Oh yeah I saw this the other day. It's so funny cause some of them are similar to their real names and some are just totally random.

Whoa, some are not even close to their real names. How do they decide what name to use?

so, shania twain's old friends all call her "eileen"? these are so weird... and sometimes i like the original name better than the fake one (like "ciminella" for ashley judd). are we sure these are their real names, or were these the names their ancestors had before getting changed at ellis is?
