Charlie Sheen – Carlos Irwin Estevez

I know what you’re thinking: Who the hell is Carlos!? Weeeell, if you didn’t know this about actor Martin Sheen and his family (because I’m sure you didn’t care), they have a Spanish and Irish background. Martin himself was actually born Ramon Antonio Gerardo Estévez, and continued to pass Spanish names on to his children (hence, Emilio and Carlos, who is now known as “Charlie”). But following in the direction of his father, once Carlos made the decision to get involved in acting, he decided to change his name to something more…hmmm…how do I say?…white. His father had adopted the last name “Sheen” in honor of Catholic archbishop Fulton J. Sheen.
