Interesting question. How to answer without sounding pretentious?
The name was given to me by 'Red'. Others started using it and I began writing under it.
What does it mean to be Fearless? Many things, perhaps contradictory, for names go beyond labels.
Being Fearless can be about being afraid, but walking through your fear like it's just not there. It could also be about circumstances not being important, but that your responses to them are.
Who knows? You'd have to ask those that call me by that name, but I suspect the answers will not be consistent.
Haha, I have never been described like that before! You have just reminded me of a song/poem by Gil Scott-Heron - 'Three Miles Down' - which is actually about coal mining. Think i'll play it now.
