This question has come up before and I'm sure I answered it back then.
I had to vote other because, while Tank obviously isn't my given name it is a name that I've had since my college days and several people I know still use it interchangebly with my given name.
When Î chose to write fanfiction I found that someone else had already written a couple of stories under my given name so I had to choose something else to play in folcdom with. Using Tank became a natural option.
Tank (who also wanted to avoid all the Beach Boy jokes and references that he's had to endure all his life)
