Her name is absurd
It sounds like a weed strain you'd order off a menu in Amsterdam.
shareYou should see some of the names celebrities are giving their kids these days.
shareThere should be laws against giving kids stupid names, heard that some Scandinavian countries do. It isn't fair that a poor kid will get mocked in school and have trouble finding a job because of something they have no control over. Dumb parents are so selfish, they just want to show their hippie friends how original they are and don't think about the poor kid's future.
shareIMDb Trivia: The origin of her unusual name stemmed from her parents, a British mother and a Nigerian father, both of whom loved biblical/historical names. Cush was derived from the ancient King Kush of Egypt coupled with her father's name, Jumbo.
So a real name and also memorable, which generally doesn't do an actor any harm.
On the radio this morning she explained Cush as the name of one of the sons of the sons of Noah (so a grandchild of Noah). Still biblical but not quite what IMDb has.
