being a miserable old git, I don't like either :lol: . I got too clever with my username and now don't like it, and I never did like my own name a huge amount.

Generally for anominity I stick with my username (though my real name has slipped out occasionally).

I'll tell you all this right now. I prefer to be called Jason because it is hard to distinguish what my username actually means!

People usually butcher my first name (Thanks mom, thanks dad!) so I'd rather they simply not try. That, and for whatever reason I just don't identify with my given name, if that makes any sense.

My middle name, well, it is also my father's name. I used to absolutely hate when people called me by it (like the auto place on main street, they gave up on my first name so they went with my middle name) so I'd rather it not be used either.

My last name, though not as "difficult" as my first, works reasonably well. I'm still not a fan of being addressed with it.

My screenname? I can't say I'd prefer people to call me that verbally. Not sure why, just sounds...weird. Well, that's not entirely true, I partly know why. In the past someone used to call me that. Memories I've tried to forget. As for text? Screen name all the way.

The 'T' stands for 'Tom'.
I prefer Tom but someone already took that :evil:
And I'm not big, but I am tall; 6"2'.

Whenever I see your username BigT, I always think of Big Dan T from "O Brother Where Art Thou?"!
