Ever since I was a little kid, (about second grade)I used to put a five pointed "star" in between my first and last name. I just thought it was cool, for a little kid thinking. Later, I sign a lot of unimportant paperwork with a "R" and "N" as my first and last intial of my name, with the star in between. When you say that abbreviation fast, it sounds like "Arstaren". Simple word play.
