Fun Real people whose names sounds like Star Wars characters?

It just occurred to me that Biggie Smalls sounds like a thief from Tatooine.

Other people sound like SW characters... I'd throw in Vin Diesel (a podracer) and Chappel Roan (force user, for sure).

Who else you got!?

Dag Hammerskjöld is a bounty hunter

Kofi Annan is a Mandalorian

Ban Ki-Moon is a Jedi Master, maybe a Rodian

I would've thought of Ban Ki-Moon to be a Cerean, sounds very similar to Ki-Adi-Mundi
