SDCC 2014 The Hobbit Benedict Cumberbatch

Benedict Cumberbatch is an Academy Award-nominated actor for best actor in The Imitation Game as well as a geek icon for his roles in TV’s Sherlock and The Hobbit and Star Trek film franchises, but people still get stuck on his name. There’s been so many versions of it — including Bandersnatch Cumberbund, Bumbershoot Cheeseburger, and Bandicoot Cabbagepatch — that his distinguished moniker has even inspired the creation of a name generator.

On Jimmy Kimmel Live, the host was wondering what would it be like if the actor, who was recently cast as the lead in Marvel’s Doctor Strange, had a different name. So, Jimmy Kimmel got Cumberbatch to try out a few new names, including ones like Chad, Gary Miller (he works in agricultural insurance), and even Groot!

Check out the video of Cumberbatch here below.
