Hey! Did you know that Oprah Winfrey's original name was "Orpah" ?
She was named after a character in the Bible, but later changed her name to "Oprah" because it was easier to pronounce. She was born on January 29, 1954, in Kosciusko, Mississippi. Now, Oprah is most famous for the long running "Oprah Winfrey Show".
Orpah is a woman mentioned in the Book of Ruth in the Hebrew Bible. She was from Moab and was the daughter-in-law of Naomi and wife of Chilion.
