what's your "Blues Name?"

i'm Screamin' Sugar Bailey, not bad;

by a different method (physical infirmity + middle name + childhood street) i'm Blind Willie Eason.

how about your Pope name? the first word of your school's latin motto + the number of times you've been arrested :D
 
There's many a different method for establishing your "blues name" such as choose an infirmity, a fruit and a president's name *Usually meant to be a US president, otherwise you'd end up with names such as Gout Guava De Gaulle.

According to the chart recently posted I'm [Name Withheld 'Cause It Sucked]. I've had better blues names in the past and I'll stick with those.
