Olivia Newton-John doesn't count
Newton-John is her last name...it's hyphenated

Posted: 4/4/05 at 4:12amMiddle initials don't count. Hyphenated (married) last names shouldn't count either, because the actress invariably divorces and goes back to her original name. (We'll wait and see if this happens to Jada Pinkett Smith and Courtney Cox Arquette.) Anyway, don't forget GUNTHER, aka Michael James Tyler!!!

I started this thread and I hereby say that hyphenated names DO count! It IS two names, no matter how you look at it.
Oh, and middle initials do NOT count.

Posted: 4/4/05 at 2:21pmSorry Joshua. My mistake. Looking at your original post, all of the names you listed were true three-named actors (First+Middle+Last), so I assumed that was your intention. Since it is up to you to set the rules, I respectfully, defer to you, while continuing to maintain that hyphenated last names are last names, and should not count. (PS: Great new headshot in your fan photos!)

Someone please tell me I'm not the only one who burst out with "why do these rednecks always have three names? John Wilkes Booth, James Earl Ray, Lee Harvey Oswald!" when they saw this thread...
EDIT: Oops. Jeez, she was on the first page, too.
