What's in a name?

O.K. I'm Abraham, because that's my Chistian name - in the dubbel sense of the word, actually.
Neal Stevens = Neal Stevens, that's clear, the Leader of the Pack.
John C. Channing and Bill Nichols also seem to be existing personalities, but who are you?

Drebbel, what made you pick that nick? Kapitain, why not Captain? Oombongo you say you're not from Africa, but you certainly have to explain something! XabbaRus, how Russian are you? TLAM Strike, you really sound threatening! Sixpack, do you really drink six cans at once? Skybird, well I know that you love Falcon flight si... ooops, sorry...
The Avon Lady only explains on her webside why she's not the Avon lady...
Is Damo1977 really 28 years old? Joea sounds Spanish to me, but I doubt if Hitman - who lives in Spain - is a hired killer... Isn't Iceman living somewhere in the desert instead of the North Pole, Arizona or what?
Is Rockstar really a rockstar whose CD's I can buy?
Shouldn't names like Jace11 and Gizzmoe by forbidden by law?
Don't you see a future, Torpedo Fodder?
And Pigfish, what the hack did you have in mind?
Not to mention all those names that don't pop up at 02:36 am...

To make a long story short, this thread is not about 'Who are you?' but about 'Why are you named the way you are?'
