I played Medea in high school. I really liked the whole idea of vehement protection of self and passions. It worked for me.
As a 16 year old.
I’m now 21. I’m an entirely different person. Its time for a new face, so to speak.
But I’m coming up blank. I like borrowing from classical literature. I’m currently majoring in Chemical Engineering and Philosophy, but I like to focus on ethics. Any thoughts? Plato’s Dominatrix just doesn’t quite have the ring I’m looking for. Though it will be the next great chick band, just you wait.
No suggestions - but “Medea’s Child” always brought the image of the dead body with it’s throat slit tied to the back of the chariot and flapping in the wind. Which I thought was an odd thing to name yourself after.
Is there a reason why you keep defining yourself in terms of others (Medea’s Child, Plato’s Dominatrix)? Your post is full of wonderful user names. Here are a few:

No, really, don’t. Please? Did I ask nicely enough yet?
I like your name. Really, I do. Now, of course, you gotta be comfy with your own name, but my third-party-objective opinion is that I think it’s purty neet.
I like the name “Medea’s Child.” Nice and straightforward, but then it whacks you a few seconds later after you think about it.
It’s your name, though. Change it if you like.
I don’t know what you consider “classical literature,” but if you’re willing to extend that to basically any artistic discipline, I’ll suggest a reference to David Cronenberg, probably one of the twenty most important filmmakers working today. Specifically, I was thinking just a couple of weeks ago that if I were to choose a new name, I’d go with a variant of “Brundlefly.” Choose a different animal, perhaps – “Brundlecat” would be cutesy, “Brundleshark” less so.
If you want to stick with true literature, then maybe a pun from a Shakespearean name. Say, “Portia Ragtop.”
Congratulations on such a wonderful epiphany. You ain’t seen nothin’ yet! It’s your name, so you should pick it, especially since you seem to need it to feel right. [sup]Good luck[/sup]
Tortilla Smile - If you like Mexican food. Ideas Wild - If you consider yourself creative. Diarrhea Pile - If you wanna gross people out. Pizzeria Mild - If you don’t like your pie spicy.
Well if she feels it no longer fits her then I see no reason not to change it. Although I do prefer people’s names to stay constant as well. But since I’m on my third I really can’t complain.
Boy philosophy is just filled with names. I don’t really understand a whole lot of them though. And the ones I do understand don’t appeal to me at all. So I’ll suggest a name from one of my favorite pieces of classical literature. We have no Shahrazad. Although the tales themselves are filled with great names.
Now this one I highly doubt you’d want by I just thought it should be known that we need more Bort usernames.
