What’s in a name change?
For nearly a decade Aubrey Anderson-Emmons graced TV screens as the wise-cracking Lily Tucker-Pritchett on Modern Family. However as the 18-year-old embarks on her journey as a musician, she’s doing so with a new moniker: Frances Anderson.
“Frances is actually part of my legal name—it’s my middle name, and it’s after my mom’s old family friend,” she recently told E! News ahead of August 8 release of her EP Drown. “I thought, one, it was bit shorter than Aubrey Anderson-Emmons. I do have a long, hyphenated last name.”
But that wasn’t the only motivator for the name change. “I wanted to switch it up and I wanted people to see a new side of me,” Frances continued. “I wanted to create a space, specifically just for music. And I’m so excited for everybody to hear the songs on the EP, and I’m so grateful.”
Of course, the teen is far from the only star to go by a different name professionally.
