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.

I got my name from my favorite character, Scarlett O'Hara, my middle name Renee, and Weatherton because they wouldn't accept any name that didn't fill in the whole space:)lol

Detective Timothy Hong is named after our cat, Timothy (who was knocked down by a car back in January).

Detective Timothy Hong also likes referring to himself in the third person.

LemonyShepard...wow this is a long and confusing story. K, so one day in my high school me and my friends were drawing random doodles on a locker (like the bad kiddies we are). I drew a sheep and then wrote the letters 'LS' on it (the night before I watched a series of unfortunate events by lemony snicket). From then on, I have drawn these sheep everywhere i go, making them my insignia. Since the letters 'LS' were written in htem, I called them the LemonySheep. Which, obviously, let my friends to calling me the LemonyShepard. (i pretty much use that name on every online game/forum I ever go on)

I play all games that involve explosions of some kind (first person)..and I run a teamspeak server on my linux box and one night, one of the guys was imitating a strafing run.

"Infantry sighted...blakow blakow blakow!"

That and I sometimes say "Shiggity blakow" when accentuating something. Weird, I know...

And there we go!

I have to admit, I ripped my name off from a character in the Nintendo GameCube/Plastation 2 game, Timesplitters 2.
