Johnny's surname[edit]

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)[reply]

Orignial[edit]

So what are the 'original lyrics' ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.154.84.2 (talk) 11:22, August 24, 2007 (UTC)

Where did the "bell" come from?[edit]

Surely it's "Ding Dong Dell," not "Bell"--isn't it? Rangergordon (talk) 23:56, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've only ever heard of it being "Ding Dong Bell", but obviously some people know it as "Ding Dong Dell". In the interest of consistency, I've changed it to "Ding Dong Bell" throughout, as that is the name of the article. Wikiwikiwoolgar (talk) 21:29, 9 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ducking stool theory[edit]

I have left this in for now, not least because it has some plausibility. But it looks like original research. Can anyone supply one reference to where this theory has been advanced before?--Sabrebd (talk) 20:54, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
