How do you make up your forum name?

[HawkeyeMS]

I thought you were named after the character in MASH, with MS standing for Medical Surgeon.

Can't remember how I got mine, but I am sure it is very clever.

Sorry to disappoint

 

[Crazyface]

After trying for about 1/2 hour at work trying to get a name that e bay would accept and hammering the keyboard to bits in anger with my face screwed up in rage and fury I hammered in crazyface.........and in it went.

[Deleted Member 1156]

I wanted Putt4dough on another forum I used to be on but it was already taken so went for this name instead and just carried it over. Quite surprised it was available on here with it being such a common golfing term and millions of members already signed up.
