Michael Caine
Next up is perhaps the most charming sounding name, Michael Caine. As suave as his current name is, you might not believe what a mouthful his original one was: Maurice Joseph Micklewhite Jr. Fans of the American version of The Office will appreciate Caine’s previously used name for the theatre, Michael Scott! Michael Caine has been in the film and theatre industry for many years now. Some of his earliest films included the historical war film, Zulu. He is famous for his cockney accent and mature charm. His leading roles in modern times were as Batman’s butler in The Dark Knight trilogy. His leading role was in Hannah and Her Sisters, in which he won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.

Elton John
The Rocket Man himself took the snazzy and significant name of Elton John of “Reginald Kenneth Dwight”. The choice was inspired in honor of a pair of his favorite artists, Long John Baldry the singer, and Elton Dean the saxophonist. Elton John rose from middle-class England to become one of the world’s most successful, influential, and well-loved artists ever to have been born. His career spans dozens of monumental hits like Your Song, Don’t Go Breaking My Heart, and Tiny Dancer.
