In a remote arctic lodge, a conversation was had...
Ahoy! If you'd be so kind, what is your preferred name? Also, do tell, what is the delightfully devious story of your username?
@KovoWolf ("Kovo") has been my online handle since junior high. It was born from an interactive storytelling adventure my sister and I created together for a FFMMORPG on mIRC back in ye-old day, and it stuck around all these years. When I was choosing a name, I wanted something short and meaningful that reflected part of my Native American heritage. I loosely based it on "Kokomikiisom," a Blackfoot word meaning

Ahoy! If you'd be so kind, what is your preferred name?

I like Joe best. A few people still call me “Joey” but only those people are still allowed because they are grandfathered in from my childhood and, yes, one of those people is my mom. My legal name is Joseph, but it’s not my favorite. I mean, I guess I could legally change it to “Joe” but uuuuuuggggghhh seems like such a drag so here we are 😃
