Genoint - old hockey nickname, lets jsut say my last name starts with Gian and I smoked weed/joints all the time, even when we played hockey and some guy started call me gian-oint. So I spell it Genoint

Was R3GYN, my personalised number plate, which I bought for the mrs, as it is our sons name (or as close as we could get) REGAN.
Never really thought ad get into things the way I have, so decided to use my own name, and my other personalised plate which I have had for over 20 years, A1FRU, so its now AlFru.
Oh, my name is Al Frew.
Hope this makes sense to someone else hahaha

Eh... sad enough. Used to be really big into online MMORPG's. Played a certain one which shall remain unnamed. Used an undead character and called him Mcoy. Mccoy from Star Trek was nick named Bones, so everyone for a few years called me bones. Had to pick a username and this popped into my head. Of couse some other tool has Bones, so I have Bonesey :p

No shame in this ... forever horde :)

bobkat is my old handle from the bbs days and playing muds ... before we had games with graphics that you could play over tcp/ip

MojoJojo

My old Hotmail account was MojoJojo, which is the arch enemy of the Power Puff Girls (cartoon I watched with the kids). Soon MojoJojo seemed to be taken everywhere so I switched to GogoJoJo, which then became difficult to find available....so I switched to GogogoJojojo which is rarely taken anywhere. (Attached pic, of the real MojoJojo)

Well this is mine..

My name is a play on my real name and the dreaded weed and inspired from the song by Rolf Harris called - Nick Teen And Al K. Hall

Well, I never gargled, I never gambled,
I never smoked at all.
Until I met my two good amigos,
Nick Teen and Al K. Hall.

SSTEEL for Stainless Steel.

Back in the day when I was restoring cars back in the UK, on of my 4 garages was packed with Stainless Steel shelving, and racking, and I got the nickname thereafter :D

Stuck to me when as a teenager seven of my best friends and I bought a house and turned it into a collective. When at the age of 20 I was employed as a Marketing Manager of a largish corporation and simultaneously started studying philosophy one of the guys (succesfully) put forth the argument that I had submitted into conformity....

It kinda stuck.

KO are my initials. My classic mustang is a 1967. User names would not allow special characters, so KO12" was not available... It was my first choice...

I guess i have been around here long enough to begin unleashing my sense of humor...

It's a bow stroke, for string players. Take your "arco" and bounce-draw it on the string...easier done than described. Cheers!
