|
|
Some members forum names are self explanatory (MrMamod, Whistleman, OzSteamDemon ), some are real names, and some are not (belugawhaleman, The Denying Dutchman).
I chose logoman because it describes my job as a logo designer.
Care to explain yours? _________________ miles

I'm rather fond of good beef at times but the cattle connection had nothing to do with the choice. It's one of my middle names. The other, as it happens, isn't Aberdeen  |

Some years back I built a 1946U flat head 74 cubic inch Harley out of pieces. It was my daily rider and many times my only transportation for a couple of years. I use 46u on all most all the forums I go to and those I do not it still has the 46u in it. Like my user name for YouTube is Jeff46u.

Scorpion2nz
well the first time I needed a username it was on TradeMe
so Scorpion2
Scorpion = well birth sign and I have been known to have a bite to my tongue but it was taken so just added 2
then on ebay it was taken (scorpion2) so just added NZ
so consequently all forums are now Scorpion2nz
and TradeMe is still Scorpion2 as can not change username there |

IndianaRog had it's origins in the fact I live in Indiana and my name is Rog...I also have a fondness for Indiana Jones movies, so it seemed a good fit !!!
I tried out for the part in Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom but didn't quite make it. So I went my own way and:
"IndianaRog and the Temple of Steam" was born.

I just sort of identify with the Beluga whale.
With my receding hairline and fair complexion
I resemble one.
