OK, How did you come up with your name

Flyin_Paulie
I don't know what kind of response to expect but I thought this thread could be a relief from the P & R threads that seem to be in vogue.
It's simple--when you dad to come up with a user name on Gunbroker, did you come up with something creative or something that describes you in some way?
As an example, My name is Paul and I like to fly; hence, Flyin_Paulie.
Well, let's see what happens now.[:)]

  • CapnMidnight
    I was a trucker for years, in 1972 I had a brand new Peterbuilt show truck that was brown in color, my young son said it was the same color as Ovalteen. When I was a kid Ovalteen sponsered Captain Midnight on the radio, so with C Bs being new where I live and I being in need of an original "handel", I became CapnMidnight, faster than a speeding bullet, and able to leap tall waitres's in a single bound. Now you know the rest of the story.

  • Blade Slinger
    Just a curve ball for profilers to think about, (Sling Blade) no connection to movie, none what so ever, and kind of funny for a yankee.
    I have had a knife of some sorts in my hands for most of my life, made them out of files or anything that might work as a knife, hence the blade reference.The sling represents my ability to throw a knife or any other tool, ax,ice pick, screw driver or pointed piece of anything sharp.
    I have also a collection and and a love for sharp objects.

    That's ironic.
    I caught a bad case of mateomasfeo in the Phillipines and ended up with Stinkfoot.

    Boy this is really lame, we get one of these "how did you get your name?" threads about once a month seems like. Then all the same lame named posters gotta bore us with...

    [:I]Uh, sorry, I guess I was just jonsing for a good fight after the last few days. Anyone want to discuss opinions on religion?[:0]

    Anyway, I was gonna be whiteclouder, but the name was already taken, and its origins not so obvious, could be whiteclouds from a front stuffer, but could just be a dreamy, romantic, poetic writer sort living in big sky country and prone to watching the clouds go by.
