Coincidence or what?
I am reading a crime novel called "Love has No Alibi" by Octavus Roy Cohen, first published by MacMillan US in January 1945. The hero's name is Kirk Douglas.

Issur Danielovitch Demsky legally changed his name to Kirk Douglas when he joined the Navy in 1941, according to Prof. Wikipedia, but he didn't become known as an actor until 1946.

If they were to re-issue the book today, would they rename the hero?
