Syvette Wimberly Sued Lara Madden for Using her Name

Syvette Wimberly filed a lawsuit against a porn star Lara Madden claiming she stole her name, KPRC Local 2 reported Sunday.

Lara Madden, 25, is a former Houstonian who has appeared in about a dozen X-rated movies under the stage name "Syvette Wimberly."

The real Syvette Wimberly was one of Madden's classmates at Kingwood High School. The women knew each other in the ninth grade.

"I imagine she knew the name and maybe thought it sounded catchy and was unique," Wimberly said.(source)
