HelpRe: Sharing a name with a celebrity
in reply to a message by Anonymity
Hard to say without a clue as to what name it is, and whether your friend is using both first and last name.
NEVER intentionally use the same first and last name of a celebrity; you'll either look woefully ignorant or really pathetically imitating. Bad enough for people who were named their names before a celebrity with that name came to be well-known.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
