Since stitch asked, the name comes from my time spent playing MMO games in the passed. The name I used there was completely randomly generated and spelled Selizi. I chose to pronounce it with the first I being silent of of course no one knew that unless I told them.
Eventually folks figured out if you switched the E and the L it read like Sleezy, and the name stuck. One of the guys I played with used the name Minirodd, he was a rather strange guy. A black man that liked to play MMORPGs, Scuba dive, and hunt wild pigs. Anyway, all this taking place in my high school years, there came a day that my parents were calling me from work while I was home and playing my videogames wanting me to look for stuff on their desk and what not. Thinking this was rather funny Minirodd commandeered the acronym SSDD, meaning same shit different day of course, and dubbed me Sleazy Spade, Desk Detective. Well the second part didn't quite stick as well as the first but he never forgot it, and quite often called me SSDD.
I responded by taking his name of Minirodd, and applying a bit of humor along with the fact he may have been the most unusual black man I've ever met, named him Minius Roddius. Cesear would be proud. Minirodd loved the name and afterward spoke of himself only in third person.
And just for the record no I'm not a racist he was just odd. You gotta admit hunting pigs is a really really redneck-ish passtime.
