Name
Media slander claimed that the name CPg was an abbreviation Cigány Pusztitó Gárda ( Gypsy Exterminator Gang ). Former band member, Antal Kis stated that the name of the band was directly influenced by the repeatedly sung phrase “Come on” taken from Please Please Me by the The Beatles. Though not speaking English at the time they misspelled the word instead as “Common” thereby becoming Common Group. Shortly after deciding to pursue a punk rock direction the name was corrected to the official Come on Punk Group. Benkő later jokingly changed the name to Coitus Punk Group.
