I had mine since the 5th grade, my last name is Catalano, so a few people started calling me Cadburyalano after the cadbury egg. So it kinda stuck for awhile.........

Na is the symbol for sodium, Cl is the symbol for chloride. Sodium cloride (NaCl) is salt, H2O is the chemical symbol for water so you have salt water as my name.
On almost all of the BB's I've used that name, but on two BB's it was used and I went for "Dan The Man" a phrase a good freind of mine uses refering to me sometimes. When I went on the first BB were it was used, I got "log on name block" and my son who was on my lap remembering what my freind calls me, suggested it. You have to use your kids ideas, you just can't say no to them.
The funny thing is, whoever used my name on those two BB's never posts on them, he just used up my name so I have to have two names to keep up with.

My first name is Robert, my middle name is Charles; so I abbreviated, and came up w/ Rob Chuck. I normally just go by Rob though.

Well, somehow the name I wanted was 'taken'. I go by Joker3090 on other boards. Joker being my nickname given to me by my Drill Instructors in Marine Corps Recruit Training for 2 reasons. 1 because I am a smartass ALL the time and 2 because I actually look like the Joker character in Full Metal Jacket. 3090 was my platoon number in boot camp. I then sat here drawing blanks since 'my name' was taken so I just chose the unoriginal FishFan (for obvious reasons) I live in NY and was born in 79. Nothing exciting.

My name is Ryan. Me and my future wife were into bowling for quite a while and when we entered our names into the computer we were know as RyeBread and Vivian Stardust. Little did we know that when we threw a strike or picked up a spare the sound system screamed out STRIKE by RyeBread!! The name stuck when friends witnessed this crap.
