Moby

 

The real name of electronic-music star Moby is Richard Melville Hall. His parents gave him the nickname Moby. Why? Because Moby is the great-great-grand-nephew of the American author Herman Melville. Herman Melville wrote the classic book Moby Dick in 1851. In the book, Moby Dick is the name of a huge whale.
