Some girl in band class brings me a version of Iron Man for marching band. It credits William Ward, Anthony Iommi, the other guy and one John Osbourne.
I always thought Ozzy was his real name but if he is recieving royalties under John than it has to be his birth name.
Anyone else suprised or knew this before?

Yeah his first name is John and Ozzy is a nick name. I saw it on behind the music or something like that.

This would have been shocking news had it been 1976.

Next thing you are going to tell me is that Geezer isn't Geezer's real name either.

I could be wrong, but doesn't the credits for Paranoid actually list him as John "Ozzy" Osbourne? I swear some record does.

I feel pity towards any woman who marries a John.
Poor Sharon.

Next thing you're gonna tell me is that The Great Khali isn't his real name.
I absolutely refuse to believe that a mother and father would look at their baby boy and not say, "Let's call him, The Undertaker"

I feel pity towards any woman who marries a John. HEY NOW...that would be my name, good sir...plus also the name of my dearly departed father...so bite thy fork-ed tongue, sir. Good day! Oh yeah...and I've known his real name is John since back in my college radio days. I figured OZZY would have had to have been a nickname. |

I feel pity towards any woman who marries a John. Poor Sharon. My husband's name is John. He's the greatest man I know, including my dad and grandfathers. Don't pity me, I don't want it and don't need it. Almost every male with the last name Osbourne is called Ozzy or Oz at some time in their life. I personally know 2 Ozzies |

I believe that his name is something like John Micheal Osbourne, and he just used Ozzy. And it fits pretty good, if you ask me.

I personally know 2 Ozzies I think by John, he meant "Man who uses prostitutes". So he feels pity for girls who are cheated on. |

For some reason I knew this and I don't know why. Must be those damn "Behind the Music" shows.

I've known for years.
Did you also know Michael Caine's real name (as he has not had it legally changed) is Maurice Micklewhite?
