Pirates!

The post about Defoe's book has got me thinking. I think that we should all take on Pirate names in this style. One real name (e.g. Black Bellamy) and one descriptive name (e.g. The Pirate with a Scarf).

For me, I'm going with Snake B. Malcoeur, The Pirate with a Keen Interest in Severe Weather.

So, let's hear 'em!

Hey! Thanks for the links, NH! I got a good one: Dirty Anne Flint. But I have to stick with Snake B. Malcoeur. It just suits me.
