Any oldies on here ever have a "punk" name?
When punk music came out, a lot of punks took on punk names as their aliases, similar to Sid Vicious, Johnny Rotten, Poly Styrene etc. I was a bit late for that trend, but the missis had "Molly Cule" for a short while, and one of our mates was (and still is) "Goz Anarchy".

I was only 9 (LOL), so no nickname. I did think they were "cool", although as I recall that word hadn't yet seeped it's way across from the Yanks at that point.

Nataz, more of a thrash/heavy metal thing though as punk had long gone. There was some guy called Mantis and another called the Judge.

Polly Styrene and X-Ray Specs, I used to play their album over and over and over and over again much to my parent's (and neighbours 
) pleasure
I didn't have a punk name but used to wear a razor blade earring and thought I was well cool, I was only about 14 at the time
A few years later when I became a New Romantic I went around calling myself Emily Grey which I thought went well with my silver grey hairdo. Oh the shame

I did, they were uncool, I had to take my little sister to the Hammersmith Odeon to see them, I hated every minute of it as I thought it was ruining my image
I once posted a pic of me as a New Romantic on here but took it down fairly quickly
After my New Romantic phase I became a Rockabilly then a Psychobilly Oh the fun that was the eighties
