His real name is Robinhood Ferdinand.<br/> <br/>It was his mother and the priest who baptized him who gave him his name.</p><p>&quot;Ang ginagamit ng tatay ko ay Robinhood na pomada, &#x27;yun ang laging inilalagay niya sa buhok niya, &#x27;yun ang pinaglilihian ni ermat, &#x27;yung pomada na yon. Noong lumabas ako, Robinhood ang ipinangalan sa akin. Noong dinala ako sa simbahan para binyagan ayaw payagan ng pari. Kasi si Robinhood kalaban &#x27;yan, magnanakaw &#x27;yan, kailangan nating palitan. Ayaw pumayag ng nanay ko. Nagkaroon sila ng pag-uusap ng pari, ginawang Robinhood Ferdinand. Si Ferdinand ay isang dating hari ng Spain na ginawang santo,&quot; Padilla explained.</p><p>2. He&#x27;s an Igorot.</p><p>While he was raised in Manila, Padilla also lived for a time in Baguio, where he was discovered.</p><p>&quot;Talagang taga-Baguio naman kami. Ang nanay ko ay lahing Igorota. Pero sandali lang ako sa Baguio, tatlong taon lang. Pinalayas na ako doon kasi nagkalat na ako ng lagim,&quot; Padilla said.</p><p>3. He loves to dance.</p><p>Far from his bad boy image, Padilla loves to dance, particularly street dancing.</p><p>&quot;Noong araw kasi bago magsapakan, sayawan muna. Ang tawag doon showdown. Kapag summer kasi -- lumang kuwento na ito, kuwentong bata lang -- yabang na yabang kami sa batang Maynila kapag dumarating sa Baguio kasi ang lalakas ng stereo nila, inaagawan kami ng girlfriend namin. So showdown &#x27;yon sa sayaw, street dancing,&quot; Padilla said.</p><p>4. He&#x27;s afraid of ghosts.</p><p>As an action star, Padilla is known for being tough. But did you know the Padilla is afraid of ghosts?</p><p>&quot;Kasi &#x27;yung nakikita mo, pwede mong awayin, pwede kang lumaban sa nakikita mo. Pero yung multo hindi pa naiimbento ang powers natin doon. At saka totoo sila, totoo sila, nararamdaman ko,&quot; Padilla shared.</p><p>5. He wanted to be an astronaut.</p><p>Padilla admitted that it was not his dream to become an actor.</p><p>&quot;Gusto kong maging astronaut eh, &#x27;yun ang aking pangarap. Eh artista, nasa dugo naman, sabi ko sige pwede yan,&quot; Padilla said.</p><p>6. He used to play kontrabida roles.</p><p>&quot;Yung uso noon hindi para sa akin, kasi pretty boy. Iba ang panahon noon. Pero &#x27;di ako nasiraan ng loob kasi ang sinabi sa akin ni direk Deo (Fajardo Jr.) dito tayo sa action, mag-kontrabida ka, kaya nalinyahan ko sa action, puro kontrabida,&quot; Padilla recalled.</p><p>7. He once took in a homeless person.</p><p>According to his mother, Eva Carino, Padilla was already kind and generous even at a very young age.</p><p>&quot;Pag-uwi sa bahay, wala na siyang polo, sabi ko, &#x27;Nasaan ang damit mo?&#x27; Sabi niya, &#x27;Ibinigay ko sa bata walang damit eh.&#x27; Minsan naman pag-uwi niya may nakabalot sa uniform niya, pero siya putikan. Pusa na hindi pa makadilat, inuwi niya. Sabi ko, &#x27;Bakit mo inuwi?&#x27; &#x27;Nasa kanal kawawa naman.&#x27; Tapos isang araw, taong-grasa na ang inuwi. &#x27;Yung trailer ng Papa nila... bakit kako ito may takip? Sabi niya, &#x27;Wala, wala, Ma.&#x27; Yun pala may inaalagaan siyang tao. Sabi ko, &#x27;Saan mo nakuha ito? &#x27;Mama kawawa naman naglalakad lang.&#x27; Pinagtiyagaan niya unti-unti,&quot; Cariño shared.</p>
