Shah Rukh Khan, nicknamed 'SRK' and 'the King of Bollywood', was born in India and started out as a TV actor before appearing in his first film, 'Deewana', in 1992. As well as acting, he also owned a cricket team, the Kolkata Knight Riders.

Answer: Women's Auxiliary Air Force

Noor Inayat Khan was born in Russia to an Indian father and an American mother. Her family moved to England and then France, but were forced to leave due to the Nazi occupation. When they returned to England, Khan joined the WAAF and was trained as a radio operator.

She was stationed in France as part of the SOE, and given the codenames 'Madeleine' and 'Nurse'. She relayed information over the radio between France and the UK, continuing even after several of her colleagues had been arrested. Although Khan managed to evade the Nazis at first by being constantly on the move, she was betrayed - possibly by Henri Déricourt, a French double agent - and executed at Dachau in 1944.

The Nazis classified her as 'highly dangerous' due to her work.

Answer: Jacksonville Jaguars

Originally born in Pakistan, Shahid Khan moved to the US in order to study Industrial Engineering at the University of Illinois. Whilst at university, he worked for Flex-n-Gate, a car manufacturing company, which he later bought and merged with his own manufacturing business, Bumper Works.

The Jaguars were not the only sports team in which Khan took an interest; he also bought Fulham FC, a British football team, from Mohamed Al-Fayed in 2013.

Answer: Genghis Khan

In this instance, 'Khan' is a title rather than a surname; Genghis Khan was a Khagan, or Great Khan, on the level of an emperor. The Mongol Empire encompassed Siberia, the Caucasus Region and China, spreading as far as Iran, Iraq, Ukraine and India; after Khan's death, Mongol troops even attacked Poland and Korea. It is estimated that up to 40 million people were killed as a result of Khan's conquests. Khan himself has become a legendary figure, of whom very few, if any, accurate portraits exist.

Genghis Khan died in 1227, the cause of his death unknown; pneumonia and falling off his horse are but two of the possible causes suggested. He was succeeded by his third son, Ögedei Khan, in 1229.
