Please list all of the famous people that have the same first name as you.
I'll start:
Bill Bixby
Bill Maher
Bill Moyers
Bill Shatner
Bill O'Reilly
Bill Bennett
Bill Cosby
Bill Paxton
Bilbo Baggins (my dad called me that when I was a kid)
Bill Press
Bill Bradley
Billy "Whiteshoes" Johnson
Hmmm, Bill is so common... but I like it.
I am sure there are more... and I didn't even list the famous Williams of the world.

Well, I mean really. It's so obvious from a sauve and debonair perspective!
Actually, if I can't take liberty with spelling, it's going to be a really short list!

Just keep in mind that Cary Grant's real name was Archibald Leach. How's that for suave and debonair?

I am sure there must be someone, though!

Pick Jane pick

See Jane run
Run Jane run

Well, she wasn't my favorite in those readers, anyway. I much preferred Puff, the orange striped cat. After Puff, I liked Sally, sort of.
Oh and you forgot Jayne Mansfield the actress, and Jane Torville of the Olympic gold medal ice dancing team, Torville and Dean.
