I see a lot of funky user names floating around here. I thought I would see if anyone was interested in sharing how it came to be.

Mine is one that I have used on several online games, the first time was a game called Monster Hunter. The spelling might be off, but Jeger simply means Hunter in german and has nothing to do with jagermeister. So if you are ever playing a game online and you run into someone that goes by Jeger it might be me. Be nice and dont shoot me :lol:

Back several years ago when I got my first internet capable computer with free trial for AOL I couldn't come up with a screen name that made sense. Everything I wanted was taken. Goglio704 is a combination of the name of a piece of equipment I was responsible for and my radio call number. :roll: I've never had trouble with it already being taken though. :wink:

Mine are my license plates that I have had since high school, circa 1991 or so. Everyone was coming up with weird personalized tags at the time that were so abbreviated you couldn't read them and everyone kept guessing what each other's meant. I went another way and just picked something that was an actual name spelled correctly, but no one could figure out what it meant. I never told anyone until someone finally researched it on the net and found out it came from an obscure J.R.R. Tolkien book. Used it for my AOL screenname back when I was on that POS and then it became my online identity, so to speak. If you Google my name now all you get is all the various forums I post on, my websites and some German guy who, oddly enough, uses the same name. Oh, and eventually you can find the Tolkien stuff too.

OK,

If you haven't seen my picture on the lifetime section, or the Slade KY or Livingston KY trip pictures, moose is a good description. I sometimes run into stuff (and try not to break it), and I'm good with brute force. So my wife came up with the nickname back in '88, and I've used it ever since.

It's her jeep, so it's only fair that she choose the name. I usually go by TorinoTony because my first car was a 68 Torino and it stuck with me. I also bought an 86 MR2 for a dd. Its pretty ugly right now so I use Wrinkledmr2 on the Toyota sites.

Just incase anybody cares. 1968 Ford Torino GT Fastback. Still no paint. It is cursed to never have paint!

Zeero......the common term for squaring away your firearms sights is to "Zero" the weapon.

I served in the military as an Infantry soldier and later became Sniper qualified....all my buddies that remained infantry called me Zero because I was always helping them out with squaring away their rifles.....and not to mention I had a Zero percent chance of missing anything I aimed at. ;) :lol: :roll:

Add an extra "E" and it makes Zeero....just a cooler spin off of the name.

Well, I have had many internet persona's over the last several years.
rckcrlr=plate on the Bronco
Rockteeth=Because I knocked 2 teeth out with a driveshaft at a UROC/ARCA event.
Redspoon=It's a Cowboymouth thing....you wouldn't understand
Clem/clm= Just cus
But mostly, lately I have been changing most of them to just the plain old last name, less confusing when I actually meet up with people from all the forums.
So there it is Milner is just my name. :D

DZL_LOU = Diesel Lou (Vanity License Plates). Lou is my real name. Somehow the names Diesel and Lou fit each other. What other vehicle would you think of besides a Diesel for a guy named Lou to drive?

Well mine was named after my first Jeep, a 2005 Liberty Rocky Mountain Edition, that is sadly now gone. I totalled it back in May and now have a 2006 KJ Sport 4x4...my other handle is 2006KJSPORT4x4, so if the Mods can change my current one to that COOL...but it don't matter

Starcrwzr came from my PT Cruiser days. It was my license plate on my 2002 PT, a STAR symbol (available in California) followed by CRWZR. It had several meanings, Star Cruiser, like in Star Wars, Star Cruiser, for me, I'm heavily into amateur astronomy and Star Cruiser because I enjoy reading SciFi. Even though the PT is gone now, I still keep the name, for it's one of my astronomy websites http://www.starcrwzr.com.
