Honestly, changing your name on the resume to be the same as the CEO’s last name might actually work.
When it’s time to actually do the HR paperwork, tell them the CEO’s name is the name you go by, but your real name is your legal name. Act extremely offended if they question this.
And when the CEO walks into the room to verify, look them dead in the eye with a “Hi, absent dad” look.
Hit them right in the tiny latent guilt-ridden side of their brain. When they ask you who your mother was, tilt your head up slightly and smile wanly whilst narrowing your eyes at them. Maintain until the second on-the-spot promotion.
Tilt your head to the side and nod knowingly at them. It will both bolster and flatter their egomanic tendencies that they either will have figured out timetravel or that they think that you think that they are capable of it.

Bonus points if the ceo is the same age, or younger than you.
