Xbox Live question

Right, I've just got my 360 online and got a gamertag. This means there are 2 profiles under 2 seperate names on my hard drive. Can I now not play with my original profile on Xbox live? My original profile name was my Christian name, and obviously meant I couldn't have this as a tag, as it is a popular name.

HELP!!!!! :eek:

Thanks chaps.

Does this mean when I get round to creating a gamertag the simplest thing to do is just go for something pretty unique straight out on the console which should also port (hopefully) to online as well?

If you dont have a console you can go on Xbox.com now and try and grab a name, As long as the first time connect to live you "recover your gamer tag" you will be ok BUT you cant take any achevents you have earned already to that gamer tag.

I Logged mine before release and the day i got round to getting my 360 i logged on and recovered my profile before playing any games.
