- Father of Natalie Wood and Lana Wood.
- Four years younger than his wife, Maria Gurdin. Maria didn't want people to know she was older than Nick, so she falsified her date of birth to keep their ages more in line with convention. She went to her grave with the wrong date.
- Nick's gravestone lists his birthday as April 27, but this is false; it was actually the 14th according to both his and his mother's immigration papers, as well as the Social Security Death Index. Some references also erroneously cite April 15 as his birthday. There is no discernible explanation for these discrepancies, but a good guess is that his widow Maria Gurdin was just trying to muddle the records.
