Why do you use your specific handle

Hi, This does not have much to do with swimming, but I was just wondering how people come up with their handles (your alias that you use for your name). Do you have a specific meaning or did somebody just give you this nickname? Mine was given partially tot me by my brother-in-law, who thought that hans was a Dutch name (i am Dutch) and I like James bond, although he is a bad swimmer...

    Phil Arcuni (aka Filet a Racoon), Do I detect another snide shot at us Smiths in your 'Tall' story? This is becoming a habit. Some of us Smiths can spel, you know. TallPaul can spel beer and pizza - that's all that counts. Ian PS #1: If this was March 1, I'd say your explanation was about a month early. Otherwise you are just social-climbing, pretending you have a Greek name. PS #2: Bert used to be "Flyguy" - what happened to that? (especially in view of his recent new record fly times)
