Out of inspiration? Well hopefully this will cheer you up and make you feel inspired by these quirky choices.
It all started when John-Lee Bottom and his wife Arlyn married in 1969. They changed their last names to Phoenix to symbolise a new beginning, rising from the ashes, after being disillusioned with a religious cult they were part of.
With their newly inspired last name Phoenix, they would give birth to five children, two of them who eventually get a lot of recognition in the acting world. They are:
son River
daughter Rain
son Joaquin (Leaf)
daughter Summer
daughter Liberty
River Phoenix and his brother Joaquin would be the ones getting attention from Hollywood, becoming the first brother duo to be nominated for an oscar.
