Actor Tony Hiu Jong Giroux is probably best known for his role as Adil in Freeform's "Motherland: Fort Salem," but he's also a dancer and filmmaker. His most recent directing effort was a documentary series titled "My Name Is," which examines the pitfalls and struggles of navigating a Western culture with a non-Western name. We get into what stories our names tell about us, and what kinds of choices we make about our names as we move through the world, and we find out which MFS character he'd most like to have with him at a high-stakes blackjack table.
