“I called it Kinko’s because of my nickname — because I had this really kinky hair. If you think about it, the first thing a baby learns is ‘Googoo, gaga,’ and if you think of good businesses like Kodak, Xerox, Google, people remember consonants — which was why Kinko’s was a good name. But really I had this big head of curly hair and before being called ‘Kinko’ I was ‘Pube Head.’ So I thought Kinko’s was better than Pubo’s.” PeopleIfsThinkingFirstsBigsRememberNamesHairBabyGoogleNicknamesGood BusinessKinkyGagaConsonantsBig HeadsXeroxCurly HairKodakKinky Hair Author:Paul Orfalea
