What does your name/avatar mean?

**DTrain** · 23rd February 08, 05:27 PM

My name is an old college nickname derived from my first initial, D. Why DTrain? I don't exactly know. I was reallly into intramural football and once had my right ear severely ripped during a "friendly" tackle game. I like to think I "charged like a train"

My avatar periodically changes but currently Highway 61 marker that runs through Mississippi, my home state, the Blues Highway, the mother of rock and roll, the stuff of legend and Bob Dylan tunes. I grew up along Highway 61 and appreciate its mojo.

I take my name from one of the persona's of the wrestler Mick Foley, When he first started out he went by the name of Cactus Jack, He was wicked mean and evil and have always liked that character. My avatar is that of Clan Doyle, I married into a Doyle family and have always liked that Clan Badge.

Wow, Larry...that was truly boring! LOL!

As for mine....
I am a Gerard Butler fan, that's about it.
Ok so that was boring too. That's why Cactus Jack and I get along.

My handle is the root word of my first name. Trevor.
The pic, I dunno. It's me in a kilt stating that I am a proud Euro descendant. Canada is great, but I love my roots where they are, cause they make me who I am to some degree....some degree.

**Chef** · 23rd February 08, 07:57 PM

Well lets see, I chose mine because...let's see I think I remember...why did I ...oh yeah I'm a chef.

That and it was easy to remeber being only four letters.

As for the avatar, well as you can see by the signature line I was told I was a "Kilt Snob". Instead of being insulted I decided to embrace it. Lord Snooty was a character from the Beano comic when I was young and it seemed appropriate. I'm still looking for a pic of him in a kilt.

Ah-ha! I knew he looked familiar but couldn't place where I'd seen him (when young as well)

**Dukeof Kircaldy** · 23rd February 08, 08:18 PM

Duke of Kircaldy came from the Beatles' "Cry, Baby, Cry"

The duchess of Kirkcaldy always smiling
And arriving late for tea.
The duke was having problems
With a message at the local bird and bee.

It's an interesting title to take and it's Scottish. I've always wanted to be the Duke of Kircaldy anyway. After all, I can't be Kildonan. On the other hand, Bannerman Castle is on the Hudson and will take a fortune to fix up. So...

The Avatar is me when I first moved into my house and I'm modeling my new sporran (at that time).
