But among the 837 respondents who named an individual or family, 72 percent named current or former presidents including Joe Biden, Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan. Twenty-four percent of the 837 respondents said Biden and his family specifically.
Ten percent of respondents who named an individual or family suggested former President Donald Trump and his family were the U.S. equivalent of British royal family, but a larger share of respondents (13 percent) named the Kennedy family in the survey, which has a margin of error of 4 percentage points.
While some answered with political dynasties, 7 percent of respondents named figures in the entertainment industry, including Willie Nelson and Reba McEntire or Beyoncé and Jay Z. One respondent suggested NFL player Tom Brady; another offered Bill and Melinda Gates.
But among entertainment figures, one name kept cropping up: the Kardashians. The reality TV stars and business women were named by 62 percent of adults who gave a celebrity’s name, or 4% of respondents overall.
But the actual royal family was not far from the minds of some respondents.
Nine percent said they viewed the British royal family members -- including Prince Charles, Prince William and Queen Elizabeth II -- as the American royal family. But a nearly equal share (8 percent) said the United States can claim Prince Harry and Meghan as American royals.
