Celebrities

List of celebrities with stage names, loosely ranked according to fame and popularity. It's tough to break into show business, but a good stage name might give you a leg up in a sea of boring Joe Smiths and Anne Taylors. This list includes famous people you didn't know were using fake stage names, including those who go by their middle names and celebrities who used variations of family names. A number of people on this list changed their names to avoid confusion with other actors. For example, the Batman you know as Michael Keaton was born Michael John Douglas - not to be confused with Michael Kirk Douglas (whose own father, Kirk Douglas, was born Issur Danielovitch). Other celebrities changed their names to protect their privacy. Natalie Hershlag was a famous child actress, but you have always known her as Natalie Portman. Some celebrities who use pseudonyms changed their names themselves just because they sounded better.This list of famous stage names includes celebrities who go by nicknames and famous people who have changed their names. It does not, however, include female celebrities who use their married surnames professionally, <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/adopted-celebrities/carlybobarly?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">famous people who were adopted</a> by stepparents at a young age and had their names legally changed as children, or celebrities with obviously theatrical stage names, such as many wrestlers and eponymous artists. You know Adele must have a last name. You know Sting's real name is not Sting. You are pretty sure it's not just a coincidence that the Macho Man's last name was Savage.

True Stories

What's in a name? For an actor, actress, or pop star, that name is a brand, identity, and image -&nbsp;so, to answer the question,&nbsp;a lot. Perhaps that's why there are so many <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/celebrities-with-stage-names/celebrity-lists" target="_blank">celebrities with stage names</a>.

Some big time Hollywood celebrities have one tiny thing wrong with them: it's very hard to spell their names. These celebrities all have hard names to spell, either because they are much more complex than say, &quot;John Smith,&quot; or because they are a creative take on a usually easy name, like &quot;Katharine&quot; Hepburn. Tricky!The famous names on this list are ones you probably remember, because when you first heard them, you went &quot;well, what now?&quot; Do you misspell Shia LaBeouf every single time you search Google to learn about his latest antics? Yes, yes you do. It's okay, so does everyone else.From Matthew Mcconnaughheyeyghey (Matthew Mcaun? Matthew Machonahy? Matthew Mahogany? Who even knows.) to Oscar 2013 darling&nbsp;Quvenzhan&eacute; Wallis, there are some celebs with complicated names that you will just never master. It's okay, the world will keep spinning, I promise.Celebrities with complicated names are also some of the biggest stars in Hollywood. Remember Monica from Friends? Of course you do, but you definitely don't remember the extra &quot;e&quot; in Courteney Cox! In any case, it's time for you to upvote the celebrity names you can never remember how to spell. Bonus: if you can think of any other famous people with confusing name spellings, then you can, and should, add them to this list for other mystified fans of big screen stars to ponder.

Many famous people have chosen to adopt a &quot;second self,&quot; or alter ego&nbsp;- like musicians who develop personas as a way to push themselves creatively or break into a new genre, or comedians who use them as a way to go unrecognized. Most celebrities have one, maybe two alter egos. One female rapper even has as many as 19.

Comedian <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/sacha-baron-cohen-characters/reference" target="_blank">Sacha Baron Cohen</a> has several hilarious alter egos - including Ali G, Borat, Br&uuml;no, and Admiral General Haffaz Aladeen - who have all been featured on film and on TV. He uses his funny personas for comedic purposes, and he even appeared at the Oscars as his Aladeen alter ego. Female pop stars like Beyonc&eacute;&nbsp;and Katy Perry often performed as their alter egos, Sasha Fierce and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAtvoXNO91c" target="_blank">Kathy Beth Terry</a>, respectively. Other singers and actors who have donned alternate personalities include <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/how-hannah-montana-ruined-everyone-on-the-show/zack-howe" target="_blank">Miley Cyrus</a> and Jennifer Lopez.

While some may question&nbsp;the benefits of an alter ego or why a celebrity would adopt several different names, these successful stars showcase how personas can help bolster one&#39;s career. And if these celebs are <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/she-the-people/wp/2013/12/28/finally-free-of-sasha-fierce-beyonce-is-a-grown-woman/?utm_term=.8a6078ceaad3" target="_blank">anything like Bae</a>, they know that sometimes, all good things must end.

This list of the real names of rappers will inform and enlighten you, because who even knew some of the best rappers in history used a stage name? &quot;Snoop&quot; wasn&#39;t his mother&#39;s idea? Get out. Kanye West and Wyclef Jean use their given name to record their music, but most rappers use a stage name. Some rappers use nicknames that they have had their whole life, while other MCs create an entirely new persona and&nbsp;give themselves unique rapper names. Some rappers have even changed their name multiple times.

Who is the most famous rapper that uses a stage name? Jay Z tops our list. Jay Z was born Shawn Corey Carter on December 4, 1969.

