RE: I wonder if this name is intentional-Nobsound!

digda beat,

Well, there are two homonyms at play here, having quite different meanings. The English slang for the gentleman vegetable is "knob", whereas a "nob" is one of the upper class. You might have heard of "hobnob"- mingle with the elite.

So a "nobsound" might be the sound of snoring from a box at the Royal Opera, Convent Garden.

Cheers,

Bambi B
