    Mine is pretty blatant… I used to not give two hoots but then I grew up a little bit but kept my username because I’m not trying to hide from anyone and often bumped into people on different forums who then instantly knew it was me…

    Its also a pretty decent record…

    It seemed like a good idea at the time (clearly I was right – I have NO idea!)

    I keep meaning to change it as it could mean other things but somehow I have become attached to the name now…

    Sorry TSY 😳

    Umm, I should make up an exciting story. But really it’s an anagram of my name.

    Nickname at primary school was Cat because I was told I look like a cat by a girl that used to pinch me. It stuck, typed Cat as a player name on a computer game at a friends house, when I escaped the enemy it said Catflees, so it’s been cat or Catflees since then.

    Yossarian: Is Orr crazy?
    Dr. ‘Doc’ Daneeka: Of course he is. He has to be crazy to keep flying after all his close calls he’s had.
    Yossarian: Why can’t you ground him?
    Dr. ‘Doc’ Daneeka: I can, but first he has to ask me.
    Yossarian: That’s all he’s gotta do to be grounded?
    Dr. ‘Doc’ Daneeka: That’s all.
    Yossarian: Then you can ground him?
    Dr. ‘Doc’ Daneeka: No. Then I cannot ground him.
    Yossarian: Aah!
    Dr. ‘Doc’ Daneeka: There’s a CATCH?
    Yossarian: A catch?
    Dr. ‘Doc’ Daneeka: Sure. Catch-22. Anyone who wants to get out of combat isn’t really crazy, so I can’t ground him.
    Yossarian: Ok, let me see if I’ve got this straight. In order to be grounded, I’ve got to be crazy. And I must be crazy to keep flying. But if I ask to be grounded, that means I’m not crazy anymore, and I have to keep flying.
    Dr. ‘Doc’ Daneeka: You got it, that’s Catch-22.
    Yossarian: Whoo… That’s some catch, that Catch-22.
    Dr. ‘Doc’ Daneeka: It’s the best there is.

    Started seeing a chap who was nicknamed Toasty. His mates started referring to me as ‘Missus Toast’, and when I started playing World of Warcraft I took that name for my first character. Ended up sticking with it, with the occasional ‘Mrs’ variation after getting married.

    My high school nickname and original online nickname Riggers was based on my surname, but it did get a bit confusing because my brother got called it as well by his mates, as does my nephew.

    Could be worse, I’ve got one mate whose nickname is ‘Peebz’, because fifteen years ago, when walking home, someone said, “What’s that squeaking noise?”. It was his shoes, but what he actually said was, “It’s the sound of my plastic bollocks rubbing together”. Henceforth he was known as Plastic Bollocks, or PB, or Peebs.

    Started and ran an F1 site of a similar name back in the mid-90s. Did a load of stuff online under that name and when I bought a domain name for personal use, atlas was not available so it morphed to atlaz. Boring story.
