Thomas Dolby

Thomas Dolby (born Thomas Morgan Robertson October 14, 1958) is a British musician. His father was a professor of history. The "Dolby" nickname comes from the name Dolby Laboratories, and was given to him by friends impressed with his studio tinkering. Dolby Laboratories was reportedly very displeased with Robertson using the company name as his own stage name and sued him, trying to stop him from using the name Dolby entirely. Eventually, they succeeded in restricting him from using the word Dolby in any other context other than with the name Thomas.
