What do your names mean/why chosen?

Run into some old friends from another group or board? Want to do a little schmoozing, talk over old times? Or just some off topic stuff, then this is the place.

my call sign is a derivative of my last name. I picked it up back in high school in the 70's when friends thought it was easier to just say "Mo" instead of using my first or complete last name! The Big has been added to it over the years due to the continued growth of my girth. If I ever lose the 100 pounds I've set as a goal then I'll probably have to change it!

Or not! :wink:

I chose mine a while ago. My favorite band at the time was "Novella"

I combined that with "hub" when I did some website hosting in the past. It has just stuck after a while. :)

Yeah the muscle/pony car prices as of late are outrageous.

That's a nice story though, always good to hear it's an original owner. Maybe I'll be able to join those forums some day but not anytime soon. The markup on the new Shelby's is equally outrageous so for now I'll have to be content with the regular 'ole GT.

As for me, my real name is Colin, and perhaps my most popular nickname, popularized by my friend Joey down in Tallahassee, is Colinito. Longhand it's Colinito's Way, but I think of that more as the truth/divinity I hold within and use to guide myself through life.
DanAS1 comes from my nickname (Dan, which is short for Daniel -- which in Hebrew is actually a very different name, and Biblical character, than Dan), middle initial (A for Albert) and first letter of my last name (S for Spiro).
