I chose mine so J4cko's Mate didnt seem so random.

Actually, its because JACKO wasnt available because some pleb had used it and then I think, never posted, I dont own the plate, I thinka few Scoobynetters have waived at "me" in the car with that plate on, certainly said they have seen me

mine started when i was at school, i've always been a bit of a chunk and my surname is Elliott. So when Billy Elliott came out someone thought to call me Belly Elliott which then got shortened to Belliott, then i added 69 as i was a teenager and sex ruled my brains.

Rannoch - my original name was after one of my favourite places to fish and camp

Spooky Mulder - was after Spooky Mulder of the X Files and seemed appropriate all those years ago

Trout - because I used to be a serious, serious trout fisherman, fishing magazine writer and briefly (controversial) british record holder for a big phat trout.

When I used to have Sky I was watching that 'Music Choice' channel where you select one of 10 different styles. I picked Dance naturally and found what to me was the funkiest house track ever. The guy on the remix duties was a Mr 'Chocolate O'Brien' and I loved the name.
When registering on eBay I struggled like **** to get something both memorable and unique until that name cropped up. As you can't have spaces in eBay user names I simply put " _ " inbetween. Didn't wanna copy it directly so changed it from Brien to Brian.

I'm neither black or called Brian

The 'ania' bit.

From that, it just naturally changed to Andy through skule years.

My nephew still calls me Uncle Zip, though
