Ron “The Hedgehog” Jeremy

Jerry Springer?

When I added it to my list, I just did a quick check on Wikipedia to see if the animal name was in their original name. I didn’t take the time to read why it might not be; I just put it under Nicknames. I suppose I could rename the group as Not-Original Name or something like that.

Don’t see why it should.

And he’s in the OP list.

Sure.

I certainly have read some of his books.

Another one in the OP. Although someone did submit someone with the last name of Tiger. That’s a higher spot in the hierarchy, so it displaces the golfer.

Joaquín Phoenix.

No, not that Phoenix.

“Gorilla” Monsoon - Professional wrestler

Not sure if George “The Animal” Steele counts.

Sorry missed that.

Are there any Lyons on the list?

Bad Bunny

I thought of Merv Griffin

Jeff “Skunk” Baxter

How niche is famous? Would Nancy Guppy count because she was somewhat well-known in Seattle in the 1990s.
