Hill stated on his official German website (http://www.terencehill.de/de_interview_qa.html) that it was made up by film producers who gave him a list with 20 names and 24 hours time to choose one of the names. He picked "Terence Hill" for he liked this name the most and it has his mother's initials whose name was "Hildegard Thieme". Most people to this day think that "Hill" was his wife's name. But her name was Lori Zwicklbauer and is today Zwicklbauer-Hill after she took his name. It was for publicity reasons when they said that Hill took his name from his wife. At this time of upcoming feminism a man who chose to take his wife's name was something special. (imdb.com)
