Planning a sleepover party for DD with five of her friends, all aged 9 / 10 and I am prepping a bunch of games.

One of the games is Who Am I where you stick the name of someone famous on their forehead and then they have to guess who they are by asking yes or no questions to the rest of the group.

I'm struggling to think of people and characters they will all know! So far I have:
Taylor Swift
Harry Potter
Ed Sheeran
Elsa from Frozen
The King
Dwayne the Rock Johnson
Their teacher
Donald Trump

I need around 10-15 more names where there is a good chance most of them will know who it is - all suggestions gratefully received.

@Nitw1t Henry VIII and Jeff Bezos have gone on the cards 😂

I've added in some of musical, historical and character based suggestions so I've got a pretty good base now and as @SausageRoll2020 suggested I've left half of the cards blank for them to write their own.

Thanks again everyone

My niece was nine, she kept asking me if I knew whatever random youtuber she idolised at that point.

I told her they were just people who are putting free videos on youtube.

So who knows
