The world might know her as Reese Witherspoon, but her closest friends and family have been calling her by a different name since long before she became a staple in Hollywood. That’s right: Reese Witherspoon isn’t actually Reese Witherspoon. Per Women’s Health, her full name is Laura Jeanne Reese Witherspoon, but she decided to ditch her first two names and keep “Reese” just so she can sound more “Hollywood.” And it’s a good thing Witherspoon shortened her name the way she did, especially after the incident she had back in 2013 when she was arrested for disorderly conduct. According to The Guardian, she repeatedly yelled at the arresting officer, “Do you know by name?” along with, “You’re about to find out who I am.” Clearly, the officer knew who Witherspoon was (along with the rest of the country) as the next day she made headlines for her arrest along with the arrest of her husband James Toth for DUI, as reported by Variety.

And while Witherspoon later admitted that she felt both shame and embarrassment for her behavior, one celebrity blogger took it upon himself to give her yet another name change inspired by the events of what happened that night.
