Yes. My real name (which is not EL BANDITO) is actually the name of a famous TV personality. I must get asked three times a day, “did you know there is a TV guy by your name?”
High school classmate named Marilyn Munroe, long blonde hair. Teachers when new year started said “you’ve got to be kidding” ...different spelling of surname didnt soften reaction, but she was a good sport about it.
I worked for a specialty beer distributor named Stephen King who had no clue who the author Stephen King was even though it was brought up to him a great deal.
Nah, but I had a friend named Chris. His mother’s last name was Rock. He got his last name from his dad, but we always talked about how hilarious it would have been had he got his mother’s last name somehow. Chris Rock. Lol.
I love that we’re distinguishing “normal” from “celebrity”!! Yes, I’ve known several: Bill Gates, Tom Kruse (the normal guy’s spelling), Jeff Bridges, and a few that I can’t recall offhand.
