Saying the name of a famous person (celebrity, musician, actor, public figure, etc.) on a television show, or movie instead of that person physically appearing on the program, so they just have a line of dialog making it seem like a very famous person is getting ready to appear on the show, or is in the next room, or just off the cameras view.
On a crime drama a paparazzi sees a body in an alley near a high-end night club and goes around the corner to check it out. As he does, the camera goes off the pretty people and follows him. A fellow paparazzi hollers, "Hey dude, get back here; Kim & Khloe Kardashian just pulled up and got out of a Limo."

Doing a Nameo saves the show a large amount of money that they would otherwise have to pay out to get the famous people to do a cameo on the show.

All I have in this world is my name and my balls entered common parlance through the movie Scarface and is one of its most oft quoted lines. It’s amazing that as of 2023 C.E. this famous sentence has not been entered into the Urban Dictionary. Well, all I have in this world is my name, my balls, and my ability to write. And it is in that spirit — the spirit of THE COME UP — that I submit this definition.
All I have in this world is my name and my balls. Todo lo que tengo en este mundo es mi nombre y mis juevos — and I don’t anyone shit on either of these.
