An Extra Guess or Two

Monkling posted about names Sunday, and in her response to my comment, asked what our real names are and how I came up with our nicknames.  I'll reveal how I came up with our nicknames, but first I want to know how you think I came up with our nicknames.  So, where do you think Lanny, Army, and Linus come from?  I'm always curious where others think these names come from.

Well after you explained how Lanny is pronounced, I'm thinking it's straight off the title of your blog. Linus... I'd have to guess your daughter had a favorite blanket like Linus in Peanuts that you couldn't rip from her if you tried. Army... well my first guess would have been he's an Army doc. I know! He got rejected from the military because he's got flat feet and then he became a dr. so he can find a cure for flat feet so no one else will ever have to face that kind of rejection ever again.

No?

I am of the same line of thinking as Monkling. Very curious to the real reasons!
