AB - This study attempts to give a review of social media users’ choice of a particularname for the sake of signaling identity cues and interaction with the others. The social media names could be classified into different categories such astraditional/cultural anthroponyms, nicknames and fictitious IDs etc. Out of thesecategories, it is the phenomenon of choice and construction of fictitious socialmedia IDs by Pakistani social media users which has been reviewed and scrutinizedin this particular article. This study examined fictitious IDs of Pakistani socialmedia users from Critical Discourse Analysis and System Functional Linguisticsperspectives and demonstrates how nationalistic, ethnic and religious identitiesare negotiated, constructed, deconstructed and reconstructed by the social mediausers through a particular ID choice.
