#bandnameorigins Number four... CCR. Now I am not positive about this one, but I loved the song and the following is the only explanation I can find on the interwebs... It turns out Tom had a friend named Norvel Creedence and the band liked the sound of the last name... Legend also has it that Clearwater has two meanings - the name of a beer that was a fav of John's and a nod to the emerging environmental movement at the time. Lastly Revival - because after ten years of playing as a group called the Golliwogs a Revival was just what they needed ;-)
