What was Marilyn monroes mum and dads name?

Answer 1

Not as easy as it sounds this one. For a start she was born Norma Jeane Mortenson, but was baptized as Norma Jeane Baker.

Her Mum was Gladys Pearl Baker and her fathers name was given as Edward Mortenson but they were allready separated before the prgnancy. It seems she used his name to avoid the stigma of illigitimacy

Marilyns mum had told her as a youth that the real father was a Charles Stanley Gifford, showing her a photograph.

Her mum put Marilyn with foster parents, Albert and Ida Bolender, and for the first part of her life she believed them to be her parents.
