Grateful Dead’s Jerry Garcia was named after Jerome Kern, the composer behind “Ol’ Man River.” Garcia later said he didn’t even like his name and avoided formal uses of “Jerome” unless he was in legal trouble or on a tax form.

“Anybody wants to believe all this crap they hear about me, it’s their problem, not mine. Because, look, man, I like people. I love people! I’m not going around telling everybody that. I try to say that my way — with my horn.” – Miles Davis
