I am curious about this. How many of us use part or all of our real name or some variation?

My real name starts with the same letter as "Colette" Although the name I go by in real life does not.

Elle is part of my real name and 74 is my yob.

Used it because it was easy to remember and I didn't want to NOT respond to people if they said my name, lol.

Let's see... My SL first name is a variant of one I use as a pen name for stories on the web. That, in turn, uses part of my RL name and an old nickname almost no one knows.

So... my SL name is kinda-sorta based on my RL name, but in a convoluted way. Does that count?

My first name sounds very similar to my RL first name. My SL last name is some kind of pun on my RL last name.
