I would find it more convenient to never use real name so as to not make any involuntary slips while live.

>> No.12728358

>>12728297
If they are near computers that have streaming software, or on discord yes. (Voices are lax).
We know this because of the mistake go lives, mistake do not end streams, and mistake people sit in discord.
It would be something that corporate training drills into them really quickly in the onboarding process.

"Stage name". Gee you make them sound like they are strippers.

Use a name long enough, it sticks as part of the identity. So it is possible. But then some would make it a point to keep things a secret. It just depends on who.

My friend group actually started using real names. We thought it was weird that we all talked about our personal lives and knew each other's name for years but kept adressing each other by names we made when we were middle schoolers. There was some pushback, but that just made it more fun

Depends on how much context your doxx has. If you just drop a name, on its own it really doesnt mean much.

This. Also jannies don't necessarily know if a particular doxx is true or not so probably anything that seems like it could be legit would get the hammer but if you post a picture of say avril lavine and claim its Irys face reveal you will probably be fine because its obviously not to be taken seriously.

>>12728819
Some people say it was revenge for a previous "doxx" of a streamer personality but dropping someones real name as revenge for an obscure reference only dedicated fans who already knew the truth anyways would get seems a bit excessive.

Another ratt was that this was a planned exchange to selfdoxx without angering management so that if and when they graduate their new fans would know where to find them but that seems a bit too machiavellian for the likes of those two boneheads.

One time Polka joined the same discord channel as Nene when she didn't know she was streaming and still called her Nene. That may just be JP professionalism or maybe it was just entirely scripted but there you go.

You flipped them. Polka was in the work channel, Nene came in and called her "Omarun" in a more relaxed voice.
But otherwise accurate.

Crossick is a fun Niji example, since you can never trust Tomoe as she has already slipped more than once but it would be weird to call your irl lover by their Vtuber name they settled on always using nicknames when off-stream, things like "honey" (Yes, Tomoe is actually Nina) that don't give away anything about their real name.

If you use the character names in private you condition yourself to not accidentally use someone's real name on stream. It's just common sense.

This makes me think how weird it would be to have my online friends use my real name, even the ones I've met and meet with often
Like it's not even about distance, some of those dudes are closer to me than any IRL friends, but it'd feel so wrong if they started calling me by my first name

Is extremely common for people in internet to using nicknames even when they meet irl, you will notice that even with Youtubers, is not a matter if is mandatory to do this, it's just being used to a nick instead the real name

Circumstances surely dictate. They seem to use their Holo names when talking to one another on discord. In this little clip, Polka accidentally had Nene's personal discord call on a streaming audio. But Nene was calling Polka a cutesie "Omarun", rather than whatever her personal name is.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h162TH-2RMw

So, I'd guess most would stick to their Holo names, when they are doing Holo-stuff. Especially in discord, for the reason above!

Obviously, when some might be out in public together, they'll obviously not be using their Holo names. But I'd guess for those who aren't much familiar with one another personally, they might rarely think or know of their Holo-mates personal names at all.

>> No.12748564

>>12728819
Neither, they are not friends. She didn't know that it was her real name and just throughout a random girl's name. They know nothing of eachother beyond hololive, The context of that wasn't even a slip of the tongue.

Obviously. They don't want "Oh hey alex" slipping out.

I think it depends, early gens probably call them by their holo names because they didn't meet until debuts, whereas newer gens hang out before debuts more so they know each other more outside of hololive

obviously they exclusively refer to each other by initials in some weird durarara-esque chatroom only

>> No.12749230

When they weren't vtubers they referred to their streamer friends by their stream name. Because that's what they know them by.
The only people who have a hypothetical problem with calling them by one name or another are people that knew each other well before Vtubing or close enough friends IRL that they use their real names.
I'm sure most of Hololive isn't close enough to each other to use their non-vtuber names. Do you think Botan for example knows Ayame by anything other than Ayame?

I think it depends of:

>Their closeness
>Where are they
>Personal preference

Ex. If they're in the street there's no way they're using their streamrs name but that doesn't mean they won't call the other "senpai" or "A-chan" "B-chan" etc.

Second, obv their closeness, I can't imagine Botan knowing Aqua, Shion most probably knows tho so there's that.

Preference, if you have ever had an online friend you probably know you get used to it and it may stick around even when meeting irl and knowing their name or any other name they go by, if your friend doesn't mind then you may find youself calling you name named "Josh" as "Spike" if that's his online name.

The holos probably have a combination of these three and I can still imagine Botan's or Polka's old streamer friends calling them their old nicknames regardless of their irl names or their new personas.

that's probably just how they're used to referring to each other, you put Polka and Roberu in the same call they'll very likely have the opposite issue.

What do you think Miko and Peko call each other? Real names, old names or holo names? Do you think Peko still thinks of Aqua as Aqua or as her old name?
