Well now you got me wondering just where exactly "Menomena" came from, so I tried to look it up and found this paragraph on Wikipedia:

"The name "Menomena" was chosen for "the way it rolls off the tongue, sexually, or something" [3] and has no specific meaning, although it is often assumed to refer to the Piero Umiliani song "Mah Nà Mah Nà", a staple of The Muppet Show. A recent audioclip from SpotDJ had Brent sarcastically stating that the band name was a portmanteau of the words "Men" and "Phenomena"."

So I don't know, maybe a 1/2 point for that?
