Many years ago there floated around Usenet this "what is your porn name" meme, except they weren't called memes yet. The formula was your mother's maiden name + the street you grew up on. My mother's maiden name made me sound like an accountant rather than a porn star so I used my grandmother's instead. Hence I was Slater Bates. I started using that as a screen name for awhile and then shortened it.
