What's Your Real Name?
Posted on 9:52 PM by follow me
It's interesting that so many classic Hollywood starlets changed their names when they got involved in film. Here are just a few examples of some of the beautiful ladies who were not satisfied with their birth names.
Bette Davis - Ruth Davis
Stage name followed by real name:
Carole Lombard - Jane Peters
Joan Crawford - Lucille LaSueur
Rita Hayworth - Margarita Cansino
Lana Turner - Julia Turner
Marilyn Monroe - Norma Mortenson
Barbara Stanwyck - Ruby Stevens
Bette Davis - Ruth Davis
Veronica Lake - Constance Ockleman
Lauren Bacall - Betty Perske
Ginger Rogers - Virginia McMath
Carole Landis - Frances Ridste
I wonder how different their careers would have been if they had kept their original names...
