Marilyn Monroe's Marriages And Relationships. At 16, Marilyn Monroe -- then known as Norma Jean Baker -- married merchant marine James Dougherty in 1942. When Dougherty was sent on an overseas assignment, Monroe landed a job at a munitions factory in Burbank where she eventually caught the eye of a photographer.
Monroe's contract began in August 1946, and she and Lyon selected the stage name Marilyn Monroe. The first name was picked by Lyon, who was reminded of Broadway star Marilyn Miller; the last was picked by Monroe after her mother's maiden name. In September 1946, she divorced Dougherty, who was against her having a career.
