What is Bing Crosbys real name?
Harry Lillis Crosby. It is believed (Bing) came from a childish imitation of a gun, Bing, rather than Bang. somewhat oddly the bing bing sound effect was used on the childish animal cartoon-with a western bent- Richochet Rabbit or Richochet (Bing Bing) Rabbit! This character, of course, has no connection with Mr. Crosby.
Where did Bing Crosby get his name?
In 1910, Crosby was forever renamed. The six-year-old Harry Lillis discovered a full-page feature in the Sunday edition of the Spokesman-Review, "The Bingville Bugle." The "Bugle," written by humorist Newton Newkirk, was a parody of a hillbilly newsletter complete with gossipy tidbits, minstrel quips, creative spelling, and mock ads. A neighbor, 15-year-old Valentine Hobart, shared Crosby's enthusiasm for "The Bugle," and noting Crosby's laugh, took a liking to him and called him "Bingo from Bingville." The last vowel was dropped and the name shortened to "Bing," which stuck.
