With that being the case it looks like we now know the true common name! Best Nicole de Boer could get is 12. And Nicole deBoer has 13 titles. 

Thanks to those that helped! I really appreciate it!

National Lampoon's Senior Trip: Nicole deBoer as Meg Smith
My one wish for the DVD Profiler online database: Ban or remove the disc-level profiles of TV season sets. It completely screws up/inflates the CLT.
FACT: Imdb is WRONG 70% of the time! Misspelled cast, incomplete cast, wrong cast/crew roles. So for those who want DVD Profiler to be "as perfect as Imdb", good luck with that.
Stop adding UNIT crew! They're invalid credits. Stop it!

Thanks huskersports

@ Zwollenaar
As Ken himself said... don't matter what the real name is... we go strictly by the credits... using the most commonly credited form.

Quoting Ken Cole (about half way down the page):
Quote:
The lookup tool is not to be blindly trusted, however it does outweigh other sources, including autographs.  The common name is not intended to always reflect the "real name", but the most commonly credited name.

However, if a user documents errors in the database where the credit is not entered properly, that can and should be considered.  Better yet, correct the entries, assuming you own the discs in question, thereby correcting the lookup results.


See what I put in bold. If the real name was what mattered none of these common name threads would be needed.

Quoting SpaceFreakMicha:

PSI Factor: Chronicles of the Paranormal: The First Season (1x02): NICOLE de BOER



The Outer Limits: Season One (1x14): NIKKI DE BOER

Just be looking at the size of the font on The Outer Limits credit, it should be Nikki deBoer. All the capital letters are larger then the lower case letters and the "D" from her last name matches the lower case font size. From my understanding it's a French name, since I too have the lower case "de" followed by a capital letter and it's French.
We're on a mission from God.

I disagree there is a most definite visible space in between the letters. So per the credits I would not consider it deBoer... and even if it is to be looked at as de Boer... we don't show for capitalization per Ken.

And as I already posted... what the "real" name is does not matter per Ken.

A when you find that CLT gives a wrong result ? I would give a  to a system that prefers wrong names to real ones...

If I were you, I would have written : "With that being the case it looks like we now found the "per the rules" common name. Unfortunately, best Nicole de Boer could get is 12. And Nicole deBoer has unfortunately 13 titles.

The origins of the name may be Dutch but she's actually Canadian so she may well write her name as "deBoer", I've seen no evidence to prove it either way.

Yves... as it turns out in this particular thread... it is (at least now) proving that the CLT is correct per the actual credits.

Nicole deBoer = 116/187
Nicole de Boer = 72/135


As for the system that prefers wrong names... it is what it is. And I am more then happy to work with whatever way Ken decides on. As of now he decided on most commonly credited. So in my option... so be it.

And yes... as northbloke said... I have read on multiple sites that Nicole deBoer is from Canada.

After a Google search on de Boer, deBoer, especially on Canadian results, and looking on main movies sites, I personally have no doubt. But I agree that this has no place here ...
