Celebrities You Never Knew Changed Their Names

Ralph Lauren – Real Name: Ralph Reuben Lifshitz

Many people are not familiar with the face of Ralph Lauren. Still, they most certainly know the name of the iconic fashion designer who built one of the most successful fashion empires in the world by developing his brand around the image of a luxury American lifestyle.

You’d think the billionaire business mogul changed his last name because of his brand, but it goes way back. Originally named Ralph Reuben Lifshitz, he and his brother Jerry ditched their given last name for Lauren after years of bullying and teasing in school.
