This is a list of the full names of people and fictional characters whose first name is not generally used when referring to them, and consequently is not common knowledge.
When considering if a person is more commonly known by their full name or a common name, some consideration should be made of the number of times each name is used in published sources. The same standards that are currently used for redirects can also be applied. If Thomas Sean Connery redirects to Sean Connery, this can be taken as community consensus that "Sean Connery" is, in fact, the more commonly known name.
