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? :} |
