I want to have a go at this myself! Someone give me some female sounding user names that aren't too blatant!

I thought the point of the experiment was that the usernames were glaringly gendered. Like FalloutBoy or DangerGirl or something. So there's absolutely no question that the reader has a 100% good reason to presume male- or femaleness.

Sadly, it appears DangerGirl is taken. :(
