Name Flubs - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I've seen several name mistakes both on the show and several FOL sites that I've visited. Jo's name is "Joanna", but she was referred to as "Joanne" a couple of times. Also, in the credits sometimes, her last name is spelled POLNIAZAK (If it were spelled that way, it would be pronounced the way it's spelled).

Also, on websites, I've seen Tootie's real name (Dorothy) spelled DORTHY, and at least twice, I've seen Blair spelled BLARE. On this board, I've seen the names Rae, Whelchel, and Cohn spelled RAY, HWELCHEL, and COHEN. Let's try to watch our spelling, okay?

It's not that nice to critisize people's spelling. Sheesh, not everyone can be good spellers. Besides, HWELCHEL is probably a typo. How would you like it if everyone critisized you?

I'm NOT criticizing people's spelling. But I know from experience that it's unpleasant to have your name spelled wrong. I apologize if I offended anyone.

I agree that HWELCHEL and COHEN are probably both typos. From now on, when we're giving friendly advice, let's try and keep it FRIENDLY!
