Bates has said he chose the name "for the sound of it… I was reading the Huxley book when I met Pete… It sounded perfectly nice.", but Bates has also acknowledged an allusion to the "biblical myth" of Samson, saying, "I feel attracted by religion. I feel that people don’t pay enough attention to the spiritual side of their life; it is a very interesting side of the human psychism and it fascinates me.".
