Something as simple as your name can bring on all sorts of problems.

A quick scroll down to the byline of this article will show that we're experts in this area. But have you ever dreamed about what it would be like to share a name with one of the most famous people on the planet?

Well Taylor Swift, a 30 year old photographer from Seattle, Washington is living that dream, or nightmare depending on your point of view.

Speaking with local news station, KOMO 4, the other Taylor Swift tells his story. 

Swift describes how sharing a name with the pop princess comes with its pros and cons. The pros being that he gets sent plenty fan mail telling him he's beautiful and that he inspires people.
