Which Oscar-winning actor wisely ignored his agent's advice to change his name to the more American-sounding "Lenny Williams" when he was 10?

Answer Leonardo DiCaprio

DiCaprio received his first Oscar nomination as a teen for his role in "What's Eating Gilbert Grape?" A frequent collaborator with Martin Scorsese, he won Best Actor for his role in 2015's "The Revenant" directed by Alejandro Iñárritu. Sadly, his brilliant work on "Growing Pains" was ignored by the Emmys.
