The name "Funketeer" is derived from both "Funk" and "Musketeer", the meaning of both terms together would mean "Musketeer of Funk"

Funk: is a mixture of soul, rhythm & blues, and jazz. Heavy on the bass and drums with scratchy guitar riffs and choppy keys mixed in. In the late 70's and early 80's, funk made it possible to dance without having to deal with the dreaded "disco" phase.

George Clinton "The Godfather of Funk"

Musketeer: When the young Louis XIII ascended the throne, he ordered that the Carabineers be armed with muskets. This elite troop then became known as the Musketeers.

ABSOLUTV

my name starts with a V

& i really like vodka

[appsolu:t] - V&S Sprit AB now had a product and a package. What they didn't have was a name. The original product was called "Absolut Rent Bränvin", which was modified to "Absolute Pure Vodka", a name that for legal reasons could not be registered in the US - "absolute" was a common adjective and could not be a trademark. The final "e" was dropped removing the legal obstacle and adding an extra Swedish touch.

"Pure" also posed legal problems and was removed. The slogan "Country of Sweden" was added between the main elements to stress the vodka's origin and its tradition of purity.

Absolut Vodka is a contemporary phenomenon. First exported in 1979, Absolut Vodka quickly soared to one of the best-selling premium vodkas in the world today.

It is an overnight success...an overnight success since 1879.

It was then vodka was first sold under the name Absolut. Yet, Swedish vodka has its roots in the 15th century when Swedes first started distilling spirits called "bränvin", literally "burnt wine". Made from grain or imported wine, these spirits were originally used mostly as medicine and for making gunpowder. The first alcohol restrictions had nothing to do with sobriety; distilled spirits were needed for Sweden's war machine.

Human nature being what it is, however, people soon found spirits had a number of more recreational uses. By the 17th century, the distilled spirit that we today refer to as vodka had become a national drink.

The phenomenal success of Absolut Vodka has only one precedent: the success of the man who introduced it.

Successful businessman at 10 and entrepreneur at 14, Lars Olsson Smith controlled one third of all the vodka in Sweden while he was still learning to shave. For almost half of the 19th century he was known as "The King of Vodka". In 1879, he introduced a new kind of vodka called "Absolut Rent Bränvin" (Absolute Pure Vodka) produced using a revolutionary new distillation method. The method was called rectification, a method we still use today.

Without knowing it, Lars Olsson Smith had introduced what exactly a century later, would become Absolut Vodka.

to really clarify....

EDUARDO m Spanish, Portuguese

Pronounced: ay-DWAWR-do

Spanish and Portuguese form of EDWARD

EDWARD m English, Polish

Pronounced: ED-wurd

Means "rich guard", derived from the Old English elements ead "rich, blessed" and weard "guard". Saint Edward the Confessor was the king of England shortly before the Norman Conquest. Because of his popularity this name remained in use after the conquest (most other Old English names were replaced by Norman ones), and was even the name of eight subsequent kings of England. Edward is also one of the few Old English names to be used throughout Europe.
