It would be fun if you can share just in two lines; what made you select the "user name" in Chess.com; particularly those names that do not identify you in any way!
Here is my reason:
I love a game of Chess and am always amazed at how many different "moves" could be made in the 64 squares!

One of my favorite movies-Braveheart. When William Wallace is a boy his uncle is going to war and William wants to come and says "I can Fight"(Scottish accent).
If you picked up on this you are definitely Braveheart fan.
