That's the whole thing. Say my name is Bob Brantley. I could call myself "beenBee" right? Sounds like shit.
The reason "Eminem" sounds good, is because not only does it represent his initials, it's also a play on a word we're already familiar with; m&m's. So it has several meanings, it's a pun.
If I named myself "Trauma Blow" it could represent 'blow' like in a body blow from a boxer, etc.... but "Kurtis Blow" works much better, because 1. the guy's name is already Kurtis... 2. the 'blow' represents a body blow or whatever from a boxer, and 3. there was a song called "Curtis Loew", so Kurtis Blow is a play on all 3.
