Who is your favorite famous bearer of your first name?

[Realfoodfans]

Definitely Julie Andrews - practically perfect in every way!

 

[RangerPooh]

The only famous person that I know of with my name is Keri Russell and I'm not really a fan of hers.

 

[PigletsPal2]

I couldn't think of any famous Colleens off the top of my head, so I Googled.

Actresses Colleen Dewhurst and Colleen Zenk
Writers Colleen Hoover and Colleen McCullough

I was a little taken aback at the number of Colleens who are nude models and/porn stars!

Queen Colleen

 

[Meriweather]

I've never liked my name but I guess it could be worse because my mom said if I was a boy I my name would have been Carroll. Famous people would be Nancy Reagan or Nancy Pelosi but my favorite is Miss Nancy from Romper Room. When I go places and have to give my name for an order like Starbucks they always screw up Nancy so now I give them Sam.

Another Nancy!!
I never liked my name either, I like it okay now.
Never had Starbucks or any other place screw up the name. It is very easy compared to a lot of names out there.

 

[Diznotyzed]

Not what was asked, but I've never particularly liked that Maxwell's silver hammer came down upon my head.

 

[J'aime Paris]

Lori Loughlin

Who doesn't love Aunt Becky?? (Not to mention the hunky Uncle Jesse!)

 

[kimblebee]

Kardashian
Catrall
Campbell (first female Canadian PM)
Basinger

One I dislike: Jung Un

 

[The Vitaphone Queen]

So nice to hear from everyone!!! I'm lying on the couch with a stomach ache (thanks, Lay's Kettle Cooked potato chips) and you guys are cheering me up soooo much. Thanks!

Some famous ones are Ashley Olsen, Ashley Tisdale, and Ashley Judd. I guess of those my favorite would be Ashley Olsen, a sentimental favorite from my childhood.

 

[Kitty 34]

cats....many of them; especially when you call them you usually say "Here Kitty, Kitty, Kitty."

 

[E&Cmom]

Longoria
Peron
Mendez
Gabor

Eta: I misread the question. No idea who my favourite These are just famous people with my name. Good think I didn't add Hiltler's mistress to the list.

 

[RedAngie]

Angela Merkel-German Chancellor (Yeah, I know she pronounces it with a hard G, unlike the J sound in much of the rest of the world.)
Angela Lansbury-actress

But my favorite has to be

Angela Bowie-David Bowie's first wife. She was rumored to be the "Angie" in the Rolling Stones song by that name.

I looked up a list of 100 famous Angelas, and I never heard of most of them. Just like with a poster above, there were about 6 or 7 nude models/porn actresses.

If I had to choose a stripper name, I might go with Angie O'Plastee: Makes Your Heart Skip A Beat

 

[kmb584]

Thinking about this, there isn't a Kristen whose work that I admire. If I had to pick I'd probably go with Kristen Bell because I think she did do a great job voicing Anna in Frozen.

 

[tinkerbellandeeyor]

Brittany spears not a fan of hers though

 

[mantysk8coach]

Melissa Joan Heart and Melissa McCarthy

 

[MrsJackSparrow4Life]

Not a fan of any of the famous people with my first name but J.K. Rowling and I share a middle name which I think is cool.

[megveg]

Her name is spelled differently than mine but I LOVE MEGAN MULLALLY! Im a Meghan, but it still counts lol

 

[Simba's Mom]

The only one anyone seems to recognize is Dorothy from the "Wizard of Oz". It wasn't too bad until it seems that everyone is always asking "Where is your dog, Toto?" or some "cute" comment like that. Not one person has compared me to Dorothy Stratton, the Playboy Playmate of the Year.

 

[porschegrl]

"Porsche" de Rossi
