During a playful game of “Do You Even Know Me?” hosted by LADbible, Aniston confidently guessed Reese’s middle name was “Jane.” She was stunned when Reese revealed her full name as Laura Jeanne Reese Witherspoon. The revelation led to a hilarious exchange, with Aniston exclaiming, “What, who the hell’s Laura!?” and joking that she would start calling her “Laura Jeanne” from now on.
Reese explained that she never legally changed her name—it’s simply her middle name that she uses professionally.
The fun continued as Reese confessed she didn’t know Aniston’s middle name either, which is Joanna. The duo joked about adoption of playful nicknames like “J.J.” as their friendship deepened.
This endearing moment highlighted the close bond between the actresses, filled with humor and affection, reminding fans that even lifelong friendships can hold surprises.
