After the "Old Town Road" rapper sent his tweet, Michael Rapaport gave him a couple of name suggestions.

How about Kareem Abdul Jabbar X?
Or maybe Robert DeNiro X?

Those are original right?

Lil Nas X hasn't just been facing backlash over his name. Dave East called "Old Town Road" super wack, but the 20-year-old said he couldn't care less about his opinion.

Do you think the young rapper should change his name or leave it as is?
