Ok, I made this look like one of my school tests, so you can pick which points you agree with and which ones you don't.

Glad to do it!
I disagree completely with A. I think just the fans looks for the members names and realize Fleetwood is Fleetwood. The general public don't care. For example, do you think I could identify Eddy Van Halen? No way! I even thought the singer (David Lee Roth) was a Van Halen. Same with Wilson Phillips.. who is who? Not with Bon Jovi, cause Bon Jovi was the lead singer so I always knew who he was.
Santana came to Peru in the 70s and there was an incident at the airport, I was a kid, so I knew who he was and never forgot his face. Otherwise all members of Santana were equal... bearded and long hair.
Mick is famous because of B. No doubt. And a bit of C.
D?? Partially. I mean he would obviously be remembered as the tall guy of Fleetwood Mac, but maybe lot of people (again, not fans) never knew his last name is Fleetwood. For example, I recognize the long haired blond saxophonist of Supertramp, but can't remember his name. And I never knew the name of the guitarist dressed as a school kid in AC/DC. So I think those guys are partially famous.
On the other side, Stevie Nicks is Stevie Nicks (from Fleetwood Mac), and everybody knows. Like Phil Collins is from Genesis or Annie Lennox is from Eurhythmics (and I'm not a big fan of those bands).
Not to mention Paul McCartney and Mick Jagger, cause, well, they are mega famous, like their bands.
