Last season on “ER”, there was a bit about how to determine your porn star name. There were a couple of variations, but the one I remember was this: you take the name of your first pet, and add the name of the first street you lived on.

I came up with “Ginger San Felipe”, which would suggest I would have to be a trans-gender porn star.

What names do you guys come up with, and are there other variations on the formula?

I thought that formula was to figure out your name as a drag queen.

Hey, that’s not a bad one! Using the other method - middle name, street you live on now - I’d be Catherine Pine, which isn’t bad either.

Hmm…

The one I read a couple years ago said take your middle name and the street you grew up on. John Gumwood, at your service.  
There were some other good ones among my friends, John Burnham, Ann Van Dorn, Terence Knox.  
Ignore the people who tell you they grew up on 48th Street.

You had a pet named Bob? That’s such a … human name. My first cat was Midnight, but the street was just a number. Boo hoo.

Your male porn star name could be the name of your high school mascot followed by the last name of one of your favorite actors. Like, if you went to Harvard and your favorite actor was William Hurt, you would be Crimson Hurt. But that’s a bad example.

You can call me Eagle Keitel.

Well, as I said in  
[http://www.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum4/HTML/000682.html](http://www.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum4/HTML/000682.html) ,

I prefer the “middle name, street you live on now” version…

That makes me Christopher Shady.
