this is this really oprah is it? kinda blond really dont get it its not like she would ever do this? would she?????????????????
ACTUALLY, Oprah's parents or whoever was naming her (or recording her name at birth), I heard was aiming for Orpah (from the book of Ruth... Naomi's other daughter-in-law) and got the p and the r switched around. Thus, she was stuck w/ Oprah rather than Orpah. However, we've become more accustomed to Oprah in our society because of how uncommon Orpah is in our culture and how famous Oprah is.
Please don't type in all caps, its annoying and rude. Orphia could be the feminine form of Orpheus.
I checked google and found this site:
