Why did Hillary Clinton claim she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary?

Hillary is a pathological liar.

But actually, she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary.......well afterwards, since he was named in 1919, and she wasn't named until 1947.

She was also named after Abe Lincoln, George Washington, and Ben Franklin, but so was I.

Hillary and Bill often use this type of technicality to cover their lies.

Sir Edmund Hillary gained fame by climbing Mt. Everest in 1953, 6 years after Hillary was born. Was he widely known in 1947 when Hillary was born?

She met Edmund Hillary and wanted to score Brownie points with him. Of course it was total fabrication as she was born years before Hillary made his way up Everest.

Because she is incapable of telling the truth

Egomaniacs like her are always looking to see their name in print

She's a compulsive liar

She didn't. Good to look up these things, you know?
