A slightly off topic question...sorry
But I've always wondered if Rush's name is Rush. Or is it short for something, Russell? Reginald? variation of Ross? Just curious. I've never heard this English name before.

Rush is actually Rush III. His father and grandfather were also named Rush. Probably an old family surname.
