Emma Stone has recently expressed her desire to be addressed by her real name, Emily. 

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Stone revealed her preference for being called Emily, stating that it would be "so nice" if people referred to her by her actual name.

The revelation came as a surprise to many, as Emma Stone has been widely recognized and celebrated under her stage name.

However, it appears that her decision to go by the name Emma was primarily due to professional reasons. 

Another member of the Screen Actor's Guild had already claimed the name Emily, compelling Stone to adopt an alternative moniker.

During the interview, Stone engaged in a conversation with Nathan Fielder about their TV series, The Curse. 

Fielder mentioned how he had messaged Stone, expressing his pride in her Oscar win. He humorously remarked that even if she were to lose, she would still be an Oscar winner in his eyes.

The interviewer pointed out that Stone had already won an Oscar, to which Fielder responded by suggesting that he would refer to her as Emily from that point forward.

Emma Stone appreciated the kind gesture and expressed her openness to being called Emily.

She shared that those she collaborates closely with already use that name, and she finds it revitalizing. 

Stone mentioned that her co-star Nathan Fielder refers to her as "Em," which she finds simpler and more comfortable.

Many actors also use stage names instead of their real names.

This revelation sheds light on the fact that actors often adopt stage names for various reasons, and Emma Stone is no exception.

Several well-known figures in the entertainment industry, such as Jamie Foxx, Drake, and Lady Gaga, have also adopted names different from their given ones.

This year, "Poor Things" won four Oscars, including Emma Stone's Best Actress award for her portrayal of Bella Baxter. This marked her second win in the category, following her previous victory for "La La Land" in 2017.
