I've been using internet mail lists, discussion groups and forums for many decades, starting with usenet back in the late 80's. Used to be you would just use your email address and a good long signature to tell way too much about yourself. Then, all these forums came around and you needed a handle. That was always the hard part, coming up with a unique cute handle. After trying a few different variations of my name on a few different forums, I exclaimed "What The F...!". Hmm, maybe  I had something there. Contracted it to W'uck, then left the apostrophe out, and Wuck was born. It hasn't been turned down by any forum yet :)

Just resurrecting this thread to see if we have any new people who’d like to share the handle they identify with! This is supposed to be for fun

There are some interesting and long "handles".

Like mine.

Wasn't thinking when I started 11 years ago.

Maybe I should have used a shorter one.

Oh well, C'est la vie.

Still here and still trying to be lucky. I’m with Ski3pin, the resurrection is a great idea. Hope some others share.

All of my cousins drove 1-ton trucks OffRoad and elsewhere so when I bought my 1/2-ton Dodge I took quite a bit of ribbing. Funny thing...I was always pulling them out or getting a bit further with my truck. After about the 5th save at Pismo they started calling for the “Mighty Dodge Ram” to come and help. The name stuck, but now that I drive a Chevy I’m questioning the wisdom of using a handle that is vehicle specific.