He has released such songs as &quot;In da Club&quot; and &quot;Candy Shop.&quot;

A couple of famous rappers have gone by multiple stage names. Snoop Dogg was born Calvin Cordozar Broadus, Jr. on October 20, 1971. He has released such songs as &quot;Drop It Like It&#39;s Hot&quot; and &quot;Gin and Juice.&quot; After a recent trip to Jamaica, Snoop changed his name to Snoop Lion. P. Diddy was born Sean Combs on November 4, 1969. He has had such hit singles as &quot;Bad Boy for Life&quot; and &quot;Last Night.&quot; He has also been known as Puff Daddy and Diddy.

Jana Marie Duggar

TLC&#39;s 19 Kids and Counting featured the Duggar family: Jim Bob, Michelle&nbsp;and their 19 children, all of whose names began with the letter J.

Which Duggar names are your favorite? This is a list of all the Duggar kids names, including recent pics of all the family members. Picking out 19 unique J names proved to be a challenge for the ambitious couple. They started strong with Joshua James, and then had <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/famous-boy-and-girl-twins/celebrity-lists">boy-girl&nbsp;twins</a>&nbsp;John-David and Jana Marie. Next came Jill Michelle, which was alright, sure, and then Jessa, which maybe could have been Jessica instead. Then was Jinger, which definitely should have been Ginger, and maybe this plan wasn&#39;t working. They were back on track with Joseph, though Josiah felt a bit old-timey, as did Joy-Anna,&nbsp;Jedidiah, and Jeremiah, which all sound like <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/creepy-scary-weird-kids-real-stories/michaelchoi?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">creepy kids</a> who live in&nbsp;barns among rusty harvesting equipment.&nbsp;Jason, James, and Justin lucked out, and Jackson got a popular baby name. Johannah... why that H on the end? At last, a Jennifer, but then a Jordyn-Grace where a Jordan would have done, and a Josie, not a Josephine or Jocelyn or even Joseline.

The next generation of Duggars&nbsp;has not one J among them - though there are plenty or normal ones left, like Jamie, Jeremy, Jacob, Jasmine, Jared, Juliet, Julianne, Julian, Judith, Julie, or Jules. Instead, Jessa Duggar named her first son Spurgeon. Some of the other grandchildren are OK, though, including a Samuel, a Mason, and even a cute Felicity (born 2018) or Ivy (born 2019).

Hudson shares her name with a famous pop singer.&nbsp; “I Kissed a Girl” singer Katy Perry was actually born Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson.

Honeymooners actor Jackie Gleason shares a name with an up and coming TV actor.&nbsp; Jack Gleeson plays the unscrupulous King Joffrey on Game of Thrones.The Great Escape actor Steve McQueen shares his name with the man who directed the Oscar-winning film 12 Years a Slave.

Nicknames can be serious business. Whether created by one&#39;s enemies or allies, nicknames often become more associated with a historical figure than their given name. &quot;Gaius&quot; was an extremely common name in Ancient Rome, but there&#39;s only been one Caligula. Similarly, England has been ruled by three Richards, the most famous of whom is remembered as the &quot;Lionheart.&quot;

<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-political-nicknames/mike-rothschild" target="_blank">US Presidents have had all sorts of nicknames</a>, too, from the unflattering &quot;Tricky Dick&quot; to the superior &quot;Honest Abe.&quot; When it comes to monarchs and other rulers, a nickname often reflects how their contemporaries viewed their reign.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Rose Tyler

Rose Tyler is a fictional character portrayed by Billie Piper in the British science fiction television series Doctor Who, and was created by series producer Russell T Davies. With the revival of Doctor Who in 2005, Rose was introduced as a new travelling companion of series protagonist, the Doctor, in his ninth and tenth incarnations. The companion character, intended to act as an audience surrogate, was key in the first series to introduce new viewers to the mythos of Doctor Who, which had not aired regularly since 1989. Piper received top billing alongside Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant for the duration of her time as a regular cast member. A regular for all of series one and series two, Piper later returned for three episodes of the programme's fourth series and appeared in feature length specials in both 2010 and 2013.
In the series' narrative, Rose is introduced in the eponymous series one premiere as a 19-year-old working class shop assistant from London, alongside her own supporting cast in the form of her mother Jackie Tyler and her boyfriend Mickey Smith.

Rose Nylund

Rose Nylund is a fictional character featured on the popular 1980s situation comedy The Golden Girls, and its spin-off The Golden Palace. She was portrayed by Betty White for 8 years, totaling 208 episodes. Rose was originally supposed to be played by Rue McClanahan and Blanche Devereaux, one of Rose's roommates, was to be played by Betty White. However, Jay Sandrich, the director of the show, suggested that Rue and Betty switch parts. He felt that Betty would be a better fit for Rose because she had already played Sue Ann Nivens in the television show The Mary Tyler Moore Show, which is similar to the character of Blanche Devereaux.

She may also share Albus's fear of being sorted into Slytherin as she is said to look grim when her father jokes that if she is not sorted into Gryffindor, he would disown her. She is also jokingly instructed not to befriend Scorpius, Draco's son, and to beat him in all of their exams. As her mother did, it is noted that she changed into her Hogwarts robes earlier than was necessary.
