would not have clue lol

Actually it is spelled M-A-R-L-O-N not Marlin, like the fish.

His real name is Marlon Brando, Jr. son of Marlon Brando, Sr. and Dorothy Pennebacker. His wiki biography was pasted above. If you are interested in his ancestry though, here is a link to a family tree available online.

I always warn people that unless a tree is chock full of sources, to take any information on an online family tree as a clue. Genealogy is about documentation and a tree with no sources is essentially useless, until someone can look at the primary sources and document them.
