In the 90s I was Boatman_Charon on IRC. As happens on the internet - folks shortened the far-too-long username to boat. And one of my good buddies typoed it ‘Bota’ once, and from that day forward I was Bota instead of Boat. And being a 20 year old on IRC… I replaced the ‘t’ with a ‘7’.

I don’t know if someone told you before but bota means in some languages shoe.
It helps that I only ever wear boots ;)
