When festival taste turns into baby-name energy
A cheeky post on the Glastonbury subreddit — asking to “normalise naming your child after a 10/10 album” — blew up into a rapid-fire stream of suggestions, riffs, and classic-album flexing. It’s meme territory, but it also shows how many festivalgoers wear their record collections on their sleeves.
- Abbey (Abbey Road) — recognisable, musical, and actually wearable.
- Grace (Grace) — understated and rooted in a beloved album.
- Jude (Revolver / classic-era echoes) — familiar name with rock cred.
- Lemonade (Lemonade) — bold and unmistakably pop-culture forward.
- OK or Ok (OK Computer) — experimental, but probably more of a nickname move.
- Rumour / Rumours — tongue-in-cheek and very on-brand for festival storytelling.
Most replies were light-hearted — part music-nerd one-upmanship, part festival nostalgia. Threads like this are a reminder: for many people, the albums that define their late nights and muddy mornings are also the stories they want attached to their lives.
Whether anyone actually registers a birth certificate with a title-track name is another story, but expect more festival threads like this — quick, funny, and deeply steeped in the records people keep coming back to.
