Monkey wrench

"One theory has it that monkey wrench was originally Moncke wrench after its supposed inventor, Charles Moncke of London, England. However, it seems that the British call the monkey wrench an adjustable spanner wrench, so many etymologists discount the Moncke theory. Another theory notes that the wrench was invented by an American by the name of Monk in about 1856. As that date does coincide with the appearance of the word, some etymologists believe this theory has some merit."

Whatever the origins, it doesn't seem fair to associate monkeys with messing things up. Which leads to some soul searching I've been going through regarding calling myself the "Monkey Playing Cymbals." It's the only name I've ever really had, but it has become quite the mouthful and it is troubsome to type over and over (especially when you have cymbals nailed to your paws).

So, I've been thinking of different ways to refer to myself without giving up the essence of my essential monkey. For example, I could take the rapper approach:

MPC
Snoop MPC
Run MPC
Monkey with the cymbals on
Monk to the C
MC Playya

I don't know, but it would be kind of cool to be introduced as "MPC, the Sultan of Swing, the Species Flinging Feces, the Monkey with the Mostest, the Mank with the Spank."

Or not.
