Character Information

Guglielmo Marconi was an Italian inventor and scientist.
History
After Edna said to her class that the wireless was an invention by Guglielmo Marconi she asked if anyone knows what his first message was. Milhouse answered "I wanta changea my namea" and the class started to laugh, then Martin Prince said "Our 10th caller will receive tickets to Supertramp" and the class laughed again.
When Lisa Simpson gets out the car and take her school work, can see that it is a "spaghetti Marconi".[1]
Behind the Laughter
Milhouse's impression uses an exaggerated Italian accent, but Marconi's mother was Irish and heiress of the Jameson Irish Whiskey so he knew English his whole life and has no thick or soft Italian accent in recordings of him speaking English.
