    My wife actually came up with the name when we first got WebTV about 25 years ago.
    It came from something she really did not like about me in high school.
    I loved to fight, probably more than most male teenagers. I didn't go out picking and rarely starting but even if I got beat you knew who I left my mark on. The school we went to in the early 90s is/was when guys thought it was okay to start laying their hands on women/girls..... I had no problem handing my wife (girlfriend at the time) my books. It was to a point that she would just walk away and put them in my locker knowing I would get suspended.
    The other side of the name came from my love for the American Pitbull and we have had them in our family for over 20 years. Currently have four females from 2 year to the old girl who will be 10 this year.
    Long story short, my wife gave birth to our son and my name.
    PitOnTheProwl has been around for a long time and there is no other. :gj:


    Got to love pits. One of the best dogs I ever had was a pit. Found her at 6 weeks old on the street in Baltimore outside penn station. Hence her name, Penny. She had some issues from being taking away from her mom so young, but was a great and fiercely loyal girl!

    My sister lives in LA and volunteers at Angel City Pits, a pit rescue organization out there.

    Sadly, pits, like snakes, often get an undeserving and bad rap.

    Sonny is my nickname from almost birth, 13 and 18 are my daughters birthdays. This is my one and only form, I think I might be the crabby guy for such a happy nickname (and old) I seen the picture thread. 🤣

    Yeah. My mom loved the named. She found as she was learning about world history in high school. I hated it because I am in the south and black. Soooooooooo you can imagine why I hated it. It was either the mispronunciation of it or how did you get that name. Like I had a choice in the matter. But I know love my name. It’s uniqueness. It’s not being the norm.

    Well, kids think everything their parents do is lame no matter what. Being different when you're young is a curse, when you're older - a blessing. I've never heard it before as a first name before. 7,000 cool points to you! Or should I say, your mom. ;)

    She never lets me live that down. That and her favorite saying

    “No matter how old you get, I’m still going to be older. “
