"Tegernakô" is a song by my favorite band, Swiss folk metal ensemble Eluveitie (which also explains my nationality.) Chrigel is the name of my father in my PTs, but it's also taken from Eluveitie's singer, flutist and composer's first name, Chrigel Glanzmann.

Markus was the nickname my mother gave me when I was studying the Roman Empire back in high school and reciting the Emperors' names. I could have gone for my usual nickname, "Marco", but I felt like the rhyme would be too... "cheesy". Boy, was I wrong. I should've called my player Marco Tegernako, now that I think of it!
