That's not really true - Elton John's real name is Reginald Dwight I
believe.

Come of thing of it, you may have a point. :)

A long time ago, I wrote a short sci-fi story and used the Myron
Fredrick as my "pen" name. One of the editors that my Dad knew looked
through it, pronounced it acceptable, but a name change was necessary.

I asked why and he said that nobody was named Myron. When I said that
Myron, Fred and Rick were the first names of my best friends, he asked
what's Myron's nickname?

Doug I replied. :)

D'Oh!!!



Reginald Mantle III, in case you are into comic book trivia.

I understand your mom named you Sal****er Tom because she found you as a
babe floating in a wicker basket among the cattails along Long Island
Sound. Is that true? :}
