If the spelling of the names is different, there is 99.9 percent of no relation.
D’oh, I misspelled it. The spelling is the same .
A documentary we saw re JFK mentioned that Tippett looked so much like Kennedy that his nickname at the station house was “JFK”. Then the conspiracy theory kicked in that it was actually Tippett in the photos of deceased Kennedy.
And then JFK and Jackie went to hide out at the Onassis estate for a few years until JFK died. The reason: They knew that the mob was out to murder him so he faked his own death. Conveniently, his dopperganger happened to be killed the same day.
It was an entertaining little movie.
