Here is the blues name generator from Belgium which went viral in the blues community in 2005 or 2006 as I recall. So what do you call people from Belgium? People from Wales are called Welch but I don't think that people from Belgium are called Belch.

What I thought was cool about this blues name generator is that it does not merely generate a name at random (as many do) but it will give the same result every time based on the spelling of your name- and most of the names generated are pretty cool.

People in Belgium are Belgians. But in Belgium there are also two divided groups:

Northern part, Flanders: the Flemish => speak a variation of Dutch
Southern part, Wallonia: the Walloons => speak a variation of French

Depending on which name generator I use and the format of my real name, I get my choice of:
Big Fingers Bradley
Mississippi Bill
Big Daddy Brown
Pick Pocket Fingers
Dee Hammond
Moon-Dog Burns

I'm waiting for the Jewish bluesname generator. I think I'd likely be Irritable Izzy Herscovitz, Nate "Wholesale" Goldfarb, or Sam "Lower-back-pain" Kaplansky.

LOL Mark, reminds be of the Jewish crime fighters, Bateman and Rubin.

With Passover approaching, let's not forget the greatest of all the Kansas City blues shouters "Constipated" Willy Steinberg, and his career-long drummer, "Second Marriage" Morris. When Willy shouted "OY!", the crowd always replied "VAY!!". I think Mike Bloomfield and Al Kooper once did an album with them: "Fathers and Boychiks". It was on that Chess spinoff label - Emmis Records.

Oh dear lord, it's a good thing I didn't have food in my mouth when I read that last one. (partly because I'm a huge Rosemary Clooney fan) They would have had to try out the newly-installed defibrillators in the lobby on me! Thanks!

Here is the blues name generator from Belgium...

Hey, I think that generator must have drifted out of calibration.
I entered McKinley Morganfield and got back No Soul Blades.
