Ice Cube got his name because as a kid he would always try to hang out with his older brother's homegirls. Because of that, his brother would sarcastically call him cool. One day, his brother was baggin on him and said something like, "You're so cool, you're like an ice cube." From then on, the name stuck with him.
RZA = Rakeem Zig-Zag-Zig Allah
He's given different definitions of Zig-Zag-Zig. One was wisdom, knowledge and understanding (I think), other was " It represents a point in my life where I realized I was going one way, then you get confused and go this way, then you say, “You know what? Zig was always right.”"

interesting thread!
"Take, for example, one Sean Combs, the former Puff Daddy, now P. Diddy. It seems that, in adolescence, young Mr. Diddy often resorted to puffing out his chest in an effort to disguise some unfortunate scrawniness. Combs' efforts yielded nothing more for him than an early introduction to hot air--a fateful meeting if ever there was one--and a nickname reminiscent of a large, poisonous fish of the genus Takifugu which is treasured by Japanese gourmands."
"• Snoop Dogg: The former Calvin Broadus, who looked a little long-faced as a tyke, reminded friends and family of Snoopy--you know, the pooch from Peanuts."
"• Mase: "His real name is Mason," Prez says. "And Mase was his nickname, for short."
"• Lil' Kim: "Well," Prez says of Kimberly Denise Jones, "she isn't even five feet. She's four feet and change." Fair enough."
"• Chingy: Now, this one stumps our panel for a minute. But Hall puts it this way: "He was all about getting paid--the chingy, the jackpot.""
