When asked to explain his name, Nardwuar quips, ''“Nardwuar the Human Serviette” the name “Nardwuar” is, he says, just “a dumb, stupid name like Sting or Sinbad;” “Human” came from a Cramps song called “Human Fly”; and “Serviette” came from the fact that “in the U.S.A. they don’t have serviettes, they have napkins”''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.rrj.ca/m20444/ )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://hypebeast.com/2012/3/hypebeast-vs-nardwuar )〕 He has a bachelor's degree in history from the University of British Columbia.
