was Paul Hewson named after the Apostle Paul?

or the Paul with the ox? or is it just a random name the Hewson's chose?

Dunno... but i think we can assume all Bono's kids' names are consciously Biblical, at least.

Wasn't his mother told by a psychic that she would have a son named Paul and he would be famous? Or am I just getting really confused because I haven't watched Legends recently?

Who knows?

ahoy hippy, indeed she saw a psychic, but she said that Bono's parents would have a child whose name began with 'P' who would be famous. *feels like a nerd for remembering that...*

Maybe after they were told that, they needed a 'P' name, or maybe it was a friend or family member's name....who cares really, none of us know him so well to call him his real name, so let us concentrate on Bono.
