I created when I was like 10 I’m 20 now. When one of my parents died when I was 6 years old I lost the ability to feel happiness and I never really liked my real name so I named myself resix I named myself this because when I was 6 that was the last time I was happy so I wish to go back to when I was 6 every day so thus why RESIX and I’m pretty shur nobody els writes it😬🤞🤞🤞🤞
OBANE 666 my first name was BRIX but then i didn’t like how i wrote it so i switched it to PEOR & i just fused letters together so i was thinking that it was coo & no one had that name & i love how i wrote the letters n all then i pass by a local legal wall in bakersfield, california that i usually pass by & it says “PEOR” i even took a pic of it & i’m over here like damn that sucks ass but ima just keep using that damn name. i ain’t trynna switch it up again😂
This is why i liked the old school SA, before the 80's 90's american NY style influence most painters just painted their own names, and even got creative like late 80's we had 3 Michael's known locally as MIK77, MIKE and MICK8T. Then everyone had a fake tag, i stuck with MY birth name. proud of it.
@Sero No shit. They wouldn't write Ghost if they knew the history if the original Ghost. They're just newbie toys that don't know any better. They eventually change their shit to something more personal (or they should).
@@RedZu1 Not really, just ignorance... Of course i know about about the OG Ghost/RIS, but most of you commenting don't seem to realize that Ghost/EA (RUclipsr) has been writing Ghost since the early/mid 90s, it's not like he jumped on youtube, and jacked the name out of nowhere. Ghost isn't really original either, there's atleast one in every big city writing that.
some you should not take other it does not matter but me i took one thats used by alot of people so it does not matter and if your curious search up for tags with the name you want and see if their are any or not
on the west coast of the US we like to use words that arent actually words like my buddies name is Magic but he tags it as MAGQ my other buddy goes by rebel and tags RBULL so if you have a name that you want but its taken just twist the spelling a lil it comes out sick most of the time
mine was created from a mistake and i just went with it. edit- there wasnt really anyone doing graffiti in my town so when i started some others started im just curious if i should try to meet or not
-it's a controversial thing for sure, but real will recognize real and ad long as you've repersented the right way you'll stay blessed. Keep doin your thang bro.
The only time I have a problem with it is when it's extremely obvious that somebody is just copying the name and style of someone else. There's a kid that's been writing Ghost in my area, but it's obvious he's just copying the famous one. And he sucks at it too.
It doesn't matter if you write the same name as someone if you're not in the same city. If I wanted to I could write COPE; matter of fact I already have back in high school. It was a fitting name for me because I hated life and I coped with it every second and day. I didn't write it long but nobody cared. I write VEXOR 1NE but I've went through a lot of names. SEEK, DEMO, CASO, PROPHET, EDIT, the list goes on. VEXOR TSN CREW...
If your going to choose a word that someone else is well known for then you’ll need to be prepared to battle that person to show your worthy of repping that title.

Real writers dont need the internet. end of
Or use the utensils around you to the best of your ability instead of tryna be a real writer
I write RESIX a word that I created when I was like 10 I’m 20 now. When one of my parents died when I was 6 years old I lost the ability to feel happiness and I never really liked my real name so I named myself resix I named myself this because when I was 6 that was the last time I was happy so I wish to go back to when I was 6 every day so thus why RESIX and I’m pretty shur nobody els writes it😬🤞🤞🤞🤞
well thats depressing
Damn, you dont wanne know how many times i changed my name🤣
OBANE 666 my first name was BRIX but then i didn’t like how i wrote it so i switched it to PEOR & i just fused letters together so i was thinking that it was coo & no one had that name & i love how i wrote the letters n all then i pass by a local legal wall in bakersfield, california that i usually pass by & it says “PEOR” i even took a pic of it & i’m over here like damn that sucks ass but ima just keep using that damn name. i ain’t trynna switch it up again😂
Same, I started with star🤢, then idk then idk then idk then idk and now I'm staying with SAAAZO
This is why i liked the old school SA, before the 80's 90's american NY style influence most painters just painted their own names, and even got creative like late 80's we had 3 Michael's known locally as MIK77, MIKE and MICK8T.
Then everyone had a fake tag, i stuck with MY birth name. proud of it.
I DONT RATE THE UK GHOST AS HE WOULDNT WRITE GHOST IF HE KNEW HIS HISTORY.
@Sero No shit. They wouldn't write Ghost if they knew the history if the original Ghost. They're just newbie toys that don't know any better. They eventually change their shit to something more personal (or they should).
@@slixtocsik1162 well said.
@@RedZu1 Not really, just ignorance... Of course i know about about the OG Ghost/RIS, but most of you commenting don't seem to realize that Ghost/EA (RUclipsr) has been writing Ghost since the early/mid 90s, it's not like he jumped on youtube, and jacked the name out of nowhere. Ghost isn't really original either, there's atleast one in every big city writing that.
@@joozemane9894 Theres only one Ghost for me mate. Where can i find Ghost EA Eaely 90s work?? im really intrigued to see??
Weird, I seem to have ended up with a unique name without researching it. Lucky me.
no local names and no kings

Could I do a beginner guide on how to Develop a tag and How do you do the entire alphabet in different fonts
Here are some tags for you guys :)
Snipe
Dank
zev
Snoop
Toy
The lower COLA at 4:11 is in Portugal
some you should not take other it does not matter but me i took one thats used by alot of people so it does not matter and if your curious search up for tags with the name you want and see if their are any or not
I was only able to find 1 person with even a close name
on the west coast of the US we like to use words that arent actually words like my buddies name is Magic but he tags it as MAGQ my other buddy goes by rebel and tags RBULL so if you have a name that you want but its taken just twist the spelling a lil it comes out sick most of the time
should I stop writing spice?
i have the tag CAPZ is it okay or am i copying CAP from nyc? i live in europe btw
There is one artist called NWS in my local city
Seen that in OR
mine was created from a mistake and i just went with it.
edit- there wasnt really anyone doing graffiti in my town so when i started some others started im just curious if i should try to meet or not
-it's a controversial thing for sure, but real will recognize real and ad long as you've repersented the right way you'll stay blessed. Keep doin your thang bro.
I write kezr 7, and I didnt even know who KEZ5 was when I made it, now I've gotten too far to change tags but nobody in my city cares so whatever
The only time I have a problem with it is when it's extremely obvious that somebody is just copying the name and style of someone else. There's a kid that's been writing Ghost in my area, but it's obvious he's just copying the famous one. And he sucks at it too.
Btw is Bigfoot LZA / MNC taken?
That’s my tag
2:57
ohhh that's a flowy ass piece
Like the name STOP... I see that shit on a lot at intersections. Homie is everywhere.
It doesn't matter if you write the same name as someone if you're not in the same city. If I wanted to I could write COPE; matter of fact I already have back in high school. It was a fitting name for me because I hated life and I coped with it every second and day. I didn't write it long but nobody cared. I write VEXOR 1NE but I've went through a lot of names. SEEK, DEMO, CASO, PROPHET, EDIT, the list goes on.
VEXOR TSN CREW...
COLA nn the bottom pic is from Lisbon Portugal!
What about crew names
If your going to choose a word that someone else is well known for then you’ll need to be prepared to battle that person to show your worthy of repping that title.
I don't saw my OWN tag MVCRAH
do u guys know if anybody named selo?
It depends what surfaces you hit, if you take a train bombers name and only do legal permission walls that warrants a cross out.
