Celebrities with Extraordinarily Descriptive Names
by Some celebrities have very descriptive names. They are perfect for the person when made into an anagram. Monica Lewinsky turns into a “nice silky woman”, but other famous names are not so fortunate.
Some very famous people have quite wonderful names. What makes them so special is that when you take all the letters in them and rearrange them, you can form quite descriptive anagramatic phrases.
The notorious Adolf Hitler doesn’t sound quite so frightening, or tough, when you take the letters of his name and rearrange them.
Adolf Hitler: Heil, Old Fart!
Then there’s the very friendly Monica Lewinsky who is not best known for her discretion in romantic liaisons, or her good choice when it comes to partners.
Monica Lewinsky: Nice, silky woman. (Really?)
Clint Eastwood has an amazing name which describes his movie career very well.
Clint Eastwood: Old West Action. (There’s not much you can add to that. It’s the perfect name.)
Then there’s Jasmin Le Bon who is certainly very long and thin, but how did anyone know she would grow into her name as the years passed?
Jasmin Le Bon: Mainly bones. (Oops! Wrong kind of Jasmin)
I’ve always thought that Eric Clapton was an energetic, rocking kind of guy but apparently not, if his name is anything to go by.
Eric Clapton: Narcoleptic (Sssh! Don’t wake him up.)
Camilla Parker Bowles has become very well know since her marriage to the heir to the throne, Prince Charles. I make no comment on the anagram formed from her name. You never know, I might end up imprisoned in the Tower of London.
Camilla Parker Bowles: Workable caramel lips. (Ah, isn’t that sweet, and what lovely finger puppets of the Royal pair.)
Then there is Placido Domingo who has a way of looking very serious and unhappy at times. Can someone please turn the volume up as he can’t hear what’s going on. . His name reveals the truth,
Placido Domingo: God, I do complain! (Loudly, and usually waviing a stick.)

Like Anne said! I was a little surprised that you include old Adolf as a celebrity, but whatever!

Thanks for that RJ.
On the subject of Hitler as a celebrity, I deliberately used a cartoon type image instead of a photo. I suppose it depends on your definition of the word.
Mine includes those who have become celebrities via work, appearance in the media, or even by infamy. He certainly fits the last group.
