While some are born with star-quality names, others have to get a bit creative. What's the real name of funky pop star, Bruno Mars?
Answer Peter Gene Hernandez
Amazingly, the "That's What I Like" singer was given the nickname Bruno before he could even talk! According to Bruno, he was a chubby baby who resembled the large wrestler, Bruno Sammartino, prompting his father to coin to iconic nickname. The other half of his stage name, Mars, supposedly came from girls telling the star that he's out of this world.
