Myth: Origin of Species

by JohnOfJordan on October 2, 2008

JohnOfJordan’s alter-ego John Lacey writes about the origins of the name JohnOfJordan in a blog entry published today. He writes:

When I signed up to YouTube I adopted the moniker JohnOfJordan. People frequently ask about the origins of this name and I quickly feign for an explanation more interesting than ‘it popped into my head one day.’ John Of Jordan is John The Baptist or St. John in the Christian tradition. A remarkable stream of consciousness for someone who is patently non-religious. Even stranger still was that I found myself in a church bearing this character’s name a short while after joining.

He also writes about his experiences on YouTube and his desire to be known as ‘John, not John: Token Australian.’
