Although there have many numerous 50 cent pieces, there are also two men with the nicknames, 50 cent. One is a rapper named Curtis James Jackson III. The other was Kelvin Martin, who inspired Curtis to be named 50 cent. Here are some possible reasons that Kelvin and Curtis named themselves 50 cent.
1. They, like JFK, knew that they would one day be shot, and they may or may not be riding in a car at the time with a woman that was G-unit-orgeous.
2. They loved the feel of the half-dollar, and yet 50 cent had a better ring and philologically, rolled off the tongue smoother than half-dollar.
3. They would rob people even if they only had 50 cents, because at least they could buy a pop (Never for 49 cents).
4. They asked people for 50 cents so much that it became their name.
5. They demanded (or else) 50 cents so much from people they robbed, knowing that if they invested 50 cents slowly in a low cost index fund that it would grow steadily and they could have there 50 cents grow to become a fortune.
6. They gave our 50 cents to people all the time.
7. They, like JFK, liked to be with more than one woman.
8. Change gonna come, and they wanted change.
9. After paying for a pack of gum (sugar-free), and they got 50 cents as change - get it - CHANGE!!! It is a monetary metaphor for change!!!! Got Change? Get it? Poetic. Great. Inspiring.
10. They, like JFK, are democrats.
11. They, like JFK, had a mother named Sabrina who died in a fire (oh, JFK's mom was Rose? Sabrina and Rose are similar aren't they?)
12. They, like JFK, had a dog named Pushinka.
13. They don't like people with Harvey as a middle name and shoot at them, and yet who knows the rest of the story.
14. They, like Scrooge McDuck, have a lucky 50 cent piece (Scrooge has a lucky dime).
15. They could add, multiply, subtract, and divide better than anyone in their class.
16. They did not like Andrew Jackson, even though that was the name of their school, or because it was, and so they could not be called - twenty dollar bill (also, because that is too long a name).
17. They entered a game of dice with a 50 cent stake and came out with $500, thereby showing that if you can compound interest at 100,000% you should get a nickname for it.
18. To prove that coming up with 50 reasons for the name 50 cent is no easy task.

47. At the dice game, they rolled ahead, crapped in the crack they're like "Nah, we ain't paying for that!
48. 50 Bars of pleasure 50 bars of pain - It is easy to remember 50 so it will be easy for people to remember them even if they did not know him.
49. Beacuse they were born as healthy babies, not always crazy. This aint how moma rasied them, this how the hood made them The D's call me by my government name I be dumb and shoot up parks Have people runnin' like "Jesus Comin.'" From this reference you can tell they like the verse Luke 23:50 - They like Joseph. They also like Psalm 50 and Genesis 50 and the 50th book of the Bible is really a sum up of their life story - Philippians.
50. That one reason that always seems to be missing.
