2. Christopher Columbus - Navigator and Explorer who landed in the Americas in 1492

...and the most famous man named Chris or Christopher is...

1. Chris Rock - Actor and Comedian (Chris Rock: Kill The Messenger, Madagascar, I Think I Love My Wife)

Not making the top 10 were Chris Columbus - Film Director (Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, I Love You Beth Cooper, Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief); Chris Cooper - Actor (Adaptation, American Beauty, Seabiscuit); Chris Elliott - Actor and Writer (Late Night With David Letterman, Cabin Boy, Get A Life!); Chris Farley - Actor (Saturday Night Live, Tommy Boy, Black Sheep); Chris Hardwick - TV Host and Actor (Web Soup, Singled Out, Wired Science); Chris Hoy - Olympic Games Gold Medal Winner in Track Cycling; Chris Kattan - Actor (Saturday Night Live, A Night at the Roxbury, Corky Romano); Chris Wallace - News Anchor (Fox News Sunday, Meet the Press); Chris Ware - Comic Book Artist and Illustrator (Acme Novelty Library, Jimmy Corrigan the Smartest Kid on Earth); Christopher Buckley - Author (Thank You for Smoking, Florence of Arabia, Supreme Courtship); Christopher Cuomo - News Anchor (Good Morning America); Christopher Guest - Actor, Director and Writer (This Is Spinal Tap, Waiting for Guffman, Best in Show); Christopher Moltisanti - Character on the TV Series The Sopranos; Christopher Moore - Author (Fool, Lamb, Fluke).

A pretty good mix of occupations for the top ten Chris or Christophers with one explorer (Christopher Columbus), one director (Chris Weitz), one news anchor (Chris Matthews), one musician (Chris Isaak), and six actors (Chris Rock, Christopher Walken, Christopher Lee, Chris Tucker, Chris Pine, Christopher Reeve).

I compiled this list by searching for each of the Chris and Christophers on a number of search engines and ranking them by the number of web pages, discussion forums, photos, videos, etc that are available online.
