I've used this name so long I don't quite remember where I got it. Drunk one night while building a 2 line (2400 baud) BBS. I've been using it longer than I've had kids or a wifie :)

When I came on this thread I didn't intend to linger. But it is really addictive to read the meaning of the names.

Poaceae is the botanic name for the grass family. I have been involved in a grass identification project for the last 2 years and since the name never gets rejected because someone else has picked it . . . . .

I was fed up with fake names on the internet - so, well why not tell everybody what my parents decided to call me :)

I picked mine because I forget a lot, and when I do, all I have to do is look at my driver's license to get the pertinent facts;)

I'm a graphic artist and my name is actually Doug but my alter ego comic character that I created years back in high school was Dug. But Cross is the last name for both of us. :)
