Just attented the christening of my very good friend's son, who they've chosen to name Miles Davis Robson, which I personally think is excellent, and not one of those names you'd hate your parents for landing you with!
But it got me wondering, has anyone followed, or know anyone who has followed, a similar path, be it with a musician in general, or a bassist?
Ten points to anyone who called thier son Flea..

My surname is Wadge (pronounced wedge). Her name is suzanne but shortened to Sue. Pronounce Sue and Wedge together quickly and there is an unpleasant image.

Any kid named, e.g., Precision or Stingray is going to be badass. |

I would never name a child after a bass player.
You can ask my little girl, Fender....
