Talk:Shakespear's Sister

I'm fairly sure the correct name is 'Shakespears Sister', with no punctuation - that's how the albums were credited at the time. As it's a moot point and not too significant, I'll set up a redirect rather than moving the page. (Reason: I couldn't find this article). --kingboyk 02:45, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Why the following mention - "The term Shakespeare's Sister first appeared in a section of the Virginia Woolf work......"? The title of this article does not have a third letter e in Shakespear, but the Woolf work does. There is no explanation why or if the Woolf work influenced the band name.

 * The story I heard behind the spelling of the name was that they were going to be called "Shakespeare's Sister", but that the person designing their logo misspelled the name, and they decided to leave it that way (particularly as the spelling of the name wasn't standardised in Shakespear's (sic ;)) day). Better to confirm that fact before including in the article though. Fourohfour 16:21, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

The correct spelling is Shakespears Sister, they took the name from The Smiths song "Shakespeare's Sister" and changed around the spelling to distinguish themselves from the songPaul75 21:06, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
