When ever Ville does an interview it's usually with Mige(Bass player's nickname) ; the two are never not seen together in photos! Lily Lazer(Guitarist's nickname) is a huge fan of the guitar legend Jimi Hendrix and John Lee Hooker, he also had a one off side project called Daniel Lioneye which they recorded while they were making "Deep Shadows and Brilliant Highlights" it featured Mige on bass, Lily Lazer on guitar and lead vocals, Ville Valo on drums and various members from The Skreppers and New Rose.
10. Finally, what did HIM formerly stand for?

Answer: His Infernal Majesty

Orignally the band were called His Infernal Majesty because Ville Valo loved horror movies and people thought His Infernal Majesty to be a satanic moniker and so the band shortened it to HIM and the band liked it because it was easy to pronounce in every language. Later, they said that the initials didn't stand for anything.
