Name Chains – All 5+

All name chains from my Name Chains series, from 13 to 5 in a row! Every two consecutive fields make up the name of a famous person, meaning there are the names of 4 to 12 well-known people in each row. Tip: If you don't recognise any, just guess!
Not all these names fit into the western first name–surname scheme.
All these people are very famous, feel free to look them up. The criterion for notoriety is having a Wikipedia article in at least 30 languages as of April 2022.

Really tough. I'm impressed you got that many first / last name combinations.
