Maybe roid_(roid) would be better. There are two other characters, roidhfox and roidhcheetah.

Maybe going by their patreon handle then could be better? roid87 and roid_(roid87)?

-1 because of ambiguity. I more often see "roid" referring to steroids.

roid_(artist) would be better.

The artist uses the name roidelcoco on their Linktree and Twitch accounts. That might be their preferred name.

That said, it’s pretty unlikely that someone will accidentally tag an artist named "roid" instead of "steroids". I don’t really care which name we go with, as long as we pick something.

I don’t think I really have a problem with roid_(character) either. Roidhfox and Roidhcheetah seem to be named "Roidh", not Roid, so technically not ambiguous. Maybe still better to avoid it for future-proofing, though.

I think the only thing I really want here is for the artist tag to match the character suffix. I’ll go with whichever name Mairo picks since he made the request.

Technically speaking even the old name ThePluto could mean a lot of things from media, characters and even planet.
They did also previously use ThePluto87 and ThePlutoNSFW, but obviously NSFW suffix isn't usually part of the name, hence why 87 end would be similar to their previous name.
However with that one they only seem to use it on Patreon handle and the name there is also just ROID.

At that point I guess roidelcoco is the best approach and roid_(roidelcoco) for character.
As long as ThePluto is aliased as they have transitioned away from that name everywhere like mentioned.
