== Origin of name == As a young man, Cantinflas performed a variety of acts in travelling tents, and it was here that he acquired the nickname "Cantinflas". According to one obituary, "Cantinflas" is a meaningless name invented to prevent his parents from knowing he was in the entertainment business, which they considered a shameful occupation. Cantinflas confirmed this in 1992 in his last television interview.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH0hxwpk-vA |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211211/MH0hxwpk-vA| archive-date=2021-12-11 |url-status=live|title=Mario Moreno "Cantinflas" (1992) Su Ultima Entrevista Por Television |date=June 2013 |language=es|publisher=YouTube|access-date=14 February 2015}}{{cbignore}}</ref>
