Mine is a nickname my friends started calling me.

c.com or cDOTcom is a combo of my first (c) and last (.) name. They added the com because I'm a computer nerd.

Kinda cool.

I got mine years ago when I was a Russian Linguist in the Army, and when everyone called me Andy. The sooka part is a Russian curse word. I just added the "ndy" to it. It was an army buddy's idea and I've stuck with it.

Was in grad school when I started this user name a few years back, I've moved on to law school but never changed my name.

Mine comes from the monniker I took for my first foray into cowboy action shooting; I had a Ruger Vaquero and a Marlin 94 - both in .44...
