Cher recounts in her new memoir, ‘Cher: The Memoir, Part One,’ how she discovered later in life that a hospital nurse put the wrong first name on her birth certificate. When she asked her mother, Georgia Holt, about the mix-up, she said, ‘I was only a teenager, and I was in a lot of pain. Give me a break.’ Holt gave birth to Cher in 1946 when she was 13 years old.
