Pamela Anderson is one of the most recognizable names in Hollywood, but the star admitted she has thought a lot about changing her name. "Sometimes I don't want to be Pamela Anderson," the Naked Gun actress candidly said during a December 2025 interview with Vogue Scandinavia. "I want to be Pamela Hyytiäinen. I would like to change my name, but they won't let me." The confession shocked some fans, who have come to know and love the Baywatch star under her given name.
