Artist Name...

After playing around with a few names we have finally decided on a name which we feel suits our artist. We wanted to do something similar to 'P!nk' who challenges the connotations of her 'name' as she doesn't fit any of the connotations of the work 'pink'. For our artist we want to challenge gender stereotypes to conform to our genre so we want a name which has male connotations as well as female connotations. It must also be edgy to engage the target audience.

We chose the name 'Syd Marie' as it has male connotations and by adding 'Marie' on the end it instantly feminises the male persona which is created by the 'Syd' part of the name.
