   I won't name my 2nd cousin here but she has an alias that only family   
   and close friends know.  She knew shooter's dad well and is MEGA   
   successful.  She even wrote a song or two with Waylon.   
      
   I can see totally some people using a "nom de plume" on social media   
   and e-mail.   
      
   I also know a lot of people with crazy names... like my   
   best friend's last name was Wine... and she has two sisters.  Her name   
   is Chardonne, her two sisters are Melot and Roseh (they put the H in   
   there so that the schoolteachers would get it right) now imagine a kid   
   having their name called during attendence "Merlot Wine"...   
      
   Then the ultimate was I actually dated this girl in College who's last   
   name was Black... her middle name was "Coffee"... Carol Coffee Black   
   (thank goodnes she married someone with a different name).   
      
   Now to bring this back to the movies... we have a lot of movie stars   
   with Let me start how many can we name...   
      
       1.  Rip Torn
