Tyrel Cody Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 I'm sure we've done this before, but I'm lazy and just want to start another alias topic. Like many, I'm sure, I grew up reading Louis L'Amour books. So when it came time to get an alias for SASS I was going to choose one of my favorite characters, Tyrel Sackett; but, of course that was taken. So I grabbed that for a first name and the last name from another famous cowboy to come up with Tyrel Cody. How'd you get yours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three Foot Johnson Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Two of the many brands we've used over 6 generations ranching here started with Jbar, so I became known as J Bar when I started CAS. I went to register the name several years ago, and there already WAS a J Bar. OK... one of the Star Wars movies was out, and one of my kids said, "Dad, you could be J Bar Binks". So... I became a bumbling, long-eared, space cowboy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkey Flats Jack Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 I originally shot under the name Brimstone when I first tried it years ago. Started back up last summer and that name was taken. My fathers dad settled and raised his family in a little spot called turkey flats. My mothers dad went by the name Jack. So I thought i'd show hummage to both.

Texas Red Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 The real story is. My dad was career Navy and he married a girl from West Texas. Her dad, my grand dad was a real West Texas Cowboy. He had a small ranch and would say he had 3 dry cows, a mule and broke down cow pony, a great dog and woman that loved him. I showed up at his place when I was three years old. I had flaming red hair, at that age, just like his mother. He got me stick a horse, two cap pistols and a red cowboy hat. He nick-named me "Texas Red" and it's kinda stuck. Course this was long before Marty Robbins came up with "Big Iron" So there it is Texas Red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cemetery Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Easy. From the Italian Western called 'They Call Him Cemetery'. https://youtu.be/ck6ErOz4GeY There's a saloon scene where the two gunfighters are talking, and one tell's the other 'that' you're giving so much work to the Undertaker, he started calling you Cemetery'........

Cactus Mike Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 From Toronto, but spent 5 summers in Scottsdale AZ and Lubbock TX as a kid. We had a huge cactus garden in our driveway in Scottsdale, so I have cactus in my blood (and left a bit of blood on many a cactus). The “Mike” part was a choice my parents made.

H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Named after a cartoon character that was created to be my avatar in a couple of online animation forums I frequented back when I first came online in the mid 90's Said character: And that's all I'll say, for now. Maybe someday more details will be forthcoming. Actually, I will say that the Uriah part was indirectly named after Uriah the Hittite, but it's far to complicated to explain how.
