Charles Aznavour created hundreds of songs that millions of people all over the world enjoy now and will for many years to come. And you despise him because he changed his name for his artistic career.
Stalin, who also changed his name but for the political reasons, killed millions of people. And his is your role model.
A case of misplaced values.
