CB handle
Radio persona name
A CB handle is the nickname a citizen's band radio operator uses on the air instead of their real name.
Handles often reflect personality, occupation, or self-image: Rubber Duck, Big Mama, Night Owl.
The tradition emerged from CB radio culture in the 1970s and influenced later online username conventions.
