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.

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.

My Detective name comes from a character I've been working on for a graphic novel. Its actually Dolores Blayne, "Foxi" is her cabaret pseudonym lol. But, like all my ideas, it will probably never see fruition (other than potentially a subscribed char here) :p
I also have Freya Niccaff. Freya is an online name I've used for many years, I smoke (evil, I know :S) and drink lots of coffee, so hence the Nic(otine) Caff(eine). Nic is also from my real name (Nikki).

My college dormroom number was 007.
My real name is Viktoria and I had a friend in the dorm who found it amusing that I live under 007.
So, I started to say "my name is Toria, Miss Toria", just for her amusement, but then it stuck on me.
Why not Vik Toria? Well I liked to be misterious... And it sounded better too.

My real name is David and I lost my usual username to my first detective. somewhere around 2 years ago. (This was before we could un-retire them)
For my next detective I tried to come up with something rhimey to go with David and sort of settled with wave for Dave even though I hate it when people call me Dave.
