The song, as Paul said, was horrible but the title was catchy. So they took that word to name their band. They were searching for a band name which sounds familiar to English people but is actually a Norwegian language. So they opted for A-ha.
The band didn’t have to struggle much to come into fame. After releasing their first debut album in 80s they have received a massive response from the music world. Their first album reached 1st position in their country, 2nd rank in UK and 15th rank in USA in the same year.
