Summary
This episode uncovers the etymologies behind the names of style icons from screen, stage, catwalk and beyond. Looking into Karl Lagerfeld's last name reveals the reason we call beer lager, while a cabaret song inspired Coco Chanel's iconic moniker. Lenny Kravitz's surname traces back to Slavic roots, and Rihanna's name has roots in either Welsh or Arabic. Grace Kelly's name was popularised by the Puritans, and Naomi Campbell's means pleasant. Listen for the name meanings of Audrey, Bowie, Twiggy, Armani and Bjork.
