What's In A Name?

[Librevore]

[SIZE="3"][COLOR="Navy"]I picked this up from another thread regarding the various nicknames that we use here in the IC Forums so I thought I would elaborate on mine - ShotoJuku.

To begin, I have been studying/teaching Japanese ShotoKan Karatedo since 1971. The founder of Shotokan - Gichin Funakoshi used the pen name of "Shoto" meaning "Pine Waves" and his style was subsequently called Shoto-Kan.

I use a derivative of ShotoKan retaining Shoto but added Juku meaning "special or private school" thus - ShotoJuku.

More on this and other useless knowledge can be found at my website - http://www.SKJF.com .

How about some of the other nicknames out there????[/COLOR][/SIZE]

Shoto, I checked out your website. Very cool! And it brought up another name question. Why is it O'Sensei Fey? I have never heard that title with the O in front before. Just curious.hilarious
