Cobain named the group Nirvawana because he wanted a name that was kind of beautiful or nice and pretty instead of a mean, raunchy punk name. Before they became Nirvana, the band was originally known as Skid Row, Fecal Matter and Ted Ed Fred.
Nirvana sought to mix heavy and pop musical sounds and used dynamic shifts that went from quiet to loud.
