You're both right, it ends with 'o'

Because you definitely couldn't have just looked up the lyrics to this well known song...

No idea. I've only ever heard small parts of the song in American movies.

Bobby Bingo. I mean, I've never heard something so ridiculous in all my days.

I've heard both versions, also remember a book which had the lyrics "he clept him little Bingo". It's an old folk song. There's no such thing as the "right" version. I think your husband's is more common now though.
