What does your name (Handle) mean?

[Dwight Hottle]

I guess you got mine figured out.  ;D

[Copen1822]

Copenhagen Long cut, born in 1822 ;D

[farmpond1]

Farmpond1-because there is nowhere in the world I'd rather fish than a secluded farmpond where there's no one around for miles, the red wing blackbird sing their silver notes, and the fish are always hungry.

And because it's the first name I could think of.

[Zel]

Last 3 letters of my name... and have allways been addicted to the ellipsis.

[bassman31783]

"bassman" is for my love for playing the "bass" guitar & catching "bass."

[DINK WHISPERER]

I have unexplained powers over all the dinks...........................

[Red]

Well mine was originally "TheRedTorpedo"  Which is what I called my first boat.  It was like a 1952 14' v-hull.  My dad got it for me, it had a dent in the side and a hole in the bottom.  He pounded out the dent, patched the hole, painted it red and put on a 7.5 hp merc, and The Red Torpedo was born.  But some forum deal said I couldn't have my screen name the same as login name so I just shortened it to "Red", which means nothing really.  My name is Cliff (Clifford), talk about "hearing it all your life", Clifford the Big Red Dog anyone?   ;D  Anyway I will say one thing, The Red Torpedo didn't go fast and it wasn't pretty, but it sure did catch alot of smallmouth bass!!

[ArcticCat500]

Do you romp around and chainsaw things? LOL

lol, naaa....I was getting ready to cut some new trails out back,   but the saw is on there more often then not

[Brute]

I got the nickname Brutus way back in high school.

They just call me Brute for  short.

[Titleman]

I do research on real estate titles for insurance purposes. I go to different courthouses and search the public records for title evidence so as to issue title insurance policies. I've been in the Title Insurance industry for more than 36 years.

I surely didn't intend for my username (handle) to imply my level of fishing. Believe me, I'm certainly no where near as good a bass fisherman as that would take. Heck, I've never even entered a tournament and don't belong to any clubs either. I fish with friends and wife occassionally but, most of the time alone. Quite peaceful and thoroughly relaxing.

I like this thread.  

[srv1990]

SRV1990... The SRV is for Stevie Ray Vaughan and 1990 is the year he perished in the helicopter crash after the 2nd of two concerts at the Alpine Valley Music Theatre in Wisconsin.  I was fortunate enough to see the first show that weekend, heard the terrible news Monday morning.

[Pantera61]

Pantera61= One of my Evergreen rods, the Pantera and the year I was born

[SmokeRise1]

Smoke Rise is the lake community where I live and do most of my fishing. Since I'm the first from here to join BR, I threw a 1 on the end. I'll think of something better next time...

[KYntucky Warmouth]

Not quite sure where BigRick came from, it's been my nickname since sometime in college. Rick isn't even part of my name, Adam Paul. As for the RickRolled part, well, "Never Gonna Give You Up" is an awesome song and I used to love getting RickRolled.

[TrippyJai]

Trippy was a nick name that was given to me by these 2 guys when I was in grade 7. I was a new kid to that elementry school at that time because I've just moved into a new home. Everyone started calling me it and it went on through high school and even now, my friends refer to me as Trips or Trippy.

I am chinese so Jai means boy... sort of like Johnny boy in english or in japanese they say son... as in daniel-son from the karate kid.

There you go. My name and its probably the first time I've explained it and to people I don't know

Btw, Jai is not pronouned Jay, although people who don't know will say it like that.

[OIFBasser]

OIF because at the time I signed up, I had just got home from a deployment to Iraq. Basser, because I like to fish for bass

[Fishing Rhino]

I make fiberglass race car bodies, and the name of my company is Rhino Hide, indicating tough and durable.

So I incorporate it into my screen name to fit the forum.
