Where does your user name come from?


Hi everyone,
I'm curious to know what's the story behind your user name (or Alias)... There are a bunch of people that use their name (of parts of it) like myself, Albert Porter, GerryM5, Esoler...

But where does user name like Cornfedboy, Garfish, Calloway, Tireguy, SwampWalker (and many many others) come from? Any story behind?

Just curious

How do you think I feel on Ebay when I get a praise feedback from a sell and the seller ends by saying, " Thanks, Dorkbrains"
Thanks for the praise, Gunbei. I just got an e-mail from another Ebayer with username nutcase2. All it said was," Dorkbrains,cool name".
I am actually using my first name. I'm the third in our family and figured no one else has this name so go ahead and flaunt it.I go under the username "Dorkbrains" in Ebay.I tried Sherod and someone else was using it.Go figure.I was tired that night and tried some of my favorite nicknames to find they were all being used so I went with "dorkbrains" out of frustration.Needless to say, growing up with a name like Sherod,for a boy, that was tough in a small, "red-neck" town.I once told my parents they should have named me Sue...
I would feel more comfortable calling you Mr. Poobah. Being a peasant I have learned to respect Aristocracy.
