Some insulted Ono, and asked Lennon why he was with her. Ono and Lennon were also hurt emotionally by the way Ono was treated by many people in England. It was easier to look for Kyoko, and get the law's help to look, if they stayed in America. Ono had a daughter, Kyoko Chan Cox, from an earlier husband, Anthony Cox, a filmmaker, who took her and disappeared. Lennon and Ono moved to the United States in 1971, and settled in New York City.

He never used the name Winston again, unless he had to for legal reasons (such as when he travelled to America). He could add a new name though, so he did that. He had never liked his middle name Winston (given him by his mother after Winston Churchill) and wanted to change it, but was told he could not under British law. Lennon loved his wife so much that he added her surname Ono to his own name, since she became Yoko Ono Lennon when she married him. Later, some fans blamed Yoko and Linda for breaking the Beatles up. Each wife had different ideas, and encouraged their husbands to depend less on each other. Lennon divorced his first wife, Cynthia Powell, and married Yoko Ono, while McCartney married Linda Eastman. The Beatles grew apart as the members got older. Famous songs written by Lennon for the Beatles are "A Hard Day's Night", "Help!", " Strawberry Fields Forever", "A Day In The Life" and many others. The two men often helped to make each other's songs better, so they liked to share writing credit.

Most of the songs the Beatles recorded were written by Lennon and McCartney. Lennon played the guitar, and later learned to play the piano. Manager Brian Epstein and record producer George Martin helped the Beatles become the most popular act in entertainment. People were excited by their music, and their live performances always pleased audiences. After Ringo Starr joined the band, they started to be very successful. He started the Beatles in his hometown of Liverpool, with Paul McCartney and George Harrison. He was the son of Alfred Lennon and Julia Lennon.
