Line 7:
* The story behind Children of Nova's album, ''The Complexity of Light'', involves a character named Corbin (obviously taken from "corvus", Latin for "crow" or "raven", which also gives us "corbies") who has some kind of deep association with crows.
* [[Gackt]]'s name tends to sound weird to, well... people in general. But his name has an actual meaning. Gackt Camui is a modification of Gackuto Kamui which can either mean "Divine power of music" or "Divine being made of music".
* [[ESE.S. Posthumus]]' name stands for Experimental Sounds (ES) and "posthumus" is Dog Latin for "all things past."
** Their albums often have meaningful names as well.
* Surprisingly, the guitarist in the German Rock/Pop band Tele actually does use a Fender Telecaster. Sometimes.
* Paul David Hewson was given the nickname Bono Vox. He didn't like it until he learned it was Latin for "good voice". Today he just goes by Bono.
* Cam Pipes, the [[Judas Priest (Music)|Halfored-esque]] vocalist of Canadian heavy metal band [[Three Inches of Blood|3 Inches of Blood]]. As a boy he was a choir singer.
* The Scandinavian opera singers Nina Stemme (stemme = voice) and Gisela Stille (stille = quiet) Considering the popular image of opera songs, the latter might be an inversion.
* Another from Indonesia, teen singer Aluna Sagita Gutawa, or Gita Gutawa. "Aluna sagita" can mean "the playing/singing of a song," and a track in her first album was titled after this phrase. Her dad is composer and conductor Erwin Gutawa, so this isn't that much of a coincidence.
