My name came from this 70's soul LP I have, in one of the songs, this chorus line repeated the line 'we have to jive down' or something similiar to that..

Shamelessly cut and pasted from the last time we went through this, because I am lazy.
Mine's kind of a long story, and it has several parts, but here goes...
A buddy of mine from college actually looks like a pink monkey. He's one of those unfortunate red haired, pink skinned and orange freckled Irish guys. He has big monkey-like teeth, a big head, and he behaves pretty poorly. Not above flinging poop. Somehow, we came up with calling him The Pink Monkey.
In college, I never did any work until the night before the test or the paper was due, and I'd stay up all night, chain smoking and popping ephedrine like it was going out of style. I'd be up all night, and then go drinking once the test was over or the paper was in. I'd wind up drinking and smoking well into the night, with plenty of energy still going from the ephedrine, and I wouldn't eat anything all day. Combine a lot of booze with ephedrine, no food, and a lot of smoking of everything, occasionally I'd wind up getting a light but stupidly terrible case of nicotine poisoning, turn a nice sickly green color, and become worthless for a half an hour, crumpled somewhere with cold sweats and no motor skills.
In addition to the turning green trick, I was also blessed with the magnificent ability to have a cold, flu, germs, etc., but not to let it really bother me, and I'd just pass it along to everyone else I was around, who wouldn't usually fare as well. Kind of like Typhoid Mary. Anyway, it's theorized that the AIDS virus came from the green monkey in Africa. Whether some dude was putting his weiner where it didn't belong, or some aggressive monkey bit him, I don't recall. I guess both could very easily have happened at the same time. So my role as a carrier of disease and general unhealth also contributed to the name.
Finally, the fact that I'm always either hurt somehow, usually it's something stupid, and generally while drunk, or I've got some other lousy thing going on--a wart, hives, allergies, whatever, but I don't ever let crap like that stop me. The 'playing while injured/infected' (not unlike an AIDS bearing monkey might) angle only added to the logic of the name.
There's also a Yellow Monkey, a Brown Monkey, and a Tall Bald Monkey.
Plus, I like monkeys.

My name comes from my last name Stivason. When I signed up at hotmail the name stivason was already gone and they suggested stivason71. I used that name so it matched my email address. exciting story huh?
@dreadpyrat One of my ancestors was a famous pirate also. Petr Stivanson was a very mean, nasty and ruthless pirate.
