TROY GARITY's name probably doesn't ring a bell. That was the intent of his parents--Jane Fonda and current California state senator TOM HAYDEN--when they gave it to him. As a fame shield, it didn't work too well. On one of his first days at school, he says, a kid came up to him and said, "Guess what? Jane Fonda's son is here!"

(Not to mention the freedom of any grandmother at Disney World to snap pictures of a famous person who passes by.) Legal experts point out, moreover, that most abuses can be dealt with by current criminal laws (against trespassing...
