Default What's in a name?

I see all the screen names and while some don't need an explanation, some I was wondering about how you came up with them.

How did you come up with your screen name.

I'll start.
When I got my Crossfire, since it was not going to be my daily driver it turned out to be nothing more than a fun toy. A very fun toy to say the least!!

HDDP was the personalized plate I had made for the car, it's an acronym for my profession "High Definition Director of Photography"

If anyone has ever played the Playstation 1 video game called SUIKODEN 1 or 2 there is a character named CLIVE, who doesn't take **** from no one and is a badas*, plus an excellent marksmen.

Also the name Clive is simple and catchy, its used as my XBOX LIVE handle, World of Warcraft name, forums names, Playstaion 3 handle.

Well my nickname is Maximus and I'm in the navy; our slang is squid. So I just combined the two years ago for all my handles.

IF once the regulation allowed to have custom license plate, EMBRACE it will be.
For now, xfire embrace, is the feeling I always experience whenever I am in mine...

color of my still favorite car... my '98 neon r/t... many fond memories of my old friend, the R/T, and i teaching lessons of humility on the highway to supposedly faster cars... one trip into boost is all it took to convince anyone what the car was capable of...
