    It is a modern phrase born from social media, specifically twitter.
    The handle is the text after the '@' sign in the user ID you get from twitter and use to sign your tweets.

    And since the nr of Twitter users have grown explosively it is hard to get a good and simple handle like 'BossMan' or 'Angel' it has to be more complex than that 'bossman1234567890' or 'AngelOfTheMorningqwerty'

    Her is a page about How To Get A Good Handle

  • It was  an allusion to the Tull song "Locomotive Breath".

  • No.  From what I have read "Old Charlie" refers to Darwin.  When he proposed the and expanded the idea of evolution he stole the handle on human existence held by creationists.
