[edit] Johnny's surname

It is not well known what is "Johnny's" actual surname...However, the most commonly used surname is "Green", which is odd because the way the name is usually pronounced does not really rhyme with the term "in"

What about the great vowel shift? could that have changed the pronunciation so that Green used to rhyme but doesn't anymore? It certainly wrecked some of Shakespears verse, love to rhyme with remove? (from 'Let me not, to the marriage of true minds, admit impediments)> ChristineD 22:58, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
