: I've come across an expression "who's your daddy" in a few movies recently and am interested to know the origin and meaning of the same.

"Who's your daddy?" is a line in a song called Time of the Season by The Zombies, from 1969. The stanza goes something like this:
"What's your name? (What's your name?)
Who's your Daddy? (Who's your Daddy?)
Is he rich? (Is he rich like me?)"

Also, this phrase was discussed here last year, after it was uttered by a famous baseball player. Here's a link to that discussion:
