namecasting

Calling a character from one show by the name of a character in a different show that the actor/actress played.
As in "Did you see Captain Kirk in $#*! My Dad Says?"

Or "Hey what is Crixus (from Spartacus) doing on the island in Arrow?"

Or "Wow, Sylar is on American Horror Story." "Damn it, stop namecasting already! The actor's name is... um, Spock I think."

Just another namecard 

A term to describe a situation when you have something that once belonged to a person, usually a performer, actor, etc. (who is now dead) but has little to no value because he/she was not widely known.
Damn... I thought this hat that that saxophonist gave to me at Grand Central station would be pricey now since he's dead... but I guess its just another namecard...
