1) "Slim" - a less known, slimmer variant of the banjo. Curiously enough, even though his parents named him Guitar Jones, he never touched his namesake instrument.

2) "Fuck" (though they had to edit it for commercial reasons).

3) Bing Crosby. He never acknowledged the paternity suit.

19. Back in the early 90's there was a band from the UK called The Charlatans. They were sued by a US band with a similar name, and so were forced to change theirs for stateside releases. They liked the "Charlatans" part, so they decided to append their name with something that would let people know that they were, in fact, from the UK, and not the US. What was the clever solution that this band ultimately decided upon?
