Thread: Where does your profile name come from?

When I 1st built up my 2 door years ago with 900 /16 Tractor tyres , 4.4 < lift etc the locals would say .."Go see Rangier Rover" as radical Rovers wern't a common site here in those days. I'm thinking about changing it soon Just have to think of one more appropiate as my Rangies are far from being Rangier these days.

With a surname of Hodgson I was either called Hodgie or Hodgo or Dongers while in the army, When I joined this forum I just chose hodgo

After a few years in SE Asia and china and being called Clean ( real name Dean ) to make things simple I even introduced myself as Clean.
On patrol in the 3 border area I would kit up with 2 Topi 32's in chest holsters. ( as well as a FN) a rather unusual bit of kit, made me a bit of a joke for a bit, until it proved its self and they started to copy.

Well when I first moved to Two Rocks the plates weren't taken so I got them and it went on my old Pajero. When I sold that I transferred the plates to the Landy. I was always 2Rocks on POCUK (a top UK forum for Paj owners) and now on AULRO.
On ausjeepoffroad I'm Shetani (an African devil spirit) as I joined there with a Flame Red TJ, but will proabbaly change it when I get personal plates for the new one as it's green/tan.

Mine came about in my school years as I was a competitive swimmer so was always in the pool and when I wasn't in the pool I was in the surf or some other form of water. Then when I moved to college for uni it stayed as my fresher name and took on another meaning.
