Name changes in Hollywood are about as normal as botox and silicon.

Just look at Puff Daddy.

All the same man (viaCheat Sheet).

Close up of pop star, Fergie

Perhaps it’s something they’re putting in the water in Hollywood.

Or it could be summed up as artistic expression.

But it’s almost a part-time job keeping track of what celebrities are calling themselves these days.

A name swap isn’t just for the rappers.

It’s for pop artists as well.

Take Fergie for example.

It’s her stage name as they say in the world of entertainment.

The name is not too far from her roots though.

The singer grew up with the nickname, Fergie.

Her father and grandfather were also called the same (viaThe Famous People).

But what’s her real name?

The “My Humps” singer’s real name is Stacy Ann Ferguson (viaThe Famous People).

Stacy Ann is a fine name.

Alas, even a judge and court couldn’t make the singer’s new legal name stick.

It’s been a merry-go-round of name changes for this “Big Girls Don’t Cry” pop star.

But as we stated earlier, she’s in good company with her fellow chameleon colleagues in show biz.
