Was sitting in my Las Vegas office in 1999 and wanted a catchy name for a new gambling forum(Majorwager I think)............my original and current name at TheRx at the time was Strut888 and I changed that after the name Fishhead caught on quickly and took the internet by storm at this new forum and a couple others.
No idea how the name came to me, don't remember.

There's a They Might Be Giant's song called Fish Heads. Perhaps you heard it playing in the background at some point during that time period and your subconscious picked up on it?

My great uncle was on the Bataan Death March. Not a fan of fishheads to say the least
