What's in a name?

[Smod]

Mine comes from my last name SMITH

As a young lad at the the age of 5 or 6 I was called SMITHY, then some bright spark said SMOTHY which gradually changed to SMODDY then shortened to SMOD. Stuck ever since.

My real name's Adrian. I did get stick when Adrian Mole came out but unlike Moley I happen to like my name.

I just got fed up with random numbers after my name, so picked some I enjoyed.

[oldbloke]

On good old Usenet newsgroups I went through a whole slew of nicknames, especially the time I had a stalker. In a way you're lucky I didn't arrive here when I was still using Rapunzel Syndrome. I am older than a lot of peeps on the net, but equally, there are plenty of people my age or older around. When I started using oldbloke, people on the newsgroups I used seemed to like it, using it instead of my real name when they hadn't really done that with other nicknames, so it stuck.
