In the 1950s, Ernesto Borgna had to become Ernest Borgnine, Issur Danielovich had to become Kirk Douglas, Daniel Kaminsky became Danny Kaye, etc. Then the issue basically was "we don't want any non-Anglo names". Now different ethnicities are, at least overtly, accepted, irrespective of length (Matthew McConaughey has 1 more syllable than Alden Ehrenreich).

in the 90s if you wanted to make it as an actor you had to be called like brad pitt or tom cruise. 2 syllables tops. now you’ve gotta be alden ehrenreich or ansel elgort or timothee chalamet. anything goes. madness
