Όνομα Συγκροτήματος: Enigma
Προέλευση ονόματος : O Cretu υιοθέτησε αυτό το όνομα, καθώς ήθελε το συγκρότημα να σχετίζεται πάντα με μυστήρια, άλυτα εγκλήματα, και άγνωστα πράγματα της ζωής μετά θάνατον. Η λέξη, όπως είναι κατανοητό, προέρχεται από την ελληνική λέξη “αἴνιγμα < αἰνίσσομαι”. Εμπνέεται τη μουσική τους από Γρηγοριανά, σανσκριτικά, και Vedic άσματα.
