At Santa Monica High School, he showed an early interest in acting, making amateur [[Super 8 film]]s with his brother Emilio and school friends [[Rob Lowe]] and [[Sean Penn]] under his birth name. A few weeks before his scheduled graduation from Santa Monica High School, Sheen was expelled from school for poor grades and attendance. He then chose to become an actor, and adopted the stage name Charlie Sheen. His father had adopted the surname Sheen in honor of the [[Catholic Church|Catholic]] [[archbishop]] and theologian [[Fulton J. Sheen]], and Charlie was an English form of his given name Carlos.<ref name="allmovie">{{Cite news|url=https://movies.nytimes.com/person/65046/Charlie-Sheen/biography|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110303151507/http://movies.nytimes.com/person/65046/Charlie-Sheen/biography|url-status=dead|archive-date=March 3, 2011|department=Movies & TV Dept.|work=[[The New York Times]]|date=2011|title=Charlie Sheen|access-date=March 21, 2009}}</ref><ref name="LM">{{cite web|url=http://www.latina.com/entertainment/buzz/true-identity-charlie-sheen-tracing-roots-estevez-family|title=The True Identity of Charlie Sheen: Tracing The Roots of The Estevez Family|last=Ramirez|first=Erika|date=February 28, 2011|work=[[Latina magazine]]|access-date=February 28, 2011}}</ref>
