I got mine from a nickname someone at work gave me back in 2000....It's just my given name with an "owski" on the end. But then I started using that name in all my online PC games and I've just never really thought to change it...Most people think it's Rage-nowski but actually it's pronounced more like "Reaganowski" like the former President of the US. I just spell my name a little differently. I suppose people sometimes think I'm an angry polish person but I'm really not LOL

i used to be a member of a now defunct forum called Spymac a few years ago. my screen name there was Crayola. i chose that cuz i'm a graphic designer and loved crayons when i was a kid ... plus i can be a colorful character. anywho after a while people would call me Cray for short, then a friend started calling me Craybee and it stuck with with everyone else; i liked it too; since then i'm just Craybee where ever i go. :)

this thread caught my eye because somebody commented on my name this morning and I explained it:

'Haha it was a nickname that I picked up as a 6"3 300 pounder during an unfortunate but interesting year spent working in a Georgia saw mill... and not one of those nicknames that never really catches on, one that spreads like wild fire and people that you have know for 6 months ask you "what is your real name anyway?. lol'

I used to rodeo when I was younger,say 21-24..the guys I ran with started calling me Big Van Vader...after getting the cowboy thing out of my system I started flying RC Helis and going to flying events..I used BigVanVader on the forums and had it on my heli so I could easily be identified(like being 6'6 and 350lbs isnt an identifier).I guess my friends in the heli community that I always seen at the fun flys were lazy and shortened it to simply "Vander".Been using it ever since.So my nickname plus my area code.
