My online gaming handle used to Vagabond, until one day in Homeworld I took out everyone else in a big 5 player game. They all started to call me "Lord and Master" (jokingly, of course) so I changed my name to LordVagabond, and it's just stuck

The other way is that it just plain sounds neat

No idea how my nickname came out. It's not even a noun. I do enjoy math, but that's not why I chose my name.

My Mom and Dad liked Gary Cooper and Mom and Dad's last name begins with the letter "J". The rest of it is just too long to use all the time, so garyj is fine. Some of my students (when I taught) called me Mr. J. I liked that but think it's too formal.
