Question
How did the Spice girls come up with their name??
Hi LittleWiggle,
In the beginning, they called themselves "Touch", but later on realized that they were all quite different from each other, so thought of the name "Spice", but the name was taken already, so they changed it to "Spice Girls". (and this was after they dropped their initial management group who they were unhappy with). And then a UK magazine /TV show gave them their individual nicknames basing it on their personalities when they first appeared in public.
I hope this helps!
Sincerely,
Angie

Melanie C (aka Sporty Spice). I can answer things like: -who her idols are -what kind of music she likes -details of her first solo album -her sexual preferences -how she likes to relax -why she likes fame -her and the future of the Spice Girls. I also have contact with a woman on their management team, so I have access to information that others may not have access to.

Oh, see my Madonna profile for this one.
