Brie Larson's Real Name Isn't What You Think

Publish date: 2024-04-15

There are two model of the story at the back of how Brie Larson (born Brianne Sidonie Desaulniers) were given her level name, but both were rooted in practicality. "Well, my real name is hard to pronounce, and it just got extremely frustrating to correct people all the time," she informed Glamour in 2014. "Plus, I never went by Brianne. It's a name you get called when you're in trouble!" Larson defined the surname she goes by way of is a family name from her great-grandmother.

The other tale has to do along with her cameos on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, as mentioned prior to now. In 2015, Larson recalled on Jimmy Fallon how an American Girl doll she held as a prop in Leno's skits inspired her to switch her name. "The doll is an American [Girl] doll, Kirsten Larson, and my last name is French and very hard to say," Larson defined to Fallon after he showed her a clip of faux commercials she did on Jay Leno (via Today). "I was so sick of it, so as a result I was like, 'I'm changing my name! I'm changing it to Larson so that Kirsten can be in our family!'"

It's obtrusive that Larson made the appropriate determination as a result of her occupation has been unstoppable since her name change and we applaud her kid self for having excellent instincts.
