Best Answer

No one. When Paul McCartney was writing the song, the original name he chose was Father McCartney, but decided to change it as he thought people would believe he was speaking about his father and picked up the name McKenzie from a phonebook to take it's place.

'Daisy Hawkins original name of which beatles hit song?

When Paul McCartney first started work on "Eleanor Rigby", it was as "Miss Daisy Hawkins". "Eleanor Rigby" was a song he was not happy with, he would do a little work on it, and put it away, and then do some more to it later on. Paul recalls that the name "Miss Daisy Hawkins" did not suit the song and that he may have picked the name "Eleanor" from working with Eleanor Bron on the movie "Help!" or, alternatively, he saw the name Eleanor Bygraves on a gravestone. Later on a trip to Bristol, he saw the name of a wine merchant on a shop window, Rigby & Evens Ltd. The evolution of the name was complete, and he had his suitably named character and song title.
