My name is the same as the screen name of a German gay porn star.

1.  I tell people not to google me, and use a pseudonym for most of my writing online (gun review sites, ammoland, gununiversity etc)

2.  This has led to a few funny mistaken identity stories (online), especially since I speak German.

My brother hung out with a guy named Patrick Swayze for a while. He's young enough that the actor was already famous by the time he was born, so his parents must have done it for the lulz.

I went to elementary school with a pair of twins named Alexander and John Hamilton

My name is the same as a pretty famous person that, if you google him, is widely regarded as a pedophile.

It's not "joe Biden,"  "Bill Clinton," or "Jeff Epstein" but if you've done EE business with me you know what I'm talking about.

No, but had a friend (recently deceased) that was the spitting image of Stephen King.
Like, people would approach him in public and ask regularly.

There's a dentist named John Voight.  The actor doesn't use an H in his first name, so there is that.  Somebody bought John's car and thought it was the actor's car!  Can you believe it?!?!

Al Pacino.

He is the Vietnamese from Heat.

Owned a auto shop in Baton Rouge, escaped Vietnam in the 70's and wanted the most American name he could think of after he became a citizen.

I know a Michael Jordan, Michael Johnson, and my favorite, Jason Bourne. Also a few other lesser known athletes. I have the same name as an NFL football player (think he is retired now).

There was also a movie awhile back called Michael Clayton. I know two Michael Claytons.

I’ve worked with a few “famous” floor guys over the last 15 years.  We’ve had Bob Dylan, Dave Mason, Michael Jackson, Steve Miller, and James (Jimmy) Page.  I don’t know if it’s really a thing, but it seems like there’s a lot of floor guys that share names with famous musicians.

Went to high school with Jeremiah Johnson.  Never heard of the movie until a couple of years later, though.

Went to middle school with Chris Tucker.  He was a short white guy.  

One of our vendors has a guy I work with regularly named Michael McDonald.

I did a transfer for a guy named Luke Walker.  When he gave me his driver’s license his middle name was Sky

So his full name was

Luke Sky Walker


He did not seem to enjoy it.  At all.  In fact he seemed very, very filled with the dark side of the force over it.

famous name - no.
But one of my good friends looks like a dead ringer stand-in for Gunnery Sargeant R. Lee Ermey.
He used to get stopped all the time and asked if he would sign an autograph.
And my buddy played the part well, as he was a Marine and had the exact same mentality as Ermey!
