My James Bond persona: 008.
(I made and carried a business card in the fourth grade that identified me as British Secret Service Agent 008; I little thought how a business card did not quite fit the secret agent persona, and yet how "secret" was Bond, James Bond, about his identity? My foolishness was cultural and of the day, I'd say.)
