What's In A Name?

After a lot of thinking and considering, I have decided that the name I like most for the new band is: Harting Hill.  I wrote a narrative poem around 10 or more years ago.  I simply saved it and filed it away, like a lot of my other short stories.  It was about a man that gives a lift to a girl, whom may or may not have been a ghost. 

Well, I am currently reading through 'The Mistletoe Bride And Other Haunting Tales' and to my great surprise her story 'On Harting Hill' is almost exactly like a longer version of a poem.  I found the story very captivating and as a result I thought that it would make a good name.  It doesn't pidgeonhole the band to any one style and it has a nice air of mystery.  So there we are - Harting Hill will be rocking your socks off soon.

How did you come about your own band name?  Did it last or did you change it a few times before you felt happy with the moniker?
