Your Mom Thinks He’s Hot
You might think that an aspiring singer with an utterly outlandish name like Engelbert Humperdinck would have it legally changed to something a little more normal... like Tom Jones, maybe. In this case, the opposite is true. Although he had the looks and the vocal chops, Arnold George Dorsey made the ballsy move of adopting the name of a real 19th century German composer, and in doing so, made himself instantly memorable.
