It creates more confusion in our heads when the two-person(of the same surname) have the same taste of talent and follow the same career(hmmm…).We unknowingly make guesses like “maybe they are a couple, or maybe they belong to the same family or maybe they are relatives” and things like that.
The same thing might have happened in our heads when we heard the names; Alexander Wang and Vera Wang (one of the celebrated personalities in the fashion industry) for the first time. Many of us might have speculated that they share a mom and son relationship, right? I did too…
But Nah, they are not related like not even a percent of what we thought them to be. Just as common in other people, Alexander Wang and Vera Wan just happen to share the same last name and talent.
