As I look at various screen names, I try and guess what they mean. I use to do the same with license plates in California as some of them were pretty creative. Some of the names I've seen have me totally stumped so I would like to get some clarification to what your names mean. I'll start with my very own.

In college (the first time I went), I was a skirt chaser (that will be no news to Teresa

). I couldn't get enough of women. I once tried to holla' at a sista' from a sorority who told me that I could not talk to her unless I was a member of her brother fraternity, or was a little brother to her sorority. I had seen the big brothers pledging and that did not look like fun so I decided to go the little brother route.

When you pledge, they give you a special shirt that you had to wear everyday with your pledge name on it. The girls got to choose the pledge name you were stuck with. At 18 years old, I must admit that I had quite the body and the girls took one look at my butt and viola! Junkman was born (they said I had a lot of junk in my trunk). The 2008 is my Marine boot camp platoon number. Combine the two and you get "Junkman2008".

So that's mine, what is yours?

When I had my 02 ZO6 I named her " The Black One " so the name passed on to the 08 ZO6.

I'm sure AJ has another name for me....

Waco - as in "The Waco Kid" as in Blazing Saddles. That's pretty much it.

raidmagic · 12-03-2009, 05:38 AM

My two favorite sports teams. The Oakland Raiders and the Orlando Magic.

Years ago when I first got the internet, and to be honest my first computer

, we signed onto AOL and I had to come up with a screen name. I went through every Raiders/Magic name I could come up with then my wife combined the two and here I am. The cool part is I've every place I sign up too it's available.

cobra_4 · 12-03-2009, 05:58 AM

Cobra because at the time that I started using this SN I had an 03 Cobra(well still have one just a different one) and the number 4 because I am/was a huge wrestling fan, well 80's/90's pro wrestling fan anyway and I am a huge fan of Ric Flair and the Four Horsemen so that is where the four comes from.

Junkman2008 · 12-03-2009, 06:15 AM

Now this is cool! I would have never thought of some of these, especially Raid and Sparky's. Kewl!

Phantom01 · 12-03-2009, 06:17 AM

My first screen name I tried was Phantom Wood and it got banned in less then 6 hours. Never did understand why especially since I didn't even post with that name (that I recall). Wood is my last name. I got Phantom as a call sign in the Air Force cause I had a knack of disappearing and reappearing at will it seemed. 01 is the year I graduated High School and Basic Training. So now I just put PHNTM and the year of my vette on my license plates. So on my GS is PHNTM 10

midnite902 · 12-03-2009, 06:27 AM

Mid Nights - Slang for illegal street races for money.
90266 - the Zip Code for Manhattan Beach Ca.

"Here comes the mid-night man from 902"

"Here comes midnite902"

I had to create an e-mail to work some auto events.
Midnite902 it is.

matchframe · 12-03-2009, 06:30 AM

Before my career shifted gears, I use to edit broadcast tv programs. There is an edit term called matchframe. I had worked for an ad agency in the mid 80s which had set up one of the first intranet networks that I had seen. They had us decide what our email address would be so I chose matchframe. All of us editors there chose an editing term and that sort of carried over to being my online identity from then on.

Now I rarely edit video anymore so it is sort of ironic that I still use that term.
