It's just an unusual street name, like Mr. Pink or Mr. White or Huggy 
Bear. Abel gives you the option of a new name or a "code name" if you're 
joining under the foreign-legion deal, and so the guy who became 
Eponymous chose that name to use with TNI.

If there are further reasons for choosing that name, Eponymous hasn't 
divulged them to Abel or anyone else.
