What’s Up with Your Screen Name

[redfishbluefish]

I’ve recently got a kick out of a couple screen names I’ve seen and got me wondering of how or why you picked that name. Some are straight forward (I think) but others are a mystery. So let’s hear some stories about how you picked your name. I’ll start with mine….

I didn’t pick my screen name, our local fish club picked it! My adult son first started in saltwater and joined a local club. He invited me to a meeting, and his screen name was OneFishTwoFish. I think you see where I’m going with this. When I showed up, the host of the meeting turned to me and said, “You must be RedFishBlueFish.” And so I was!


So what's your story?

 

[BeltedCoyote]

It’s my psn name. I didn’t want to go with the standard “xxx_deathlord3000_xxx”

so I thought. What’s a random animal? Coyote

what would make said animal absurd? A belt!

and thus I am BeltedCoyote

I'm not clever enough to think of a good screen name lol. So went with my name and birth year.

Mine came from my younger line cook days, when I'd chase the chef around to ask questions. Once I made sous he gave me the name Chef Where'd you go and introduced me as such.

I would’ve thought you had a supercharged mustang as they refer to some as coyotes and well, the belt would be the supercharger

I am a lab tech (hence the Beaker part) and my first two initials are R & K, which are the 18th and 11th letters in the alphabet. Not SUPER original, but it does the job I suppose ‍

Mine is the name of my dead dog (he died last year, he was 20). He was a shaky, quivering, tremoring little chihuahua.
