Answers.com defines "alliteration" as:
"The repetition of the same sounds or of the same kinds of sounds at the beginning of words or in stressed syllables, as in "on scrolls of silver snowy sentences" (Hart Crane). Modern alliteration is predominantly consonantal; certain literary traditions, such as Old English verse, also alliterate using vowel sounds."
I was once credited on a project as Rockin' Roxanne Starr and, of course there was Jack "The King" Kirby.
O.K., folks, here's the challenge...
...either alliterate your name or come up with a really loooooooooong alliteration about anything at all.

From his cage, Kevin catapulted the crumb and line atop a keg of Cuban Kale. The same place where Captain Cree kept his key. Kevin waited, and the crimson cat crept back in to the captives' quarters. It clawed its way up the keg--and chomped on the custard crumb.
" The crew would choke down the crude cuisine, complete with crustacean critters. "Could Captain Cree conceivably conjure chaos from his crypt?
Kevin pulled the line, crashing the cat, keg and key. The cat cried and crossed the room. Kevin crouched and caught Cree's key. The captive crew was free!
Catching his cat's cries, Cree came clunking in to the quarters. He cried when confronted by his uncaged crew, "The cat! That criminal cat! Could it be you?!"
They quickly cut Cree with a cutlass. They cut him from cabbage to cojones. Now, the crimson carnivorous cat, consumes a cuisine quite crunchier than caviar--the contents of Captain Cree.

Nah. I think I'm done. The crew is free. Captain Cree is dead. And the cat is well-fed. Wouldn't mind an illustration, though." @bx1 said:
