And this is actually exactly where the name “Led Zeppelin” came from. One of the members was told “your band will take off like a lead zeppelin.” Basically saying it would never get off the ground. So they made that the band name, changing it to “led” to avoid it being mispronounced.

Ah yes Lead Zeppelin the front most zeppelin

....aaand that is exactly why they spell it "led" instead of "lead". "Because those fucking Americans are gonna pronounce it Leed instead of Lehd" - Plant (paraphrasing)

I could have sworn in school they told me to be careful when reading aloud lead like lead instead of lead
