A screen name confession

So I have used Bodie as a screen name on the net and for video games for a long time. If you guessed that I got it from Point Break you are right. I know, it's sad. Unfortunately I must admit that I think it is the best movie that any of the actors involved (Keanu, Swayze, and Busey) ever made (Swayze was also great in Donnie Darko). Even sadder I went through a period where I though that the Bodie character in Point Break was a pretty kick ass dude and inspired me to try and learn to surf (I suck at it).

Anyways, the name has been grating on me for a while now. I am wondering if it has occured to anybody else that it is a particularly lame screen name?

What about suggestion? Here's a few I am pondering:

beerme
Jonny Utah (just kidding)
zippy (my office nickname)

What about Karl Hungus?

Maybe Dr. M? Without the last name (undesireable on the internet), the "beerme" name just doesn't sound right. Hungus it is.

I don't think Bodie is lame. I vote no on Zippy.
