I just did a search and find atleast 25 celebrities have my name one of them is Grace Kelly.
I was not happy with my name after I attended school when I came to know of so many names I came home and complained to my father but when he told me that I was named after his mother I felt nice.
Is there a famous person or persons you are named after?
The most famous person named Grace is Grace Kelly. Other famous people named Grace include celebrities like Grace Jones and Grace Hopper.

That has made me smile remembering someone named Gertrude she hated her name and would balk at the idea of you callig her Gerty or Gertrude.
Susan Sarandon is one I can think of just off hand.
I like being called Sue much better Susan meant trouble for me when I was small.

They did nickname me SallyAnn no idea why either much better than Susan though.
Susan meant my two brothers caused problems that I could not solve all by my little self.
