Well first of all my name's Elliot. My parents always had wierd nicknames for me a lot i don't, and choose not to remember. For the longest time however my mom called me Elliboy (el- EE- boi). My mom started dating someone with two sons, who i now consider my step-bros, the younger one didn't like this nickname. He started to call me Elli-bonus. Eventually it got shortened to just Elbonus to make it easier to say. When i went to make my first screen name for AIM elbonus was already taken. So i decided to go with elbo. And from then on it just stuck. To this day i am still occasionally called elbo, and even bo jackson for some reason.
