While wikipedia might be a fun place to learn about common knowledge, it remains filled with errors -- which often, but not always, get corrected.

This entry seems to have been pulled directly from the bio site I used.

Aaaah, but, my good friend, if you look closely you shall see it actually says: Gabor, Zsa-Zsa

Incredible!!! - I am lost for words Skip.

Whoever is contributing this, just put it through and let the votes decide.
I'm sure Ken and Geri will decide accordingly.

That brings up another thought:  Did she ever get her name legally changed to Zsa Zsa via the courts?  I wonder because most police departments are sticklers about using someone's real name as opposed to a nickname or stage name.

You don't have to go through the courts to change your name.  She could have, and probably did, go the 'common usage' route.

That being said, we have countless reports that tell us that 'Zsa Zsa' is a Hungarian nickname.  Being a 'nickname', it doesn't get split into a 'first' and 'middle' name field.  The entire thing goes in the first name field.  This argument is beyond ridiculous.

"Gabor, Zsa Zsa" at the bottom of the clapboard in her mugshot.

     

And that proves? James, if you had a mugshot taken the clapboard might say Profitt, James Lawrence. Nice try, though.

Skip

It might say Profitt since my last name is often misspelled that way. It wouldn't say Lawrence though. 

The clapboard wasn't meant to prove anything. I just thought it was a funny picture.

OOOOOO good eyes, skywatcher. Much better than my old ones....want to trade.
     

Zsa Zsa/Gabor it is.

Skip

With all of the info produced so far, you find the label that an LAPD officer put on a clapboard as definitive?  How does one police officer's interpretation of her name finally convince you more than a vote of your peers of (currently) 36-4?

Perhaps ridiculous to you, but not to me. See how easy it is when someone found something. Unlike some I don't invent facts I can't confirm. Once confirmation is obtained, I am a pussycat. Just because Zsa Zsa is a common Hungarian nickname, Unicus, does not mean that she considered it or treated it as a nickname, the two have no relevance to each other.

Skip

Zsa Zsa is not just a common Hungarian nickname.  It is a common Hungarian nickname FOR 'Sári'.  All the articles, that mention this, say she was named after the Hungarian actress Sári Fedák, who was also called Zsa Zsa.  Further proof that 'Zsa Zsa' was a nickname she got in Hungary.

Those are facts.  I didn't invent them and they were quite easy to confirm.  The fact that you can't see that says more about you than it does about the rest of us who saw that quite clearly. 

Btw, I didn't say it was ridiculous, I said it was "beyond ridiculous."

it might be...:gasp:...a typo. 

Or a write-o. 

Helena Bonham-Carter and Mark Boone, Junior in film credits were not enough proof to settle those disputes. (Those might have been temporary name changes after all.) But for Zsa Zsa, dahling, just your mugshot is enough proof.

Zsa Zsa/Gabor it is.

Skip

To anyone with half a brain cell and an iota of common sense it was Zsa Zsa//Gabor long long before this bit of evidence.

You never ever cease to amaze me in the stupidy you are prepared to argue Skip.
