    Welcome to a newcomer to the rebus thread, and cudos fo a job well done! @Charlemagne1333 was soooooo close, I’m certain he’d have got the answer. Leonard Slye was the real name of Roy Rogers!

    As I said, you were sooooo close, and @TasMike had the benefit of your brainstorming. Leonard Slye was Roy Rogers real name. Appetite for more?

    Another rebus in which you need the interpret the given (birth) name of the individual in order to arrive at the professional stage name. The individual I’m after is neither individual shown in the clues.

    Well! You almost have the answer for her birth name! In fact, her birth name is included amongst the suppositions that you have made. Once you discard the non-relevant words, arrive at her (yes, it IS a she) birth name and Google it, you’ll have the answer.

    I only did the easy part... I’m pretty sure you’ve got the right answer. I didn’t think to develop ‘Lucy’ into ‘Lucille’

    Googling ‘Lucy Wood Smith’ doesn’t really come up with anything!

    I thought about using Lucille Ball. But I thought that might be a bit obvious. Then I thought about using Lucille Starr. But I thought for sure nobody who frequents this MB would have heard about her, being Canadian as she is.

    Anyway, I’m proud of you all. Maybe my next one will stick you. ;)

    @Charlemagne1333 deserves the other half of his star for his efforts!
