Whats up with that User Name!?!?

Or...
How did you come up with yours? 
Mine was easy...
Mavel Comics Captian Marvel was one of my favorite characters growing up.....till they gave him cancer and he died anyway...
He was a Kree...so....just added boy to the end of that cause I never really grew up.
How or Why did you come up with yours?
Dont think there is a thread like this...so figured I would start one.

My initials are D.R.T., so making that into "DiRT" is kinda obvious...
Although, some places won't let you use a name that's less than 6 characters, so I often use "dirtmound"

DC's Deadman is a favorite comic character of mine/When I was a kid I remember going to sleep at night listening to a record of Deadmans Curve by Jan and Dean over and over again/I swear Undertaker stole my nickname... I say he and I go for a Hell in a Cell for the nick. 
The 2099 I reckon i'd have liked to see a Deadman comic hit the Marvel Universe in the 90's? I dunno why I picked the number other than Deadman was probablly taken already

Well........I really liked slipknot when I was younger(still do) and liked how the (sic) looked on one of their albums. Well after reading what it really meant(it signafied something was supposed to be incorrect or unusual), which really hit the nail on the head with who I am. Soooooo.....somebody got drunk(we wont mention names to protect the innocent) and got (sic) tattooed on the back of his neck. So when people see this on the back of your neck, they tend to call ya by it, so it just became my handle. I'll have to add a pic when I can access my photobucket. lol
Update: Another reason to quit drinking. lol

I'm a Transformers fan... so... I went with the unimaginative screen name of TFfan. Nothing more to it, really.

For years and years, my handle was always Mandalorian30. That, of course, is because I am a big Star Wars fan and of course have always been a mark for Boba Fett, who wears Mandalorian armor. The 30 just comes in becuase it was always my number when I played baseball, etc.
The name switched to Pixel Dan after I started From Pixels to Plastic. Ito from RetrowareTV.com started referring to me as Pixel Dan when we were all chatting over e-mail, and the name kind of stuck after that. I realized that it had a much better ring to it than saying "I'm Mandalorian30!" in all of my videos.

It was my wrestling name. Basically I was a JoBBeR. I would purposely lose a lot. But had fun doing it. Just seemed fitting.

I like it, it has become what I am used to. though it is slowing down alot as I slowly lose contact with people from my past as I call myself Ryan in my day to day life.
