None. Movie director and Muppet performer Frank Oz did not get his name from the Oz books (he was born Frank Oznowicz). So far as I know, neither did wine expert Oz Clarke, Israeli writer Amos Oz (“Oz” is a common Hebrew word, meaning strength), athletes Ozzie Newsome or Ozzie Smith, actor Ozzie Nelson, rock singer Ozzy Osbourne, nor director Oz Scott.
