No, Not THAT One, The Other One!
|
Though all the people in this quiz have achievements of their own, they are often overshadowed by their more famous namesakes. As I have chosen the less well-known holders of each name some of the questions might be a little obscure.

"Win" some People
|
I've given you questions about 'con'men, 'law'men and 'pen' names, now here are some 'win'some people. They all have first or last names starting with 'Win'. Oprah Winfrey and Debra Winger would fit the bill, but they are not featured in this quiz.
