Probably just looking for the unique,  the different,  the recognizable.   For some that means a little more "out there" and extreme.    I always like catchy names,   easy to remember,  but unique.

Well, maybe for an extra $20 you can name him whatever you want.

In all seriousness, I think with the amount of names already taken, they have to get really creative to stand out. Also, not to mention that some things don't translate in other places/cultures. I didn't know anything about the meaning of drippy, for example.

Drip/py is a slang term for fashionable or cool. Usually to describe an outfit or item of clothing. Those Nikes are drippy. 

But I guess it can be used to describe people as well. Basically similar to swag. So this guy is saying he's a fashionable/cool guy. 

Sliding back toward the topic...

This is a great lesson in the importance of knowing one's market. Given the comments, no one here had heard of "drip" and "drippy" used in this way. I'll go out on a limb and say this also applies to a large proportion of the hiring population. It's never a good idea to confuse and/or turn off your intended clientele. 

Thank you, @keroscenefire for enlightening us about this new slang term.

I really prefer something that could really be a first name. Most probably it's not their REAL first name and that's fine - they're going with a name they think has some sort of sexual appeal or perhaps a name that they just like, or even the name they wish they had been given perhaps. But I'd much rather contact a guy by a first name of some sort as opposed to "Hey SexGod4U6969, how's it going?" :classic_wacko:

What does baffle me, though, are the guys that use one first name as their screenname but then introduce themselves in the body of their ad by a different first name altogether. Most likely they're changing escort names and not keeping track, but I find it annoying.

I learned 'riz' came from chaRISma but where does drippy come from

Yeah that’s the one that always gets me. Why would anyone want to be alone in a room with Jack the Ripper??!!!! 😱

Or "ripper" could mean his meat is so big and thick it would rip your hole.😏

According to one of the slang dictionaries, the expression comes from "dripping with..." as in money, style, finesse, etc. You know, like totally rad. 

I don't get it, either.
