Yes, in September 1939, when being very confident after Poland was
relatively easy and swift defeated. Göring then said his name was no
longer Göring but Meyer (a very common German name, similar to the
English "Miller"), if any single enemy plane would make it to the Ruhr. A
few months later not only the Ruhr (relatively close to the British
Island), but Berlin, deep in the German heartland, was bombed. Not much
damage was done at first, but must have pissed him off.
