I know an Eva Mendez.
Even though, my favorite "almost hit" was a coworker at my previous workplace whose name was Mike Rozelski. He had the green Mike Wazowski from Monsters Inc as his name tag on the door

My little brother had this highly irritating friend named Steven Wilson. He came over one time and just bitched about how he would rather be at home playing Halo.

I once spoke to a customer named Kevin Moore.

He's famous here, that counts as far as DTF is concerned!

Michael: Yeah, well, at least your name isn't Michael Bolton.
Samir: You know, there's nothing wrong with that name.
Michael: There *was* nothing wrong with it... until I was about twelve years old and that no-talent ass clown became famous and started winning Grammys.

I was at a dinner thing one time, and the guest speaker was named Ronald McDonald. He looked really different without the red wig and yellow clothes. Turns out he was some expert on something, but mostly I think his life must be a living hell with a name like that.
