Common?


I mean, seriously....


Common?


Let me get this straight...


Lonnie goes to his agent:


Lonnie: "I got a great stage-name for myself!"

Agent: "Oh yeah? Whats that?"

Lonnie: *Lonnie folds his arms, tilts his head back* "Common"

Agent: "Well thats a very.... UNcommon name! *Wink* :D"



I mean, seriously....

His career started in the early 90's as a rapper by the name of Common Sense.
As his popularity grew, He was later sued by a reggae band and forced to shorten his name to Common.

LOL It definitely pays off to do your homework before coming up with a name - make absolutely sure that the one you're about to use isn't already in use somewhere else! Poor Common Sense didn't follow this little piece of common sense and ended up humbled as a result.

Is this a name or an adjective?

I despair for the literacy in the coming generations.

Why not give yourself a number instead of a name? How about an X to denote that one is illiterate?

Xzibit already has that X locked down

Yeah, in the early 90's he should've definitely googled that name first to make sure there wasn't any obscure group out there who already used that name... oh wait.

Research may not have been as fast as it is when you can simply Google something now, but it's not like it didn't exist. A little effort and he could have avoided having a name that's a synonym for simpleton.
