the name of the game

ok, take a 5-minute break from clicking all these links. this really shouldn't take that long. its simple - A+B and B+C becomes A+B+C (a last name is the second's first name) - and you need to guess A+B+C. the names are of people, real or fictional, single or collective, with a lot of twists and no logic. see how many people you really know.

but if you must, there's always Google.
