I chose the name Radar when I was hacking in high school and everyone said I looked like Radar from M*A*S*H, and it followed me into my 20's. Strangers used to come up to me on the street and ask if I was Gary Burghoff. I finally cashed in on it by going to a surplus store and buying the exact hat and fatigues he wore in the show and the same wire framed glasses. I think I won about 10 costume contests that Halloween, some for big $$.
I also liked the name because it's a palindrome.
