| | Posted: | | | | Mmm, currently there's one profile for him in the database, as Kevin Hendricks, Jr. in EZ Money. If you consider that the common name, you could enter "Kevin Hendricks, Jr. [Kevin Hendricks, Jr aka Li'l Kev]". That seems easier than to do it the other way around, which is to enter him "as credited" here and add this common name to that 'EZ Money' credit instead. |

EDIT: T!M was faster than me and gave the matching explanation. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

EZ Money is the film the screencap is from. Ah, so this is his only credit in the entire database. Then you can really only enter him "as credited". How you're going to spread all that over the three name fields is up to you, though.  |

| | Posted: | | | | I would list it this way:
Kevin / aka Li'l Kev / Hendricks, Jr. [Kevin Hendricks, Jr. aka Li'l Kev]
Based on the rule about listing nicknames in the middle name field. | | | If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.

Based on the rule about listing nicknames in the middle name field. I did look at the nicknames rule, but it says: "If an actor's credited name includes a nickname, highlighted by ", ’ or ( ), list it in the middle name field." Although one could "extrapolate" the rule to include this, there's generally also always someone here who wants to interpret the rules exactly as it is written. In this case, since there's no nickname "highlighted by ", ’ or ( )" here, that would mean the rule doesn't apply. As always, it depends on how you look at the rules... |

Based on the rule about listing nicknames in the middle name field. Wouldn't it in this case be Kevin / Li'l Kev / Hendricks, Jr. [Kevin Hendricks, Jr aka Li'l Kev], since "aka" is only the acronym for "Also Known As"? EDIT: On the other hand "Li'l Kev" seems to be a stage name, so it's not exactly what I'd call a nickname. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!

I agree with this method as it captures all the on screen data. While it may be technically outside the rule, I think this can be extrapolated ok. That said grrrrrrr grumble grumble someones I hate friacking Hollywood. Grumble. Grumble | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!!
