Anyone who has seen my photo has no problem figuring out where mine comes from....and on some sites I go by 'grampedstl'...easy...I'm a Grampa from St. Louis.

[Russ C]

Russ is short for Russell and C is the first letter of my last name. 

[Coffeepot]

A favorite beverage container.

[Rapid Roger]

My name is Roger and I used to race "Enduro Go Karts" (Yea the ones that you lay down on and drive 80-100 MPH on.) I raced for about 6 years and was very slow at first but as I got better and started winning races people started my nick name of "Rapid Roger" and it just stuck. Most people just call me "Rog" these days.
Now that I'm into wood working for a hobby, several people have mentioned how fast I get my projects done. Not that they are all that good but, I am fairly quick.
Concentration is the key to speed.

Rog

[jeff44]

The Navy could not pronounce the last name as it is spelled, they always use the last name to call you, so they shortened it to "jeff".  Most of my friends use that name but my sister calls me my given name, Bill. The "44" is for the year I was born.

[cherie]

I can't remember where mine came from.

Bill

Your mom?  (hehehehe)

[flint hills]

Mine is from the area of Kansas I am from. The 'Flint Hills'
   Joe

[BilltheDiver]

Pretty self explanatory.  I used to do a lot of scuba and spearfishing and used this name on those forums.  Never saw a need to change it even though I haven't been down in a few years.  I will likely go again!

[Proxprof]

Proxxon ist the brand from my scroll saw. ==> Prox
Why I came with prof I don't remember (short for Professor/ Professional?)
But I liked the combination from these two, so Proxprof was born.
I used this name the first time on a german site to order Patterns for X-masdecoration and I don't want to have to remember too much nicknames.

[TripleB]

Mine is just my initials, BBB, At work they used to call me TripleB or 3B, so I still use it.

[Bill P]

Your mom?  (hehehehe)

I was wondering if anyone caught that.

So, 3B, when you were trying to decide on a name, do you ask, "3-B, or not 3-B? That is the question."

And now y'all know why I don't post much, my humor leaves too much to be desired.

Just Bill.

[dgman]

Hey Bill, I for one enjoy your humor and miss you when your not around! Come back often and throw us some Korn!

[cdrover(Clyde)]

My nephew has a small construction company the nams is " Triple B Builders".

Bill with my memory I would have asked. " 3-B or not 3-B, What was the question?

[TripleB]

3B or not 3B? I don"t know ask Bill P! Yes Dan more Korn! Had to get in the fun. And CD Let me remind you that with a name like "Triple B Builders" your nephews company is assured to rise!

Bob, TripleB or is it 3B?

[Judy Hunter]

I got mine the same place Bill got his (birth certificate) but I had to change Eli to Hunter about 50 yrs ago. I guess I should have come up with something a bit more clever but was so nervouse joining it was the best I could come up with that I wouldn't forget
