    You have to “deal” with referring to a celebrity by a name you don’t prefer? Somehow this is an inconvenience for you?

      Its just a unique circumstance where a male and female name are almost phoneticaly almost identical and not taking advantage of that is kind if an oversight to your own fortune.

      It’s like missing a curb by an inch and then getting out if the car to scratch your rims by hand anyway.

        Maybe he wanted to distance himself a bit from his dead name? Maybe he liked his new name more? Maybe why tf you care so much?

        Some people hate the name they were given at birth and don’t want one that’s similar.

        Maybe the idea was to avoid similar-sounding names. It’s easier to make mistakes when a vowel sound is the only difference.

        I’m wondering if you talk to people face to face about these things. Do their eyes tend to glass over? Do they say uh huh alot?

        These statements have the energy of a guy in a coffee shop asking a women to take one of her airpods out just to tell her that Elliot Page picked the wrong name.

        Have you considered that he might like having his name start with E so his initials didn’t change for his signature?
