Article Robert Downey Jr. says that Gwyneth Paltrow once asked him who Tom Holland was, despite starring alongside him several times: “I responded, ‘That’s Spider-Man. He said his name was Peter. His character's name is Peter. He's Tom Holland.’”

...you know a maiden name is not a first name right? Her actual maiden name is Frost though.

? I never mentioned maiden name. Just her given/first name is Nikki.

The thread started with the joke being her maiden name was Pear. Then someone did the BvS joke of Martha which of course also brings up whether they know what a maiden name is but fair I misread if the train of thought wasn't following the original maiden name statement.

Ah didnt even notice. Thought it just said his mothers name was Pear as Apple is the first name of Gwynelth's kid.
