Best Answer

"Turner" came from her former husband Ike Turner; "Tina" was his grandmother's name (Tina Ramona Limentoe). "Tina Turner" is her stage name, which she kept after their divorce; she was allowed to do so, in return for Ike receiving all future royalties from the recordings she made during their marriage. Her original name was Anna Mae Bullock.

Ike wanted Tina's name to be wild! So just like Sheena of the Jungle, he rhymed Sheena with Tina... Ike also said something about Nyoka, she was the queen or something of the Jungle.
