No, I'm... You've ruined Portofino for me now.
And you're not called Jack?
No, I've always been called Jack.
My mother's called me Jack, but on my passport, I'm Giovanni.
I was named after my grandfather.
Because I was born in London, my mother's English, and she was just like, Giovanni's going to be a tough one.
Ah, right.
But, you know, especially like early 80s, she was just like, she wasn't crazy.
She just wanted Jack.

No, I've been asked to change my name.
I've been asked to change my last name a lot in the music business.

I think it's interesting.
It's also just who I am.
It is what it is.
