Depp was born in Owensboro, Kentucky to John Christopher Depp, Sr. and Betty Sue Wells. He has one brother, Danny, and two sisters, Christie (who now is Depp's personal manager) and Debbie. The Depp family has Cherokee, Irish and German ancestry; Johnny has said he doesn't know the origin of his surname, but he repeatedly jokes that the name translates to "idiot" in German. Depp's maternal great-grandmother, Minnie, was a full-blooded Cherokee and his father also has distant Cherokee heritage.

But, he was born in Kentucky.

Has mostly Irish, German, and Cherokee ancestry, with some Navajo as well. "Depp," however, is a French surname.

Probably, a little bit. But whoever said he's English, like from England, he's not. He's from Kentucky! He's a country boy! I'm a country girl!
