...this is what Peter David's running gag is about. He has a character in NF who is Robin Lefter's long-lost mother. And according to the many hints he drops, she is obviously "played by Majel Roddenberry", too.

Everybody who has interacted with another character played by MR will mistake her for that character sooner or later. Riker and Picard obviously take her for Lwaxana Troi, while Scotty recognizes her as Chris Chapel. And Pike speaks of his XO as "Lefter", suggesting a family relationship to Robin.

Apparently, #1 is Robin's mother (she happens to be an immortal, BTW, although she probably is an immortal human much like Mr Flint from "Requiem for Metusaleah"), and in the marriage with Robin's father, the maternal name was chosen as the family name. It's not currently known if she takes time off to masquerade as a Betazoid, too, but she just *might* be Deanna's aunt...

One wonders if Romulans have similar immortals/doppelgangers. At least the Commander played by Carolyn Seymour appears under two different names in the Imperial Romulan Fleet...

Or maybe Gul Dukat was an immie, too. He was originally a human in the 19th century.

*pictures Gul Dukat beheading Lwaxana*

There can be only one.
