He was born In Ochtomuchty, Scotland, a place which, ho says, you can't pronounce correctly unless you're a German. Other wise you'll probably pronounce the "ch" like a "k," which is not correct. "Bohhy BurnV name was originally Burness,' " ssys the Omaha Burness. "Bobby thought tht name was hard to pronounce and so he changed it to Burns, which Is the name by which the whole world knows him.
