"John Lennon, while never denying that the song itself was inspired by the countless acid trips he had taken, quickly explained that the title, in fact, had been mere coincidence. It was taken, verbatim, from the name John's four-year-old son Julian had given to a drawing he made at school (shown below), Lennon claimed; Lennon himself had no idea that the title formed the abbreviation LSD until it was pointed out to him by someone else after the album's release.

Needless to say, this explanation was not widely accepted. Lennon's response, as Schaumberg wrote, " . . . didn't satisfy the wise ones of our generation. Oh no, wink wink, nudge nudge, they knew what he meant all along, snicker snicker". Other chroniclers of Beatle history offer the same general statements of public disbelief."

Here is a quote from an episode of Full House that I saw today (please don't ask...). Joey an uncle of the girl:

"You are the prettiest 3rd grader I know, Stephanie."
