Band Name Origins:
- From interview with Gavin Millar: "When we were starting a band in school, myself and Euros and John, who's now left, we were thinking of a name, and trying to think of a really cool name, but we just ended up with crap names, so we thought "ah f*** it", we might as well stick with the most ridiculous crap name we could think of, because we never thought we'd go for this long or whatever. So then John came up with a name, I think he found Gorky, but it was meant to be the Gawky spelling, as in someone who's a bit awkward and Zygotic from the dictionary or from a biology lesson and then Mynci is just a funny way of spelling monkey! So we thought yeah, we'll go with that, and so we've stuck with it ever since." Nearest translation of the name- "dimwit reproductive monkey" Submitted by: mr vlad
Stupid Band Names:
- The most successful group without a top 40 hit. No-one, not even in the band, knows what the name means. Let's start with Gorky. It's probably a name; it is showing posession and there is no similar word in the dictionary. Zygotic could refer to Zygote (the last word in the dictionary), a firtilized egg cell. Mynci could be Mycellium, the threads making up the black bit of a mushroom. Although I have all this evidence a question needs to be asked. Why? Submitted by: Jakko Wakko
