......a Scottish Folk-Rock Band. Seriously. I was doing an internet search on a favorite artist, Treana and I came across this website . And I thought to myself, hhhmmmm! Well, out of curiosity I did a search on the name / band and came to find out quite a many interesting things such as the name means this .

I hope this doesn't despoil the SBG image or persona ! :D

Medic, the band was called something else until their lead singer, Coinneach, died. They changed their name to honor him.

(Odd note: One of my users is a Brit. He sez "Coinneach" in the UK is about as common as "Jim" here. Go figure.)

As for the SBNG... I resemble that remark! :D
 
Okay, now I want to see you singing and dancing in that cooking apron while baking cookies! Hey, the name profile (like horoscopes) can't be wrong, can it?

Coinneach, one of my users is Irish, from Ireland and hasn't been here all that long. When I first started lurking here and saw your name, I wrote it down, asking her how to pronounce it. She said she'd never seen seen the name in all her life. Go figure :confused: . I guess it must be limited to Scotland and England.
