Tell us in a post how you chose the current Steemit username you have. The story behind it.

Real simple, not very exciting though. It was just random, I choose a random name for every site I join. Usually picking a name is difficult due to the name squatting and good names being taken, so I generally just pick random names until I get something.

Believe it or not, it has nothing to do with Mark Wahlberg and his old band Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch. Although I always liked the few songs he made and the movies he was in. It was more of just a goofy repeating name that wasn't taken. I have regrets though as I wish I went with something Firefly themed as I now use that a lot in my cover image and it is kind of how I am known here.

Tell us your real name!

I don't have one, but if you need one just call me Bob, Frank, or Joe. I've been called far worse.

If you could change your current username, which name would you choose and why? If you have a possible usernames list, mention it!

As mentioned above, I'd gone with something Firefly themed. Serenity would be my top pick.
