Surname

Should it be Beale or Clarke?

She was last credited as Beale yet she has stated on the show, including her last appearance, that her surname is Clarke.

Should wiki list it as Beale or Clarke? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.20.177.169 (talk) 16:44, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Beale because that is what she was credited as - it is her common name.Rain the 1 16:55, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I would say keep the article title as Beale as that is her commonly known name, but if she stated that on the show (and we have a source) then I dont see it as a problem. However... despite what she said on the show, if the BBC continued to list her as Beale in the credits then we have to go by that. Bleaney (talk) 16:56, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, the article should stay the same but her name in the actual article should change. And in most divorces, people revert to their maiden name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.20.177.169 (talk) 17:02, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

in most divorces, people revert to their maiden name isnt good enough for Wikipedia, we need sources! And if the BBC continued to credit her as Beale we have to go by that despite what the character said on the show... after all, what if the character was lying?

You said you had a source in which Jane's maiden name is mentioned? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.20.177.169 (talk) 20:04, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In most divorces, people keep the same name. They would have to change it by deed poll. As would Jane. She called herself Clarke when flirting, which was probably to make herself feel more able to. But she hadn't actually changed her name. She was credited as Beale and that was her name. Stacey did that as well, calling herself Slater while flirting after her divorce, when her name was still Branning. –anemoneprojectors– 13:12, 11 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, she referred to herself as Clarke outside of flirting as well. And here is the source (http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00h00d1) 81.20.188.79 (talk) 07:07, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That still says Jane Beale. Anyway, the name she used was not necessarily what her name actually was. She stays as "Lesley Jane Beale (née Clarke; previously Collins)". –anemoneprojectors– 13:31, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If you watch the clip, she refers to herself as Jane Clarke. therefore, her surname is Clarke. 81.20.179.232 (talk) 08:51, 15 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

So should it be Clarke, according to the clip it is. 81.20.179.232 (talk) 18:01, 15 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
