I do historical re-creation for a hobby, and my "historical name" is Morgan Buchanan. Pretty well all my friends call me Morgan. I have FAMILY members who call me Morgan, tho it's not my legal name. It's far more interesting than my real name. LOL

Mine is from a real small town in Arkansas called vick pop.6 including 2 coon dogs. My dad was raised there and we have a small chunk of land there covered mostly with pine trees.
If ya' want to be in the middle of nowhere - this is the place to be. I like it though when i go there.

The lead "vocalist" of my punk band gave the nickname (It's my stage name, does that make it an Alias?) I'm 6'6", 225lbs and used could run a sub 5 second 40yrd dash, hence "Blitzcraig".

Mine is not that difficult to figure out. Although it was some years back, I was in the Navy, and was proud to serve my contry. :patriot:

Actually, I use flint, obsidian, chert, jasper, novaculite, agate, etc..... but that would make a really long name.

Yeah, I know...........kinda weird. :???:

I know this post is 2 years old but that to me is very COOL! What an incredible hobby and it looks like you do an incredible job!

Mine is simple first initial last name, which with a name like Eric is not always easy to get.

We loved watching "The Queens of Comedy" and there's a scene in the comedy skit that talks about skinny B(......) and them shaking cause they are hungry (please pardon I'm not trying to curse just explain the origin :waiting: ) and all the large individuals should ball up their fists and bop the skinny B's on the head :mrgreen: . At that time, I was 5'10" 120lbs (or less :shock: ), so I definitely was skinny (I'm still 5'10" but now 130lbs :headscratch ). So I became known to all my close friends as the SkinnyB(....), but we all shortened it to SkinnyB so that it was not as offensive and that fits on a motorcycle license plate, and then I added my birth year to be unique from all the other SkinnyB's.
