Why Sting? What's he hiding?
And why do we accept calling him Sting?
Same goes for Bono....

Just makes me think "you f######t... Go away".

Yes it is branding. You could also argue that Bono went meta and parodied himself when he invented [url= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoo_TV_Tour#Bono.27s_stage_personae ]his alter-egos of The Fly and Mr MacPhisto[/url]

You're drunk aren't you?
Have you never been interesting enough to have a nickname?
How about you, TooTall?
Just nicknames innit, no dramas.

'Alpin' Isn't that a type of shredded cardboard some folk eat for breakfast? 😆
Isn't Sting's name related to a black and yellow jumper he use to wear?? Bono is just a #### though.
Bono is from a record shop, I think.
Prize for best b.o.n.o acronym.
Body Odour Niffy Orifice.
Bono is from a hearing aid shop - Bona Vox.
The 'Bono' is the standard unit of smugness, Sting registers 23KB on the scale.
Didn't Sting aquire the name from wearing a yellow and black jumper in the early days??
I suppose you think that John Wayne, Marilyn Monroe , Elton John Freddie Mercury and others were born with those names.
I'll see your Sting and raise you a Paxo.

Big- L
Snoop-Dog
KRS-1
LL-Cool-J
Royce Da 5’9
Pit 10
Mode XL
The list is literally endless.
And you think mainstream rock/pop acts have moronic monikers? Those names sound like models of plastic vaginal stimulators.
Not so much of a sting, just a little pr**k.
He is a vastly over-rated (mostly by himself) singer who used to front a heavily marketed and decidedly average band.
He 'sang' in a teeth-grindingly awful faux Jamaican falsetto before developing a bit of a lentil obsession, followed rapidly by metamorphosis into a sort of Bono-lite.
A lot of the time he comes across ok ish, but there is always a background note of superiority in him. 'I know the truth, are you cool enough to be let in on the secret' type stuff.
He is very easy to ignore.
The Regular Show has it. 😀
I was never sure whether U2 were better than The Police. But on reflection, I think U2 have The Edge.
"The Edge"
What was he on when he came up with that?
"The" FFS!
Hey, if it's good enough as a middle name for Kermit then who are we to judge.
Op,
Ya, they are zombie maggots but not as parasitic as some of the bureaucratic jobworth. This group earned their wealth by leading/herding the zombie maggots and by using stoopid label names to represent them. 😈

Who pissed on your cornflakes this morning, then, and why do you care?
A very great many famous singers and performers over the decades have used stage names, it's standard practice, pretty much.

At which point in The Police's career did the heavy marketing actually occur, then?
