FAQs

Some performers with common names (i.e., John or Anne) choose more unusual names to help them shine among their contemporaries. Other actors opt for stage names because their given names just don't sound all that appealing: A man named Archibald Leach would eventually be known as the late Cary Grant.
A pseudonym (soo-do-nim) or alias is a fake name a person uses instead of their real name. Many people use pseudonyms, including authors (pen names) and performers (stage names). People use pseudonyms for several different reasons: to hide identity, gender, and/or race.
Creating a stage name can stem from various inspirations: sentimental reasons, a desire for a catchy or Hollywood-like moniker, a persona they wish to project, or even a twist on their birth name. While stars like Eminem and Lady Gaga are famous under their pseudonyms, their given names also deserve the spotlight.
People's names are fine, as personal names are not copyrighted. Maybe unique stage names like Prince, Jewel, Lady Gaga… and those wouldn't be noticed until your story was published… and it would have to make significant money because then they'd start demanding a cut.
Unfortunately, it's not uncommon for actors with unique names to be told they'll have a better chance at booking jobs if they simplify their names. Therefore, actors will go by a stage name that feels more familiar to audiences.
