    what makes names like The Beatles, The Turtles, The Police, REO Speedwagon, Pink Floyd, or Bon Jovi less dumb?

      They’re not all derivative of each other and they are spelled correctly.

      Bon Jovi was actually the dude’s name, by the way. (Bongiovi)

        “Beatles” is spelled correctly? It’s a horribly cheesy “Beetles but it’s music… get it?”

        Awesome band. The name was always pretty silly

        And why is it bad if they’re derivatives? Why do they need to be spelled “correctly” if they’re naming themselves? Is Bon Jovi the correct spelling of Bongiovi? Or does it really matter?
