That's right, I am CHANGING my "Stage Name" of Danilo Zanetti. Why? Because there's another Danilo Zanetti involved in the Entertainment Business. Now, I don't know much about this other Danilo Zanetti but form what my Agent has told me, his last "credited work" dated all the way back to the 60's. So my Agent and I are not certain whether this person is still alive or whether he is dead. And since I don't want to cause confusion between me and the other Danilo Zanetti then, I'd figure I'd change my "Stage Name" to Danilo Paige. Yep. From now on, I will be known as Danilo Paige. The Paige comes from Diamond Dallas Page, obviously and since Diamond Dallas Page was one of my favorite Wrestlers, I thought I'd "pay tribute" to him by using Paige as my last name. So, what does this mean for me? I'm going to STOP using the Danilo Zanetti name and I will have to DROP the www.danilozanetti.com Website so that I can TRANSFER IT OVER to the new Website, www.danilopaige.com which should be up and running very soon. Plus, I have to re-register for some Online Services including IMDB, and I gotta do a ton of paperwork so this is not going to be an easy process for me to do. P.S: I am also changing my "Instant Star" gimmick to a "Superstar" gimmick. If not, I will let you all know if I think of something else instead.

Boy oh boy. I went to imdb.com to see if this other Danilo Zanetti had an obituary date but I couldn't find it. I also went on pages that are similar to imdb that list this other Danilo Zanetti and I also couldn't find his obituary date or birth date. Another thing I noticed while I was doing my research on this was that all the work that this other Danilo Zanetti did is entitled in Italian and not in English as I had thought of at first. So it's best that you do what you are doing right now bro before you get hit with a lawsuit that cites "confusion" between you and the other Danilo Zanetti.

So, you are changing your "Stage Name" because someone else in the Entertainment Industry has/had it? I would do the same if I were in your shoes but before you ever choose a different "Stage Name" choose one that doesn't "confuse people" or one that doesn't resemble another Actor's Stage Name. A fine example of this would be the name of Adult Film Star Mary Carey. She was going to trademark her "Stage Name" but Mariah Carey prevented Carey from doing so because of "confusion" between both Women. So if you want to use "Danilo Paige" as your "Stage Name" then make sure it's not similar to any other Actor/Actress "Stage Name" that sound similar to yours for example, Daniel Paige. Choose carefully though. You haven't used Danilo Paige recently have you? Or have you already done so?

I did a search and only managed to find one
Athos Danilo Zanetti
Who worked as a Production Designer, Set Director and Art Director during the 50's and 60's. I’m not sure if this would/could actually pose a problem as many people in the entertainment industry have the same or similar names and it doesn’t cause an issue being as how they work in different areas of the business. Do what you feel is best though this guy hasn’t worked in any capacity since the 60's and those were his job functions, he isn’t listed as an actor if this is in fact the same person.
