If I’m right (but I’m not quite sure) the British wrote Yankee Doodle to make fun of us but I guess we were like “fuck it” haha I could be wrong but that’s what I was told.

2022-08-18 18:30:07 +0000 UTCI thought Sheila is slang for girl. Stella means “star”. There was no Stella, but Sheila is the name Leckie used in his memoir. Sheila was married and cheating on her husband so Leckie dumped her when he found out.

2022-08-18 18:29:22 +0000 UTCThis part is based on Bob Leckie's book (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helmet_for_My_Pillow). It's rumored that her name wasn't actually Stella, due to Stella being Australian sang for "Girl". That Bob used that name to obscure her identity.
