Hey guys, how about John TROLLCANE! It's like this troll, with a cane! Man, it's crazy how substituting letters into words can make different words.

Yeah, I've seen that Chet Faker name around. gtfo.
The one that really bugs me lately - although it's not a band parody - is Nipsey Hussle.

Surprised to hear that Kurt Vile is an actual name not a play on Mr Lotte Lenya => Kurt Weill.Wonder if his parents were aware of the composer?

In the pre-rock era, perhaps the most famous singers in Finland was named Olavi Virta. Now, "Virta" is a common Finnish surname, literally it translates to "stream". Then, in the 00s, this promising young singer broke through, with the name Olavi Uusivirta. "Uusivirta" is a rare Finnish surname, but "uusi" also means "new" in Finnish, so you can interpret this guy's name as "the new Olavi Virta". Everyone assumed it was a joke, but turns out Olavi Uusivirta is his actual birth name. (I assume his parents realized what they were doing when they named their kid "Olavi".) This is pretty much the same as if an upcoming American singer was called "Frank Newsinatra".
