When I say "Paul" who's the first person you think of?

Common misapprehension. He didn’t change his name. Saul and Paul are two different versions of the same name: Saul is the Hebrew version and Paul is the Latin version. So he was Saul to the Jews and Paul to the Romans.

Paul the Apostle, then McCartney

Since I am at this very moment eating some lunch I acquired from here, that’s my first thought.

Then I thought of the stupid Pegg-Frost film.

Then McCartney.

Then Paul and Storm.

Me. But I’m just self-centered that way.

Paul of Tarsus, then the alien from the eponymously named movie, then Sir Paul McCartney.

Peter, Paul and Mary (Paul Stookey)

Without reading the thread first, my brain immediately came up with Les Paul. And there is absolutely no reason why it should.
