WHAT'S IN A NAME?

I recently found out that Wild Bill Hickock's real name was James Butler Hickock.  Wild Jim or Wild Butler would never do.  Wild Bill was perfect.  It helped make him famous.  Of course, it didn't hurt that he was a great storyteller.  Most everyone who knew him, knew that he fabricated most of the exploits for which he became famous.  He was a legend in his own time.  

Wild Bill died of a gunshot wound while playing poker, at the hands of his opponent who was a lousy card player.  Hickock was thought to be bluffing but was actually holding a hand that has become known as the "dead man's hand" - two pair, black aces and eights.   (When I worked for Price Brothers, we had a salesman in Columbus who would often reply to my question "How ya doin?" by saying "Aces and eights".  At the time, I never knew what he was talking about. - RIP)

This all makes me think I could have been famous if only I had a better name.  A name that people would remember.  I already have the audacious story-telling part down pat and, luckily, I don't play cards.  If you can come up with a good name I could use, let me know - time is running out.  

BTW - Wild Bill Hickock's girlfriend was known as Calamity Jane even though her real name was Martha Canary.  She was 15 years younger than Wild Bill, a part-time prostitute and, like Bill, an inveterate story teller.  If only I had a neat name like that.
