FRANK


Meaning of FRANK in English

Term used when an actor or actress looks exactly like a better or more famous actor or actress. It comes from a lot of lesser-known siblings being named Frank, most notably Frank Stallone and Frank Shamrock. NOTE : This does not apply to special cases such as Nick Nolte / Gary Busey because they are the same person. See Niarcky Buolstey. Term can also be used for things other than thespians, but works best when used with an easily recognizable last name. Example: GOOD : She looks like Frank Pinkett Smith. Oakland. Man that's like San FRANKcisco. Who is this guy, Frank Malkovich? BAD : That girl looks like Frank Roberts. (Referring to a Julia Roberts look-a-like.)
