Say Goodbye to The Lohans …

Wow, that was way more cryptic than I meant it to be.  Really, all I meant was “say goodbye to the Lohans because they’re all dropping the Lohan family name due to the fact that Michael Lohan is a horrible human being and no one, not even his family, wants to be associated with him anymore,” but that wasn’t nearly as pithy.

But anyway, remember when Michael Jr. changed his last name to Cameron?  He apparently inspired his mother and sisters to leave the Lohan name behind as well.  Dina and little Ali are going with Dina’s maiden name of Sullivan, but Lindsay’s going to do something a little different.  Are you ready for it?  Here’s our favorite girl’s new name:

Lindsay.

That’s it.  Just Lindsay.  She doesn’t need a last name because the only people who call her by her full name anymore are judges and prosecutors, and she’s enough of a sweetheart to make arraignments a little more simple.  Well, I’m sure that’s a reason, but here’s the reason that a “family friend” gave:

“So many of the greatest people in showbiz are known by just their first name. Look at Oprah and Beyonce. Now you can add Lindsay to that list.”

That’s ingenious.  I know that when I think of “the greatest people in showbiz,” Lindsay’s at the top of the list.  I think it also works because of the rarity of her name – just like Oprah and Beyonce, not too many people name their kids Lindsay. Another great call by the clan formerly known as the Lohans.
