What is in a Name?
What made you guys pick the name you have as your member name?
For me the girls back in school used to call me daunwaun, they used to say " we 'daunwaun' you around"

I used to work in a foundry with some pretty rough characters. I had a ratty looking leather jacket at the time, and a pretty raucious sense of humor....they tagged me as Rawhyde. I've had that as a nickname and screen name ever since.

Nothing exciting or special for me - the initials (JAD) and the last four digits of my first telephone number (3703).

Teofilo was the name of a Champion racehorse that was going to win me a lot of money (and pay for a SS Daytona with the loose change)........I had him(as the last horse) in doubles and trebles from the previous seasons racing.
He was a red hot favourite for the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket......and was withdrawn with a career ending injury the day before the race...........sod's law strikes again!  I keep the name to remind me that there is no such thing in racing(or life) as an absolute certainty !!!!!!

Prince for the Rolex Prince, of course. But also playing off of "The Artist Formerly Known as Prince - and Now Known as Prince Again"...

I picked Downing because Downing is in fact my name. First name. It's english. My last name, Bethune, is french.
However, I like to think of myself as American mutt.
