Rock Almanac: April 22, 2008
On This Date in 1969: John Lennon changes his middle name from Winston to Ono, in honor of his bride of one month, Yoko Ono.The Almanac Advises for April 22: "Some brides will change their last name upon marriage, others will retain their original family name. As another alternative, some newlywed wives, in lieu of adopting an unwieldy hyphenated surname, will take one family name as a middle name and one as a last name."
