Try to think of something different and that's an actual word or name. Be a little orginal. Instead of 'Killer', try 'Baby Killer' or 'Eviscerator' or 'Ragnarok'.
Colors
Once you've got your name, you can color it. You can choose from 8 colors,
but one of them is black, which is just plain annoying for every other
player to look at. You can add a color to your name by typing ^
followed by a number from 0 to 7. If you type it in from the menus or
console in QIII, typing ^ followed by a number removes both
characters, but ensuing characters are in the chosen color.
If you do use a color, finish your name with ^7 to return
to white. Most places in Quake III append this for you, but some places
may not. If you don't do it, then some of the writing after your name
may be the same color as the last portion of your name.

Baby Killer [CI] (where CI = Clan Initials)
