Is the decades-long showbiz tradition of stage names bringing an identity crisis to Hollywood? Anne Hathaway has lamented not going with “Annie.” A few days ago, Closer Weekly published a Q&A with Martin Sheen and asked if he had any regrets about changing his name many moons ago? So this is today’s hot take: birth names should be placeholders. Why should our parents be allowed to determine the enduring foundation of our identities? They should get the first shot for administrative purposes. And then we get a mulligan at the time of our choosing. One of my best childhood friends changed his name before the start of high school. His birth name had caused a lot of teenage angst. I won’t say what it was.
