Some time ago, I heard this bit on the radio with some blues guy (I have no idea who).  He said if you want to be a blues man, you got to have a blues man name.  Here, start with a fruit for the first name and the last name of a dead president - instant Blues Man.  

So I thought, "If I ever need a new name, I am going with Kiwi Lincoln".  Of course, I could never imagine under what circumstances that would be relevant, but I always had hope that someday it would.  And here we are!

If you don't have your's picked out yet, now may be the time.

Boney Dog Hawkins Im cool with that . As far as fruit name id go with Coconut Kennedy .

Old Fingers Green!

Ugly Bones Bailey , very apt :-) 

It's good to have a blues name.   Always a fun topic.  Can I have Colorblind Johnny Johnson?

My real name is Muddy River Macdowell but you can call me RTZ.

And here I thought it was Swampy John Allison...oh, the disillusionment!

toothless lee?...lol..nahhh..I ,ll stick with Mr.Mellow:)

Being Canadian, I  need to use a Prime Minister rather than a president.

So I am staking claim to "Bearded Peach Diefenbaker".

Being from the USA, all I know how to reply is, "Beauty way to go, eh!"

You just done Don Cherry proud.

For non Canadians, just imagine the most opinionated hockey fanatic on the planet chronically drssed in high button down collar suits made from drapery material ... You will be half way there. Like him or not, he is a Canadian hockey icon.
What??!! No "Hoser Bob MacDougal?!"

Limp Willie Johnson, I'm knockin on 60's door .Of course with the miracle of modern medicine I could be Ceefus Cealis Bone!
