Best Answer

There is no man named "Monty Python". When given the task of naming their show, the members of Monty Python worked very hard to come up with a name. Of the names proposed were "Owl Stretching Time" and "You Can't Name a Show Cornflakes". Somebody came up with having "Flying Circus" in the title, but they still felt it needed something more. Eric Idle is credited with coming up with "Monty", feeling it sounded like an old English gentleman and "Python" is believed to have come from John Cleese.
