Prove You Know More Than Just Influencers: Name These 30 Famous Faces
Could you name Leonardo da Vinci just from a picture? We’re about to put your confidence to the test.
In this quiz, you’ll see 30 photos of famous people from all kinds of fields – scientists, political leaders, artists, actors, singers, and writers. Sometimes you might remember only the first name or just the last name, but that’s part of the challenge – because you’ll need to know both to get the answer right.
And to make it more fun (or a bit tricky), you won’t get any answer options. You’ll need to type the names yourself, relying only on what you recognize and know.
Let’s test your memory! 🧠

Number 16 I got wrong as BP did not recognise Milk Snatcher.
Maria Skłodowska Curie was incorrect in 5?? Only Maria Curie? Are you kidding me right now!!?
Maria Skłodowska Curie as Maria Curie??? Are you kidding me right now!!!
Using MargaretFuckingThatcher as the article picture on the main page was rage bait, wasn't it? And I fell for it, didn't I? 😋
#28 should have accepted two answers... Her stage name was Marilyn Monroe, She was born Norma Jeane Mortenson.
Please. For Pete's sake. Her name is Marie Skłodowska-Curie. She had a double last name. She was Polish. Peter Curie was her husband, who was a Frenchman. KEEP HER POLISH NAME. She specifically didn't get rid of it because she wanted Poland to be recognised, and her Polish roots honoured. I know that the Polish last name is hard for English speakers but that's no excuse!
Incredible!! I drew a blank twice: I couldn't remember Tom Hanks' last name or Taylor Swift's full name!!!
Didn't remember Darwin's first name 😭. Made an educated guess for George Washington, not my country.
The pictures of Johnny Depp, Tom Hanks and Jim Carrey are all from when they were on the Graham Norton show. 😆
