Bono got his name from a hearing aid store called, BONOVOX, in the Republic of Ireland. Interestingly, just as Native Americans have drinking problems in their genes, Irish people are often deaf due to genetic defects. There are many deaf people in Ireland and a lot of Irish hearingaid stores.
Bono doesn't have to wear bonovox, and nor does he have to wear those awful glasses that look like they're from startrek.
