Ah, but you have to try the actors' names (notice I said Farrah and not "Jill"). Of course, Maureen McCormick ("Marcia") didn't exactly spawn a slew of Maureens. But stick with solid, knockout stars whose real names were common household terms then. I want to try Donny, Shawn, and a few other teen idols next. I suspect Ozzy won't make a showing, however.
