-Yes, I had to work at 4:00 a.m. as a 10-Year-old.
-[ Laughs ] -It was great.
It was my favorite day as a child.
Let's go to Rockefeller Center.
-Wait, that's right. You did that.
Was that the end of the movie?
-It's near the end of the movie. I don't know.
I don't really watch that movie anymore.

It's like a thing.
It's like, you got a new girlfriend,
you're flipping through the channels,
and then there's "Home Alone."
And she's like, "Huh?
Huh, you want to watch it?"
-"You want to watch 'Home Alone'
with Macaulay Culkin, don't you?"
She's like, "yes." -[ Laughs ]
But do you do it?
-Yeah, I mean, I have indulged that.
And most of the time, I'm just muttering my lines
under my breath.
Like, "Keep the change, you filthy animal."
Like, you know... [ Laughter ]
-Come on!
Listen, w-w-whatever gets her motor running, I guess.
-Ah, yeah. -[ Chuckles ]

-Yes, it's a very popular seller.
-Yeah, that's a good one.
-[ Chuckles ]
-I've seen a photo of you wearing the shirt.
-Yeah, you know, it's funny when other people wear it --
I mean, it's funny in it's own right --
but it's weird when I wear it.
'Cause I spend a lot of time
trying not to call attention to myself.
People are like, "Are you Macaulay Culkin?"
I'm like, "No, no. That's not me," you know?
And just like, "I'm pretty sure, though.
I'm pretty sure you are."
-But you're doing this thing also on the website now.
This is an actual thing you guys can participate in.
You are actually gonna legally change your middle name.
-Yes. Okay.
So, I was staring my passport recently and stuff,
and I was looking over my middle name.
My current middle name is Carson.
[ Irish accent ] But you have to say it Macaulay Carson Culkin.
[ Normal voice ] Very Irish. -Oh, yes.
[ Irish accent ] Macaulay Carson Culkin.
-[ Irish accent ] Macaulay Carson Culkin.
[ Normal voice ] And I thought, like, you know,
I should probably spruce up my name a little bit.
So, yes, you can onto the BunnyEars.com website.
You can vote on my new middle name.
We've narrowed it down to five options.
I've been polling friends, family, everything.
And so...
-All right. Here are the five.
The first one -- middle name would be "Macaulay Culkin."
-Yeah. -So, you'd be --
-Macaulay Macaulay Culkin Culkin.
-So, if somebody comes up to me at the airport,
and says, "Excuse me, are you Macaulay Culkin?"
I would say, "Well, Macaulay Culkin
is my middle name.
[ Laughter ]
I think that's great. -Uh-huh.
-Um, second option you have is, uh...
"Shark Week." -Yeah.
Shark Week, yeah.
-Macaulay Shark Week Culkin. -I could live with that.
It's very seasonal, but, you know, yeah.
-Now, do you enjoy Shark Week? -I've never seen it, so...
-That's a good way to be named after.
This one might be my favorite.
Macaulay Kieran Culkin. -Yes.
-That's your brother -- -My brother Kieran
suggested Kieran, so...
I was like, "Yeah. Okay." He's obviously got good taste.
-Yeah, Kieran Culkin. I like Kieran.
This one is interesting--
Macaulay The McRib Is Back Culkin.
-[ Chuckles ] Yep! [ Laughter ]
Yep. -I might have to --
Well, Questlove likes that one. I don't know.
-Yeah, I mean. Look. It is back.
It is back. -Yeah.
Talking about seasonal, but yes. Yeah, yeah.
-So, it would say, like, "The Mac is Back."
The McRib is back. -Yes. The McRib is back.
And you just tried recently a McRib, and it's...
-Yeah, I just tried one finally. -What'd you think?
-Yeah, it's a McRib. I mean...
-Yes, it's tasty. -It's certainly back.
You know? -Okay. That's good.
I'll take that as an endorsement.
-All right, the last one is Macaulay Publicity Stunt Culkin.
-Yes. -[ Laughs ]
So, that's just kind of calling out what the bit is.
But no, I think it's --
-My girlfriend suggested that one.
-Are you legally going to do this?
-Yes, I'm legally going to change my name.
So, seriously, go to BunnyEars.com

'cause I will legally change it. -What do you guys think?
I'm gonna send my vote right now.
