My own Wikipedia handle is "Shocking Blue", the name of a Dutch rock band that I have been particularly enamored with for several decades. “That is not the name I was born with, that is my Wikipedia name. Some day all of us will have special names," as Brian O'Blivion might have put it; he is the "television prophet" who appears in the incredible 1983 David Cronenberg horror movie Videodrome that features among its cast members James Woods and Blondie's Debbie Harry.
