Sting
While you may have believed that “Bono” might have been a real name, there was no doubt that any respectable parent would agree to call their child “Sting”. Rather, the iconic British pop star was named “Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner” by his apparently posh folks. So, how did Sting become a thing? Well, it so happened that Mr. Sumner was wearing a yellow and black striped jersey that a band member of his said made him look like a bee. Hilarious…

Prince
You would be highly mistaken if you thought that “Prince” was not the late and great American singer-songwriter’s birth name. The beloved artist was born “Prince Rogers Nelson”. While this name might have led to much confusion when Prince was touring the United Kingdom, there are certainly few royals in the American music industry that can claim the same royal status as he did. Prince quickly rose to fame thanks to his energetic and soulful music and stage persona.
