Famous namesakes
iank - 28/9/07 at 09:54 PM

Following on from this thread link I wonder if anyone else has famous or interesting people with the same/similar names?

I'm a professional body builder, run 6.319 secs, 215.9 mph on the drag strip astride a top fuel bike as current European champion, supply CCD's to astronomers and do watercolours on Anglia TV

I wish!!!

I don't need to do a search for this one.

With the exception of the K bit, my famous namesake is JFK.

Same first name, same second name, forget the Kennedy bit.

A quick google search for my name had no matches, other than me. Although my home address, email address and telephone number are in google. Smooth.

The real bizzare thing is my company address is different yet some website managed to get my home address!

There was a famous Stock Car racer called Alistair Jackson in Northern Ireland I *think* he was hot rod world champion in the seventies, but almost everyone in motorsport asks me am I related once they hear my name.

I'm not wish I had his talent though!

Also googleing Ali Jackson turns up a jazz drummer (that's not a euphemism btw!).

A cricketer, computer programmer and a jazz drummer - oh, and an accountant in Scotland.
I bet they're honoured to be in the company of a smut-peddler.
