My Porn Name

I'm not talking about Chippy Tollgate, my porn named formed by taking the my first pet's name as my first name and the street I grew up on as my last name. No, I'm talking if I was seriously to do porn and opt not to use my real name. I thought of it just now while walking Faithful Companion.

Ok.

Are you ready to hear it?

Okay.

It's Bruno Frei.

I'm pretty happy with it. Just as my first name and last name come from different languages (Gaelic and German), so too with my porn name. And if you point out that I'm not italian, I'd point out that I'm not welsh, either. Similarly, my given name has resonant long vowel sounds, U, O, and A. (That's including my middle name, Devoe. That's really my middle name. I swear.) And with Bruno Frei, we have U, O, and I.

Bruno Frei. As in, "Hey what's up. I'm Bruno. Bruno Frei."

Now a Google Search reveals that there actually was a Bruno Frei, and he had nothing to do with porn. Rather, he was a Viennese communist journalist who was interred by the Nazis but went on to live a long and productive life, dying in 1988. But I don't know that any Cease And Desist orders coming my way from Austria after I debut as Bruno Frei.

Right. Now all I have to do is launch my career in porn.
