Topic: Whats In A Name?

Do you ever wonder how some of us chose our user names. Some are obvious as some chose their own name. I chose mine from two different places, one of my favorite albums of the 70's was ZZ Top's "Tres Hombres" & being a western fanatic from one of my favorites was "Hombre" with Paul Newman. How did you choose yours?

Re: Whats In A Name?

I chose Tripod because of it's sexual meaning.

I had guessed it referenced the Oracle at Delphi, who sat on a tripod over the vent, voicing her visions.  lol

Re: Whats In A Name?

"Rusty Fingers" because my fingers felt pretty rusty when I started playing the guitar again last summer (after a hiatus of 12+ years). And because "Rusty Fingers" sounds like a cool blues name to me. cool

And also because "Tripod" was already chosen... wink

Re: Whats In A Name?

Well, I've always loved Blues music, but really was surprised that 'BluesMan" was available at the time.

And Tripod, we call one of my golfing buddies "Quadpod". The reason? It has to do with the use a golf club at the time that mother nature was calling. I'll stop there...... wink lol
