Waaaaay back when, the company my dad worked for allowed users to determine their own usernames, except for the programmers. The programmers, they gave obscene usernames to, so that none of the regular users could have them.
Dad, whose initials are DAM, had a username of "damn".
I can _just_ see that policy being put in place today, twenty-five years later.
