    Because my female friends were dishing out nicknames and decided mine should be LovelyTom because my name is Tom and 2 of the girls fancied me.

    That is awesome Lovely Tom, can I be your friend and surely some of your loveliness will rub off me and girls will fancy me.

    On an on topic note, as a younger man I misheard the term "8-Track," when describing an antiquated playback method......ah sod it, it's because I'm a nerd.

    An unsubtle combination of 'Acid Queen' from Tommy (undoubtedly one of the best musicals ever), and Violet, just had a liking for the name and colour Violet. So hey presto...
