When he first cut off his hair years ago, he auctioned it on eBay with the starting price of $12,000 and it ended up selling for $40,000 according to Teen Vogue. But rest assured, he donated the money from it to a charity so it was for a good cause. Keanu Reeves Almost Had A Totally Different Stage Name You may already know that "Keanu" is a Hawaiian name that means "cool breeze over the mountains". But Reeves told Jimmy Fallon in an interview that when he first got to Hollywood, his agents immediately wanted him to change it. He said that he went to the ocean to get ideas, and he came up with "Chuck Spadina". They didn't like that one so he went back and then thought of "Templeton Page Taylor". But when they didn't like that either, they let him keep his own name, which totally fits into Hollywood today.
