BILL Clinton's autobiography My Life has been raising eyebrows in New
Zealand amid rumblings the former US president has been less than truthful
about the mountainous origins of his wife's name.

Clinton's claim that Hillary was named in honour of Sir Edmund Hillary, the
New Zealander who conquered Mount Everest, has created more interest here
than the former president's relationship with White House intern Monica
Lewinsky.

But the story has a fundamental problem: Edmund Hillary reached Everest's
peak on May 29, 1953, nearly seven years after the infant Hillary arrived in
the world.

Edmund Hillary's autobiography, Nothing Venture, Nothing Win, noted that at
the time of Hillary's birth, he was earning a modest income from
bee-keeping.
