"Now that we were professional, (around 1960), we wanted to do something that we had been toying with for a long time, that was to change our names to real showbiz names. I became 'Paul Ramon', which I thought was suitably exotic."

"Stuart became Stuart de Staël after the painter. George became Carl Harrison after Carl Perkins. John was Long John. There was none of that 'he didn't change his name': we all changed our names."
-Paul McCartney

Second chapter :) These quotes are from the Anthology, like the first 2. I just love the fact that they changed their names! Even if it didn't last long😅 My personal favorite is 'Paul Ramon'.
