Just to have fun with this topic, and hoping no offense is taken by anyone, figured I'd put down my thoughts about everyone's screen name..  Again no offense meant to anyone, and wondering - does anyone have any (non offensive) impressions of their own of the different screen names?

  • Navy vet - a navy vet
  • O1GT eibach: The Russian guy from Rocky
  • Sparquelito: Someone fun in a fun band
  • Retired: Frankenstine
  • Old Cowboy: Texas, bronco rider
  • Sgt Pepper: A slapstick sgt, maybe named pepper
  • Jaxon50: Someone slick
  • Merciful evans: A decider of big things, but he's merciful
  • Kidblast: Boston verson of Kid Rock
  • Karloff: Frankenstine
  • Twang gang: someone in a band with a tele
  • Tman: someone with the first name T
  • Gmac: : MC GMAC
  • Saturn: The Jetsons
  • Larsongs:  Someone who produces comforting music
  • Notes Norton: Someone who is proficient on a piano, probably in jazz
  • billroy fineman: Someone really cool, and fine

 

Ha! Nice idea tributes there. 🎸

It's funny, but I go by my nickname in every other facet of life, except for the band. 

The given name is John Sparkman, but after years of service in the Army, that turned into the nickname Sparky. 
(Sometimes, Spark, Sparkinator, or Sparquelito.)

But in general, everyone calls me Sparky. 
Though the wife calls me Spark, as a rule. 

In the band, everyone calls me John for some reason. 

Not sure why. 

😐
 

 

I like "the Sparkinator".  May I call you that?

Tman is my last name ending in man - very Germanic. I should have used an apostrophe. There was a 50/50% chance and you blew it 😃- especially with your screen name Fineman. Some call me the Tirmanator. Back to the OP, I should have said that instead of a childhood nickname.

But the quote under your Name is from Abbey Road. :-k O:) 

I know I will be changing it on a regular basis when I get bored with the current one. I just picked that line cause I've been playing that album alot.

As far as my screen name here. There was no big significance to Saturn. When I first created my account I was driving my third Saturn vehicle so I just chose that. I also liked the astronomical sound of it.

On a side note, I loved all my Saturn cars and was sad to see that division of GM close down.

The screen name I use is a reflection of my Irish/Scott heritage, Mihc being a very early phonetic spelling of Mc and just a regular Mac. In my later years I identified with the Aqualung character and PS'd in a Les Paul Double Cut, I have used many different icons since joining but Aqualung just seemed to fit the best..
