I love khaotickharma's listing of the members of Marilyn Manson. Their first names are all famous female starlettes and their last names are those of serial killers.The lead singer of Anti-Flag is Andy Flag.And then of course there's the Sex Pistols, which contained Johnny Rotten and Sid Vicious.And one of my favourite bands, the Germs, have members who go by Darby Crash, Lorna Doom, and Pat Smear.The lead singer of X-Ray Spex was Poly Styrene.The lead singer of X was Exene.The lead singer of the Pixies was Black Francis, whose real name was Francis Black.That's all I can think of at the moment. A lot of punk rock bands (the real ones, not the fake ones you see on MTV) have nicknames like that, especially those from the 70's and 80's.

Total ditto on Marilyn MansonThe band has such cool names. And honestly I really like the music. It just sounds so different and unique. I don't listen to it often, but I do like them.

"Synyster" is an interesting name!
It remined me of Ryan Sinn of The Distillers and Angels and Airwaves.
