“Uncover the Bizarre Middle Names of Your Favorite Celebrities: You Won’t Believe What They Are!”
Mel Colmcille Gerard Gibson
First of all, Mel Gibson’s first name is just Mel. Not Melvin, not Melanie, just Mel. His name is derived from Saint Mel, a fifth-century Irish saint, and founder of Gibson’s mother’s religious district in Ireland.
His second name, Colmcille, is also the name of an Irish saint, and it’s the name of the Aughnacliffe parish in County Longford where Gibson’s mother was born. That’s a lot of names for one person.
Kiefer William Frederick Dempsey George Rufus Sutherland
Well, if you thought Mel Gibson had a lot of names, wait until you hear what Kiefer Sutherland’s parents did to their son. This guy has more names than Dumbledore (whose full name is Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, by the way). His full name is Kiefer William Frederick Dempsey George Rufus Sutherland.
Sutherland is named after American writer and director Warren Kiefer, who directed his father, Donald Sutherland in his first feature film, Castle of the Living Dead. I’m not sure what’s going on with all those other names.
Matt Paige Damon
Matthew Paige Damon was born to Kent Telfer Damon and Nancy Carlsson-Paige in 1970. His mother is partially Finnish and Swedish. Her original last name was Pajari, but it was changed to Paige when the family moved to America.
Matt Damon’s middle name is really just his mother’s maiden name. Yeah, it’s kind of a girls’ name, but I think Matt Damon wears it well. It would have been cool if he named his daughter Paige.
