Explain your username.

“Explain your username.”​

No, thank you.

Let's say it a couple of corruptions away from my surname. After moving to the Netherlands where I live, my friends had a habit of calling each other by the last name rather than the first - an often abbreviated or corrupted versions thereof. This is what mine became, also due to being "that guy who knows Linux". We were still in school back then, but the guy who probably made it stick most is one of my best friends to this day, bless him.
 
Frode was the nickname a neighbor gave my younger brother when we were kids. Fast forward twenty years and now there’s this internet thing that is way cooler than AOL. I wanted a name that was easy enough to remember, but uncommon enough that nobody else was already using it. Frodebro it was, and to this day I have never received the “Sorry, that username is already taken” on any forum I have joined.
 
My last name is Purgason and it just seemed fitting to roll with Purgasound. My previous business names were stolen by peers so I figured it wouldn't be as easy to jack my name. They've all failed by now so I can probably get them back.
I still don't know how appealing "Purgasound" would be on the faceplate of an amplifier so I've considered something different for the amp line.

I don't see anything wrong with Purgasound as a name on an amp, in fact I think it's kind of cool.
