The **Rawhide Kid** ’s name was **Johnny Bart**.

The **Outlaw Kid** ’s name was **Lance Temple**.

**In this western story I’m writing about Kid Czarcasm, what name do you want this character to have that his folks gave him when he was born?** I was going to think of one myself, but I thought you might want to be the one to pick the name.

Pick a name other than your real name so you can maintain your privacy here in the boards.
