Fornika is the 2007 album by German hip hop band Die Fantastischen Vier. The name does not refer to the term of fornication. It comes from a strange misspelling of a Pizza-Delivery-Service-Person that delivered Pizza to the Band's Studio. Though they totally misspelled the name on the doorbell ("Fornika" instead of "Wernicke" and street "Emnhof" instead of "Immenhofer Straße"), the pizza was still delivered. The name "Fornika" is an inside-band-term for "strange things".
