Any household name from the STEM fields. Most people don’t get into those fields with the intention of becoming famous.
Those that do are often cranks, which, mostly to their annoyance, usually ends in infamy, not fame.
Some those that have had fame thrust upon them adapted pretty well to it. Stephen Hawking was a notable example.
Others really wanted nothing to do with it and have shunned the attention. Grigori Perelman is arguably better known for not wanting to be well known than he is for his mathematical work. (This assertion coming from my remembering his name and his desire to be left alone, but not the theorems he proved.)

Kim Kardashian. She’s blowjob famous.
The rest of the Kardashians and the Jenners are blowjob famous once removed.
That was not accidental but entirely planned and orchestrated by her mom, though. Kris Jenner pimped out her family (not saying they’re victims or anything like that, I doubt they care about wrong and right) and now they’re swimming in money. 🤷

The hawk tuah girl.
The kid who thought he was helping build up the Scots wikipedia. Short version: he wasn’t. More information here.
Not really sure if that’s famous enough since he’s not a household name or anything but honorable mention at least.

Most of the scientists in TV during the pandemic. Don’t know for other countries but in Germany the 2-3 scientists constantly interviewed because there where experts in their fields definitely only where experts in their field and not seeking or wanting attention except for the topic, not for their persona.

Cillian Murphy, apparently he deliberately looked for movies that he thought wouldn’t do well because he didn’t want to be famous. Then peaky blinders happened.
He was in 28 Days Later, the Dark Knight trilogy, and Inception well before Peaky Blinders which were all very successful (perhaps 28 Days Later only in the UK). Granted he wasn’t the lead in the Nolan films but I would contest that he wasn’t famous before Peaky Blinders.
Every child of a famous person.

or any viral video (that was not recorded by the person themselves, since those are often people trying to be famous)
