Game: Explain Your Nickname, easy, eh? Options

[Sabbattack]

Ok, this is not a forum game per se, but wtf!!

The rules are simple. Explain in a few words what your nickname means and why did you choose it. I'll start:

Sabbattack: Sabbat + attack

I'm a big fan of the 80's thrash band Sabbat, and since Martin (the band's frontman) is known for his great use of english idioms and puns, i made this one myself to honour him!!!

[Jack The Ripper]

ok let's see...
Jack + The Ripper

Jack The Ripper

Five prostitutes are brutally murdered in the East End of London. The killer is never caught and the infamous name of ‘Jack the Ripper’ stems from the signed letters the police received that admit to the murders. But did the hand of the killer write these letters? More than likely not!

The ‘Jack the Ripper’ murders as they quickly became known occurred in London more than 100 years ago in 1888. The killings took place within a mile area and involved the districts of Whitechapel, Spitalfields, Aldgate and the City of London proper and thus the murderer was also dubbed the Whitechapel Murderer and "Leather Apron." What made the killer so infamous was mainly due to the huge increase in media at that time as London society became gripped by details of the gruesome deaths investigated by not one but two police departments that appeared in the papers everyday.

Mary Ann (Polly) Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catharine Eddowes and Mary Jane (Marie Jeanette) Kelly, lives were all taken by ‘Jack the Ripper’ as the killer firstly strangled then mutilated his victims. Once the women were either dead or unconscious the Ripper would then cut their throats.

Obviously Scientific technology has advanced today and made catching killers easier, but 100 years ago the only way to catch ‘Jack the Ripper’ was if he was caught in the act or if any suspects confessed. Due to the notoriety of the case there were many false confessions by individuals such as Alfred Napier Blanchard. But men that were suspected by the police included David Cohen, W.H Bury and even Prince Albert Victor. Alas no one was caught and still today the identity of the Ripper remains a mystery.
