Adam Ant
694,254 plays (92,703 listeners)
His name allegedly comes from the 1960’s BBC television series “Adam Adamant Lives!”. Other accounts say that he chose Adam because he had seen paintings of the Garden of Eden and wanted to live there, and Ants in parody of The Beatles. Additionally, there was a cartoon by the name of Atom Ant in the mid 60’s that might have added to the mix. Then, quite naturally, ‘adam’ and ‘ant’ conjugated is ‘adamant’, thus, “I am adamant”.
Allegedly, Queen Elizabeth II once picked Adam Ant out from a crowd and said “Oh, Adam! Is that you?”
Is any of this verified? Sounds awfully circumstantial…
