I think most people know mine is the protagonist from Ayn Rand's Anthem.

I still think it was a great book, and it was an important one in opening up alternative views at a time when I was I guess more of a Socialist than anything else.

First thing that came into mind. No real reason why. Oddly enough I rarely wear hats.
 
I refuse to believe that your name did not come from Men Without Hats, who famously did the Safety Dance.
 
Haha...perhaps subconsciously. I was aware of the group (and song) in 2005, though I wasn't listening to it/them at the time of sign up.

We can dance if you want to, we can leave your friends behind. Cause if your friends dont dance, and if they dont dance, well they're no friends of mine!
