For all you lovable nerds out there, the name Crooked Spire does pay homage to The Crooked Spire in Chesterfield - named for it's spire which is - you guessed it - crooked.
It wasn't supposed to be, though, that's the thing. Made from wood and lead, it was added to the church in 1362 by someone who didn't seem to know exactly what he was doing. Sun hit one side more than the other causing uneven expansion and contraction of the materials and voila - a twisted and crooked spire that accidentally became art.
