[unclebuck]

Being somewhat portly, always looking out for them, my friends kids and their friends, having just watched the movie gave me the name. I would do the same things and probably more then what John Candy did in the movie!!!!

[Gongshow]

I chose Gongshow because that pretty much sums up my life. Seems I can't go anywhere or do anything without it turning into a gongshow.

and my Indian name? well my friends back in the day used to call me "Lips". There are youngins on here so i won't say why!

[Sundancefisher]

I know...many of you are wondering...where did my name come from. It is actually a lot more complicated than many would think.

It all started in a small hospital in Northern Alberta. It was a warm and humid day when I first poked my head out into the world. Everyone was amazed as I gazed up into the window with the wind blowing the curtains and creating such an awesome shadow effect...and then and there I spoke my first words. Sun Dancing Like Fish. People gasped with amazement!

Ever since then my nick name has been Sundancefisher.

Go figure.

Anything else you heard or guessed is just a lie.

[mtylerb]

mtylerb
m-tyler-b
m is for my first name: Murray - my dad goes by that name, so I've always gone by my middle name
tyler is my middle name
b is for my last name: Beckett - and you still won't find me in any phone book.

I've been using that username for years and found it's usually still available.

[FishBrain]

I have the brain of a fish, simple. cant remember squat.
I have my ideas why but that is another story

[Blackwolf]

I got "Blackwolf" when I did sweat lodge a dozen years ago, again an honour to be white and receive a first nations name. My other name is pistonbroke.

[The Fisherman Guy]

Fishing was the first sport that I took up, when I was barely able to walk. I do remember being in my white sandbox and my older brother came and dumped a brown bag full of red and white bobbers into my sand box to play with. He said they were for fishing.

I played and broke most of those bobbers trying to figure out how a fish could bite that tiny brass hook, if it is spring loaded into the top and bottom of the bobber. (Used to clasp the line). I think that began my obsession!

Into my elementary and junior high school years, I was known for always having fishing magazines in my backpack, desk, locker... everywhere! In grade 1, I put a spool of monofilament line in my desk, and somehow a length of it wrapped around another students leg. Next thing you know, half of the class is tangled in my WEB!

As for the "guy":

When I joined up with the forum, I was also looking at getting some other friends on board. Part of my scheme to get them to sign up, was that they needed to be a part of the "guy" posse! So far it's: Mooseguy, Twotwelveguy, Thatguy, Slurpeeguy, and yours truly - The Fisherman Guy.

As for my Indian name: Currently taking suggestions.

What I am waiting on a explanation on is: Alacringa

[Mulestalker]

Well ,considering my passion is pursuing Mule Deer, I went with Mulestalker...

Indian name - Deer with one horn -

[Rack]

Rack may apply to many things to many different people. For example you may refer to a slim built man as a rack, a place to hang your coat or hat, and quite honestly I enjoy ordering a rack of ribs from Montana's on occasion. No its not a reference to the Rack of a Deer, Elk, Moose or the like although that would have significant meaning as I am quite fond of those. I call myself Rack for the absolute true definition of my soul, the loves of my life, the reason's I live, my family.
R- rob A- amy C- conner K- kaden

I know what you were hoping I would say....yes those arent bad either!

[planetsmasher]

I hope to one day create an explosive devise that will...

Ahhh..not really. It's the same of this wicked SKA band out of Montreal, and I liked the name.. so I "liberated" it.

[crown royal 17]

NASCAR !
used to cheer for the #26 crown royal
now it is the #1 bass pro shops
Matt is second driver that I cheer for and I love Crown Royal and Coca Cola.
Jamie Mac 2010 Daytona Winner!

[huntinstuff]

My favorite show on TV when I was young was HR PufnStuf

So when I started the business back in 1988, I chose HR Huntin' Stuff (kinda made sense. Wife is Heather, Im Randy.....HR.....have a boy named Jimmy etc...etc)

My native name is "Runs like a Girl"

[Tonto]

the system wouldn't let me use my real name...Twodogs...king

[honda450]

I belonged to a ATV forum before this one and used the same user name as I had a Honda 450.

Native name.......Yamaha450.

[Duck Buster 1187]

What I like to do most, and what I like to use to do it with.

[MWD 800]

First of all MWD. MWD stands for Measurement While Drilling. It's my job on the rigs. 800 is because I have a Polaris 800. I joined a ATV forum before this one so I stuck with it to keep it simple. Not a great name but it is what it is.

Joe

[theycallmeNoah]

I have always loved animals and have always had two of everything....

2 dogs (well 3 now)
2 cats
2 bunnies
2 kids
2 hermit crabs (looking for a new home)
2 husbands (not at the same time and the second is a keeper)

One day a friend said "you're not freakin Noah, you don't need two of everything" and now the Noah reference has kinda stuck.

[Castincowboy]

Like BigBadJohn I'm a big guy so have always been called BigDaddy but how original is that? Plus someone else had it already, if I remember (I have fishbrains too).

Castincowboy is cause I love to fish and I'm a red neck.

I don't have a native name but Pouchinator's is "Tiny Pipe".
He also has a spanish name "Johnny Juan-Ball" or "The Uni-Baller".

[Good Ol' Boy]

I was a huge Dukes of Hazzard fan when i was a kid (Jessica Simpson did a fantastic job of rekindling my Daisy Duke fantasies). Good Ol' Boy is from the DOH theme song. It is also a term that hints at being a bit of a redneck, i don't mind admitting that my neck is redder than some. Really it sums me up, i like the simpler things in life like good friends, healthy family, the outdoors, shootin stuff, and fishin.

[timba]

TIMBA was the name of my first husky dog

I think your Indian name should be "Strikes with a rod" or "walks softly with a 6x".

[Gorram]

Short for "Gorram Reavers" an obscure sci-fi reference. Think "firefly".

My modern definition of a "reaver" is any one/group that is "progressive"

Indian name.... what else... "hey, pilot"

Cheers, G.
