Watch as someone names themselves the bell character, “^G” (ASCII code 7) [1]
When they meet people, they tell them their name is unpronounceable, it’s the sound of a PC speaker from the late 20th century, but you can call them by their preferred nickname “beep”.
In paper and online forms they are probably forced to go by the name “BEL”.
