    Old thread, but whatever.



    I met this cool guy named Derek and then I met Abraham Lincoln and he was cool. So I put the two cool people together.


    My first name is Derek and my middle name is Abraham.

    One of my favorite movies is Excalibur, I also like the story and legend of King Arthur. So, I dropped the "bur" and added the "s". At that time, I googled to see if that name would pull anything and it found nothing so I went with it.

    Now you can google "excalis" and find others using that name now. BUT I WAS FIRST! MWUAHAHAH!

    Cakmakli is the name of the Installation that I was stationed at while in Turkey. It is, or was about 20 mins outside of Istanbul. I spent the best three years of my Army career there.

    And the C is pronounced Ch. There should be a tail on the C like this: Çakmaklı

    Moderators move this if needs be. Didn't know exactly where to post this:

    Pretty cool all the different names that are on here. Some are obvious, some are probably private but if you are willing to share then do tell why you chose your user name to be what it is.

    I'll start: I love fishing and I love my dog, and all the pups I have had in my life. So FishingPups.
