I was like going through myspace and noticed ALOT of dudes are calling themselves "Prince" . I don't know why it bothers me ; but it does. Lol can someone be famous with the same name as another person if it's not their legal name ? or can Prince sue . [just a thought and boredom mixed into one]

if they changed their name to prince's full name to be like him, i guess he can sue but if the change their first name to prince, they're not really doing anything wrong

Prince has not copyrighted his name, but wouldn't that be nonsense? At least the name "Prince" is popular. I haven't heard of anyone being named "Madonna" except Madonna herself and the Virgin Mary.

....they could also just be named Prince....

I know a Prince who works at a CVS in West Philly. It says on his nametag

i wanted to call my son Prince, but my wife didnt want a bar of it, so we called him Jasper

MySpace and every other space. Will Smith comes to mind.

Shit I know three men named Prince:

1. My great uncle - he's now deseased but his first name was Prince

2. A lawyer that worked for the FCC here in D.C.

3. A guy I went to junior high school with.

Last time I ran into Michael Jackson ( don't ask ),
I asked him, "Yo, thriller-man, don't U have a boy calling himself 'Prince'."
He just went "Please... the Kid is not my son."

It's funny i just launched a thread about artists putting Prince içn their names

lol I was just wondering ; I want to name first son Prince anyway.
