as some of you may know, i am obsessed with names: why people choose them; why some are spelled differently (ahem, thank you mom and dad); why some parents think their child needs more than two of them etc. i found this amazing website that exposes celebrities' real names. here are my favorites...
frederick austerlitz = fred astaire
truman streckfus persons = truman capote
cornelius crane chase = chevy chase (corny doesn't always equal funny)
bernard schwartz = tony bennett
amanda lee rogers = portia de rossi (even though ellen wants a-man-da...hehehe)
dennis schlacta maywood = big dave's man-crush revealed!
archibald leach = cary grant
arnold george dorsey = engelbert humperdinck (maybe you were better off before, buddy)
reginald kenneth dwight = elton john
todd jones = james earl jones (can you just picture "todd, i am your father"?)
wladziu lee valentino = liberace
ralph lipschitz = ralph lauren
eleanor gow = elle macpherson
brian hugh warner = marilyn manson (no self-respecting brian would wear fake breasts)
chalm witz = gene simmons
carlos ray = chuck norris
mor and i look forward to the day when we have our own little archibald wladziu cornelius bernard hawley.
