The actors are 3 Johns and 1 John, though only one of the Johns has a 
significant filmography.  Honestly though, I hadn't heard of the 
actor(s) until you raised the point.  Who gets listed is probably a 
matter of common sense.  Some time ago we had a big debate over famous 
Canadians; with DW involved it was no fun.
