“ ‘Tis but thy name that is my enemy…What's in a name? That which we call a rose. By any other name would smell as sweet,” wrote Shakespeare in Romeo & Juliet.   But apparently thy name is no longer so sweet for actor Kevin Bacon. 

Bowing to pressure from various Muslim groups such as CAIR (Center for American–Islamic Relations), the iconic actor and musician has publically vowed to change his last name.  The reason: although many Muslims, like most Americans, watch films featuring the seemingly omnipresent actor, his last name has become a source of “discomfort,” as it is a byproduct of pork, a strictly forbidden meat within the Islamic faith.

He can change it to Don Draper.
