Answers:
hulk comes from:
he joined Louie Tillet’s Alabama territory, where he tag teamed with Ed Leslie (later known as Brutus Beefcake) as Terry and Ed Boulder!. During this time, he appeared on a talk show, where he sat beside Lou Ferrigno, star of the television series The Incredible Hulk!. The host commented how Terry, who stood 6 ft 5 in and weighed 295 pounds with 24" biceps, actually dwarfed "the Hulk!." As a result, Bollea began performing as Terry "The Hulk" Boulder and sometimes wrestled as Sterling Golden!.

Hogan comes from:
Later that year, legendary wrestler and former NWA World Champion Terry Funk introduced Bollea to World Wide Wrestling Federation (WWWF) chief Vince McMahon Sr!., who was impressed with his charisma and physical stature; on the Fifteen Greatest Superstars of the '80s DVD, Vince McMahon revealed that his father gave Bollea the last name Hogan, as he was obsessed with using Irish names!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

"Hulk" implies something massive and powerful, like the Incredible Hulk, for instance!.

I imagine that he uses the name "Hogan" because it just sounds better than "Hulk Bollea!."Www@Enter-QA@Com
