Ryano

One of many nicknames I picked up in my school days, (tank, fozzie, the fonz being some of the others). I'm a big fecker and had a tendency to charge at lads head down during my sporting endeavours. After scattering a few fellas out of my path somebody came up with Rhino/Ryano. 

My surname is Ryan so they stuck on "o" on the end and there ya go!

Guillem2

I was Guillem a good few years ago. Had to change to Guillem2 when we moved to a new site. Guillem was the name of a French lad I used to work with. I alway laughed at the way he pronounced it.
Talking is an overrated way of communicating.

I used to be Hardyarse The Fiddler. Then the brother announced that he was changing his name from Hardyarse The Farmer to Hardyarse The Homosexual and the family split on ideological  lines. The liberal, rights-affirming wing all showed their support by changing their names to Hardyarse The Hairdresser, Hardyarse The Goat-Fancier and the like. The other side went for over-compensation, distancing themselves from our ancient lineage with new handles like Bruce the Lumberjack and Harry the Hound Of Hell and so on.

I just decided to steer a middle ground and remove some of the emphasis on arses.

Class! Zapatista's good too, sorta wish i'd put some thought into mine now.......

Mine comes from one of the most surreal team talks I've ever witnessed when a particular tactic and line of running was explained in terms of missiles...
