Simon Crowell
Niall Horan decided the name. He was joking around and said Ones Direction in his " announcer " voice, and the band decided that was there name
Zayn
Harry Styles suggested the name One Direction :) He liked the way it sounded when the announcers said it.
Harry styles came up with the name because the band wanted to go in "one direction"... to the top! they also thought it sounded cool when Niall said it in his announcer voice.
In the ''One Direction Video Diary - Week 7 - The X Factor, Harry said that his favorite boy band is Take That.
Zayn
The one the boys often quote was that he told them to "be the band you wanna be"
Zayn Malik
a great band at top rank. apparently the are getting compared to the beetles (old band but really awesome i said that and i am 14!) so that means somthin
Obviously One Direction! This question was asked to 100 random people (chosen of the streets) and 95% said One direction ... 2% said JLS ... 1% said the wanted and the rest were labelled Other! One direction is the corrected answer by far! Hope you liked and no hate you may disagree!
Harry said 14. Louis said 17. I don't remember the rest. Sorry. Someone else said 14 though
'O, my God! Helen! It was the band! The speckled band!' There was something else which she would fain have said, and she stabbed with her finger into the air in the direction of the Doctor's room, but a fresh convulsion seized her and choked her words.
