In the old days actors had cool sounding names


Rock Hudson

Marilyn Monroe

Harrison Ford

etc

Now we get

Alden Ehrenreich

Yeah, really movie star sounding. 

You mean Roy Harold Scherer Jr, Norma Jeane Mortenson, and Harrison Ford?

reply

I doubt he knows they had their names changed, but maybe he means they sounded "cooler" then.

Easier to pronounce maybe, but I don't mind someone keeping their real name.

Fun Fact: Bette Davis refused the name Bettina Dawes. She, rightly said it was awful and sounded like "between the drawers."

The Rock
Vin Diesel
Gal Gadot
Scarlett Johansson
Emma Stone
