And here I was thinking that C64 was a reference to the ol' Commodore 64 computers...

MC Optimus Rhyme

And he's not a band or a duo but he deserves some recognition for being the fungus that grows on Aunt Margie's soppy diaper left in embarrassment in the corner of the linen closet: Enrique Iglesias. Single-handedly denigrating music as a whoile with one Jennifer Love-Hewitt video. Fucking pussy.

Oh, this thread is about names, isn't it...
Okay, well... nothing beats my names for my band if I ever have a band: Naked Twister or Right-hand Cramp.

Made that one up a while ago. I'm not sure if anyone is using it but it seems like an almost obvious pun. If I ever start MC'ing I'm gonna use it.

FYI, Fine Young Cannibals took their name from a 1960 Robert Wagner/Natalie Wood movie, and Pink is taken from Mr. Pink in "Reservoir Dogs," according to the Muchmusic Spotlight. :)

Is it? From what I know it's taken from the quote "54-40 or fight," from U.S. president James Polk...referring to the expansion he wanted of the United States.
