It is known that some celebrities do not choose to appear by their real names, as they may call themselves pseudonyms, or they are satisfied that their first name is their nickname, and it is clear that Tom Cruise chose to change their names upon his arrival in Hollywood, and he made his way in the world of cinema and films. and fame.
There is no doubt that Cruz is one of the most prominent actors in the world, as his films were able to achieve wide fame, including: the series “Top Gun” and “Mission Impossible”, to become a well-known star in Hollywood, with great wealth, as reported by “Variety” magazine. Cruz earned $100 million alone from his hit movie “Top Gun: Maverick,” which was released in 2022.
Although acting was not Cruz’s first career choice, as he wanted to become a Catholic monk, following starring in the play “Guys and Dolls” in high school, offers flocked to him. When he reached the age of 19, he had signed with a business agent, following which he got a role in the movie “Endless Love” in 1981, following which he took steady steps towards success in every work he presented.
But does anyone know that Tom Cruise used to have a name longer than that, and that he gave it up because of his father?
In this regard, “The List” says that Cruise’s name at birth was “Thomas Cruise Mapother IV”, but early in his career he shortened his name for two reasons: one commercial, the other personal.
The personal reason is that his father was “bad” and bullied his children, so Cruz wanted to drop the name “Mappother” from his name, and decided not to use it because he wanted to sever ties with his father.
