Anyone here named thier kid after a bassist?

[D.A.R.K.]

nah,
i'd name my children after something important, like a parent
or relative.

 

[andrew_over]

Well not my kid, but my friend growing up, his name is


Geddy Lee Lyons



(his parents met at a Rush concert)

 

[Illbay]

Just attented the christening of my very good friend's son, who they've chosen to name Miles Davis Robson,...

Named my first son Gallien Krueger <lastname>.

Prolly not what you're looking for, though.

 

[Howlin' Hanson]

My first son's middle name is Brian. You may remember the first bass player for the Beach Boys; he wrote a bit, too....

 

[fusionbass81]

I am going to name my son Ampeg, and my daughter Essex (SX for short).

 

[Fassa Albrecht]

Ten points to anyone who called thier son Flea..

...and a billion points for anyone who calls their kid Geddy!


I actually like that idea...

The better thing to do would be to name your child after a bass.
Any kid named, e.g., Precision or Stingray is going to be badass.

stingray would be an awesome name youd sound like some sort of bond villain or a superhero/villain.

sterling is a name.... isnt it?

incidently I hate MM basses

 

[Lammchop93]

I know I'm jumpin ahead, but I decided I'm naming my first boy Cliff. Girl, it would be Cristina (thats right no H) after the singer of the band Lacuna Coil. I hope you all know where Cliff came from.

 

[mustang-monk]

you kid would be screwed if you like a brand that just uses numbers to name their basses.

"HI BTB1035E"

or if you picked one specific model

"Hi American Vintage &#8216;75 Jazz Bass"

I know I'm jumpin ahead, but I decided I'm naming my first boy Cliff. Girl, it would be Cristina (thats right no H) after the singer of the band Lacuna Coil. I hope you all know where Cliff came from.

Richard?

I know a man named Jamerson. His parents had a wager over who got to name him, and his motown-loving father won.

He's really enjoyed his name and named his son the same thing.

 

[Frag]

I named my bass after my wife's nickname, so it's called Peachy

 

[cloren]

MIM would be an awesome first name, but may raise questions as to the child's conception

 

[Bighead Kid]

Ya I'm naming my son Count Basie

 

[MikeBass]

My cats are named Miles & Frank.
Miles for...do I really have to tell ya?!?!??
And Frank for Frank Zappa.

 

[nonconformist]

My father named me Paul.

He plays bass and guitar... and he may have enjoyed the occasional British Rock/Pop band...

 

[Elemetal]

My middle name is Sterling. Ha. Never thought of the bass till now. It was supposed to be my first name but my mom made my dad put it as my middle name. My dad doesn't even play instruments or ever hear of brand names or anything either.

 

[EddieN]

Don't know anyone that's done this but got a friend who named his son Johnny after Cash, Ramone, Thunders & Rotten (he's never mentioned Entwistle). Another guy I know gave his daughter the middle name Holley after the real spelling of Buddy Holly's last name.

 

[Nino Valenti]

My son is named after one of the BEST BASS PLAYERS......


.....in my house!!!!


His name... Anthony Valenti.
