I've currently got a contribution in where I've changed a credit for Debbie Harry to Deborah Harry credited as Debbie. I did this because she is known as Deborah for the bulk of her acting work.
But it occurred to me that she is much more commonly known as Debbie Harry in her musical career and this could cause a conflict with anyone who has a lot of Blondie DVDs.
So I thought I'd better ask - which do you think is best to use for the common name - Deborah or Debbie?

We don't do music cd's.  I would only go with movie credits if I had to choose.

I checked my Blondie music dvd and she is credited as Debbie Harry.
I think your common name Deborah credited as Debbie is fine, what is most important is that both names link together

Deborah is her more commonly credited name in film work, that would be a better common name.

If this is what is decided (to go only by movie credits), then the common name for Mya in the common name thread must be updated to Mya Harrison too.

Yeah, but there's also music DVDs out there, so he's got a valid point
