Some of us have interesting reasons to pick a detective name. What is yours?
jstkdn which some people don't realize right away stands for JuST KiDding! It is something I tend to say a lot in real life after a lot of sentences. A good friend of mine in the US had jstkdn as a license plate of her car, so I wasn't that inventive myself.
My previous other agent was PM, which stands for Project/Program Manager, my profession in real life.
My only detective that I currently play with is freelancermountaineer. Only because Freelancer was taken. Sidney Bristow in the Alias series uses two call signs freelancer and mountaineer.

My name is from the song Black by Okkervil River. Before I signed up, after my first/practice account retired and I had some familiarity, I knew I was going to be a moonlighting dilettante. The name really seemed fitting for the era and the story.

Jay = My real name is Jason.
Rain = In all my other online games, I am known as 'raen' and it's ALWAYS in small letters. I couldn't bring myself to write 'Raen' as this would be betraying my online reputation for the past 2 years and so therefore spelt it 'Rain'. =P

I have a tattoo on my arm that says 'cenoe', which is the name of my dead homeboy. So people started to call me cenoe. But I felt silly naming my detective after my nickname, so I added another word that I really like.... Hence, cenoecox.

Looking at all the interesting reasons, I should make up an interesting name next time too. n.n"
As for the great history of my username, it's part of my email address. ~ Misses a Thrown Tomato By an Inch ~

And as a comment to Aiden, Conan's last name was Edogawa. His name is Edogawa Conan. Sorry, but I'm a Detective Conan freak.

I got my the first part of my detective name from a show I was watching on... I believe it was Discovery channel. They were talking about big cats and I was trying to think of my username during this. Ligers weren't specifically mentioned but they did show a Siberian Tiger and a White Lion (Which is what I guess caused me to think of Ligers) And thinking that simply "Liger" was taken, I went to www.behindthename.com and started browsing the surnames and just chose one that sounded good with Liger. Possibly the longest story behind a username I've ever had.
