Mmm... Zelazny... I miss him muchly.
I also changed my name, albeit in a fairly minor way. When I first started
out as an actor, I discovered there was already a Jason Thompson registered.
I wasn't really fond of the idea of changing the spelling, (Jaysen
Thompson?! Ugh.) so I stole my brother's first name and made it a middle
name.
Oh yeah, and for the record, my original middle names were Ruben and Elroy.
(Those crazy Canadians and their double middle names.)
Although, I was always sort of fond of Elroy... at the very least it let me
sign my initials as JET on all those damn arcade games I played as a kid.
