Perhaps as the opposite of **Jacob’s Latter (Ladder)**?

That makes sense. It’s a little obscure, or maybe I’m just slow on the uptake.

Here are some more I came up with:  
Morgue Street (to continue the Poe references)  
Jeapordy Spelling Champ  
Minister of Western Chimes (play on Westminster Chimes)

How about **Rumorg** (or **Rumourg** if you’re non-American)? Sort of like _simorg_, an alternate spelling of the mythical Persian giant bird _simurgh_, + Rue Morgue / rumo(u)r… okay, if it wants that much explaining maybe it’s a bad idea.

Or if Tony is Latin / Italian / Spanish, how about \*\*Murders in the Via Morgue \*\*/ **Murders in the Strada Morgue** / **Murders in the Calle Morgue**?

**Tony Two Toes** , if you’re Italian.

The best way to avoid the used name is to type it into SD search engine in the User Name slot. You will also see variations as you type in all the letters. Example start by typing in cow and see the list of names that show up starting with cow.

**What Ain’t No Country.**

I’ll see what anybody thinks and then send it in. I doubt it’s already been taken.
