Best Answer

Her real name was Audrey Kathleen Hepburn-Ruston, which she changed during World War II to Edda Van Heemstra, as she lived in occupied Holland and didn't want to be suspected as British. However, after the war, she moved to London and worked as a chorus girl, so she shortened her real name to Audrey Hepburn.
