Still up in the air: Dupont, DuPont, du Pont? Clayton Moore’s real name is Jack Carlton Moore according to NYTimes and CNN.com, but L.A. Times says Jack Carlson Moore. According to Lee Krasner’s bio, her birth name is Lena, "she preferred to be called Lenore, later Lee." Billboard Top 40 says Donna Summer’s real name is Adrian Donna Gaines.
