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 chose my name, because I wanted one that was unique, realistic, but not a boring one. I hope I was right :)

I love Phantom of the Opera and My favorite song from it is Angel Of Music, (which I also sang in a school function) so I just chose that :)

Mine is in honor of my grandmother who was a mystery nut. :) Della, her name and Devine because it sounded good together.

Mine is just a combination of a favorite name of mine (Talia) mixed with Anna and Periwinkle is my favorite color... sooo... yeah.

My detective's name has nothing to do with my RL name, I just thought "Talianna" sounded like a cool name along with, like I said before, my fave color, periwinkle. So, my name was just my creative brain rollin'

:D

mine comes from an old-ish episode of 'The Simpsons', in which the word 'felafel' was deemed too foreign for the Springfield snack-wagon market. But actually, I really hate this name, lol. meh...buyers remorse and stuff.

I got it from a book I really enjoy called; "Tricker's Choice." I thought the name was pretty and I couldn't really think of anything else...
