After the little green fish that I used to catch a lot of, found out about this forum from Ausfish so just used the same handle and now use it everywhere,  was going to use mudskipper as I got stuck in the mud flats in Mackay as a teenager when fishing for about 3 hours but chose garfish as they are tasty

When I first started my current job, Strvn Marvn popped up on South Park! I just shaved my head and was quite a bit skinnier, so the guys have called me Strvn Marvn so I thought I'd use it here!!!

When I was working at a motorsports team, I had just got my L's and was asked to move one of the cars.
I promptly crashed it into a wall and got the nickname after that car,
Yes it was a Mitsubishi Evolution IV.

I am yet to crash another one but it kinda stuck.....
It got shortened to Evo after awhile.

A few years ago I did a lot of research into my family history and found that my first and last names are very unique and have not been used together before, not in nearly 400 years.

My user name is the first three letters of my first and last names with a 'Y' chucked on the end for good measure.

I figured this would be pretty unique, how wrong could I be,there are marschy's plastered all over the net
