So, mojo.
Pin as in Pinterest (how hipster of me)
And UK as in probably the greatest country in the world?
I pronounced it as a word "Mojopinuk", with uk pronounced as the uk in luck.
Not quite "mojopinyouukaaay".

I thought it was a Buckley reference.

I always thought it was a reference to pins (buttons, badges) that refer to Mojo magazine such as these:

and that he was from the UK.

My avatar did used to be a Mojo pin badge. It is still my profile picture. I hadn't realised until now quite how misleading that may be in itself.

It is a Jeff Buckley reference. I just didn't put much thought into my username when I signed up and I think MojoPin was taken.

I've always pronounced it "Moe-joe-pie-nuck." I will continue to do so, because it just sounds cooler.

Hehe. I think that decides it. I need to get it changed.
