9 names that celebrities have used to go incognito

Being a celebrity means everyone knows your name. It's a sense of universal recognition that allows people like Beyonce, Kylie Jenner, and Rihanna to navigate the world with the knowledge that they are literally household names, but unable to do things like go to the grocery store or stay at hotels.For some stars, this means getting crafty when it comes to checking in for an overnight stay or going out to eat. For others, the exact names that they use on a daily basis and the names that have made them famous aren't the names that they were originally intended to have. These 10 celebrities' aliases may surprise you for more reasons than one.

During an interview with Jimmy Fallon, Larson said that her modified last name actually came from her favorite American Girl doll, Kirsten Larson, who she still memorializes on Instagram.

This could be due to the name of the character in "Almost Famous," the Beatles' famous song, or the street in Liverpool, England, which would make sense considering her love of the London Bridge.
