"...two US blues musicians inspired the young Syd Barrett to choose the name Pink Floyd. Even though at a later time Barrett often claimed that the name was transmitted from an overhead flying saucer, the version that Syd Barrett took the first names of Pink Anderson and Floyd Council to create the band name seems to be a lot more believable."
