Return to The Wizard of Oz (person)

The Wizard's full original name was (deep breath) Oscar Zoroaster Phadrig Issac Norman Henkle Emmanuel Ambroise Diggs. When he grew up, he shortened this unwieldy name to Oz - after all, would you want your initials to be O.Z.P.I.N.H.E.A.D.? While working as a stage magician, ventriloquist, and balloonist for a circus, an accident brought him to Oz. Since the balloon had his abbreviated name - also the name of the land - on it, all the residents assumed he was the new ruler.

As revealed in Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz.
