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.

Um... kinda... I love a quote of her's, so I used her name. But then I read one of her books... But I still love the quote! Here it is:

Once upon a time, I was writing a detective story. Dylan Kane was one of the brothers of the detective, Nick Kane.

M is short for my first name which is Marc.
I'm sure you can guess that Lacrimosa is my last name. I chose to use my real name because...well....it sounded like a good detective name and besides that, I couldn't think of a good fictional character name

I couldn't be bothered to look back, but is Rosamund Clifford named after Henry II's (English King, 1154 to 1189) mistress?

I have an odd fascination for former US Vice President Dick Cheney. Hence the name. :)
