    Well since I got that tattoo in '92 I have referred to it as Stickman or The Pearl Jam Stickman. I came home one day after getting it done and my mom said "a stickman, really"? Little did she know....

    My dad said my tattoo looked like a cheerleader with a boner.

    dude...its most definitely Alive guy. At least in the 90's and early 2000's. Stickman?

    Finally. Someone who knows. Officially they might call it stickman, but it's always will be the "alive guy"
    The name Stickman has no reference to pearl jam. Alive guy references the song Alive and the the feeling of Pearl jams music

    well, the band/fan club themselves call it the Stickman. sometimes varied with Alive Stickman or Pearl Jam Stickman. before today, never once heard it referred to as alive "guy".

    I've never heard it called Alive guy until this thread. Always stickman.

    (Side note: Wouldn't Jeremy be more appropriate than Alive guy ... Arms raised in a V).

    I've always preferred "Alive Guy."

    Jeremy would not be more appropriate, as it was the cover art of the Alive single.

    yes, for sure, but it was the art for the alive single, and the art has the word "alive" in between the feet.

    Never heard "Alive Guy" before. But now in my head I'm singing Alice in Chains's "Sickman" as "Stickman."

    I've never ever heard it called Alive Guy until now (and I don't like it - Stickman it is ;) ).

    When the illustration first appeared, and was on the cover of the alive single, fans didn't have a official name for it. So it was known as the "Alive guy".

    The name Stickman has no reference to pearl jam. Alive guy references the song Alive and the the feeling of Pearl jams music
    If it is "officially" called Stickman...isn't it "officially" Stickman?

    I feel like I'm taking crazy pills, people!

    My vote, for what it matters, is STICKMAN. Officially speaking, of course.
