I personally don't like to use 'the Clown' or 'the Magician' on my name 
because it is too limiting. For the same reason, I don't like to use any 
balloon, twist(er) type names either.

My last name is Zieglar, so growing up I was always ZIGGY. I didn't pick it, 
it just fell to me. I didn't want to use that name, mostly because it is 
already a common nickname (thx to a comic strip and Freda the Travelling 
Lady). So alot of people already know of a ZIGGY, and that is who they would 
think of. I have since passed that name on to my daughter (who spells it 
ZIGEE).

I use KNARF (silent K, just like when you cut your Knee with a Knife), which 
is simply Frank (my first name) backwards. I feel it express's my innermost 
beingness at harmony with the universe, and the love which exudes from all 
to all that is in all for all and by all.

Uhh, actully, I think it sounds funny and is not going to limit what I do. 
Thanks to Pinky and the Brain, many kids already know it and like it, once I 
help them with the pronuciation. I use the same name no matter, what I'm 
doing. That way it's Knarf the 'Fill in the Blank'.

I can always (mostly) act the same, regardless of my apperance (clown, 
street clothes, or any other uniform or costume). Or regardless of what I'm 
doing i.e. balloons, magic juggling, or just plain silliness. I am always 
KNARF no matter who I'm being!!??? I also have only one business card for 
KNARF, not a half-dozen different ones for different things.

I hope this helps you Kram Llams, and anybody else!
