DarkLight Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 I was just on Imdb.com and was looking at what it said about Mika & it said his full name is Michael Holbrook Penniman Ismaili I thought it was just Michael Holbrook Penniman I've never heared anyone mention the ismaili bit so is that really his full name or is it just michael holbrook penniman?? I'm confused!!

LadyGodiva Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 huh. i just looked and that is really strange... the only thing i could possible think of it maybe thats his mums last name?
DarkLight Posted May 4, 2008 Author Posted May 4, 2008 that's exactly what I thought I've like Mika for ages & have never heared any reference to the ismaili bit so am wondering if it's correct or not?? baffling huh
babspanky Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Well, here we go again. The only thing I can say is that it is not the name he uses on any official thing I have seen.
Yoppappop Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 who cares ? he's asking for plebe to call him Mika so call him Mika !
babspanky Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 who cares ? he's asking for plebe to call him Mika so call him Mika ! So true. So we can't call him Mica then?
lollipop_monkey Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 So weird! Apparently this is common knowledge in the Spanish speaking world. Check it out: Google Search Results I wonder if it's his mum's maiden name or something, as LadyGodiva guessed. Unless someone who speaks Spanish better than I do happens to see an explanation among those results? Hrm. You learn something new every day! (PS I've changed your thread title to be a bit more specific. )
xlindee Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 he's spanish now ?? First he was half-Lebanese, half American, then he was Swedish, and now he's Spanish. Well, talking about identity mad..
Milou Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 First he was half-Lebanese, half American, then he was Swedish, and now he's Spanish. Well, talking about identity mad.. Still waiting for the day he becomes Dutch:thumb_yello:
xlindee Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Still waiting for the day he becomes Dutch:thumb_yello: Yeah, that'd be awesome:newyear:
vanessa Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 First he was half-Lebanese, half American, then he was Swedish, and now he's Spanish. Well, talking about identity mad.. The 1st two are true I don't know if the last ones :roftl:and Ismaili sounds arabic to me not spanish !:blink:
mika- I love you Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 The name "Ismali" (or whateva it was ) probs his mums maiden name. Well... thats what I think
MegPL Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Yeah, that'd be awesome:newyear: ok girls...you deserve the truth... he's POLISH
greta Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Ismaili....I like its sound why don't we discuss his religious beliefs also? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ismaili really, the man should quickly release some interview/music/whatever.. *return to vote for the Sexy Pop Men challenge, because the look is the most important part of a singer*
KiteKat Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 arabic family name to me.... Ismail =(Ishmael)=Samuel=etc.... the Hebrew variant of the family name - Shmueli... P.S. cant be his Mom's - its a male name
Christine Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Oh come on now! I don't have time to figure this out. I really wish Mika would stop it with the neverending mysteries.
babspanky Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Still waiting for the day he becomes Dutch:thumb_yello: Yeah, that'd be awesome:newyear: Shouldn't be long now, girls.
ada692 Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 ok girls...you deserve the truth... he's POLISH that's what I tell everyone when they ask me about Mika's origin
MegPL Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 that's what I tell everyone when they ask me about Mika's origin but ya kno...all that curly hair... he could be Jewish
ada692 Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 but ya kno...all that curly hair... he could be Jewish Maybe Jewish grandma no, joking, his grandma is Polish
babspanky Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Again with the hair?! Accept the reality... Yeah, you just won't accept it, will you? http://www.curlywigs.com
Kata Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 I bumped into some Spanish text where he was mentioned as "Mikahil Holbrook Penniman Ismaili" the other day, but I frankly thought someone was taking the piss http://www.musica.com/letras.asp?info=46113&biografia=20943&idf=5
