But was that out of a genuine concern for the public's privacy, or the urban myth in action? |

Funnily enough I think there might just be some truth in it, not as in a pre-devised plan as much as an opportunity to take advantage of. Another thing is I'm sure when I first heard about this, on Richard and Judy segment I think, it was your first pet's name and the street you first lived in that you used, the maiden name thing, a standard security question, seems to have come later on. Unless Richard and Judy got it wrong and of course that's unthinkable. |

| Yeah, I've heard the street name one too, might have been in a similar gag which wasn't a porn name but something else. Can't recall what it was, now, unfortunately. |

My wife is Nippy Hinemoa (and no, neither are used as passwords).
My parents didn't allow pets, so no porn name for me. |

Where I come from we play the game a bit differently.
Take the name of the first pet you can remember as your first name.
For your surname take the first part of the street you can remember as your earliest home address.
My Porn name becomes...
Thumper Adastral.
Which always sounded pretty cool to me.
Greetings from Kiev |
