Long ago, in 2013, I started a post about how I chose the nom de whatever “Nick.” Or “N.”
As you may know, Nick, or N., is not the name my parents gave me.
I could tell you a crazy story, about a couple next to whom I had sex, the man of which couple was “Nick.”
I won’t, though. Instead, I’ll just refer you to this clip from “The Sure Thing,” which was, more than that couple, the inspiration for my name.
I always wondered. I never asked. And now I know!
