With such a low percentage for EB, consider changing it to Emily Bronte.

The clue for EJ should say "whose," not "who's," and the clue for EA should say "voiced." You misspelled Reuben and Barbra Streisand in the clue for EG.

@RockBand: Two reasons: 1) It's almost too easy, which is the same reason I didn't use Elvis Costello and 2) I like e.e. cummings and he rarely gets to get a plug :P

I wish Sporcle would be a little more forgiving of the spelling for EY. The last name is hard enough to remember and the first name has several alternate spellings. I spent most of my time trying variations of both names. It's one of the least guessed and I think that's part of the reasons.

@debbiedoesnothin: Names are only spelled on way though. Shaquille O'Neil wouldn't be acceptable for Shaquille O'Neal.

2/5. would be higher if not for the overabundance of impossible to spell names.

About the spelling issue -- unless it is specifically a test of spelling, misspellings of peoples' names that are "close enough" should be accepted where practical. Essentially, if you know the answer well enough you can SAY it and can come close to spelling it you should be rewarded. If I run across a name I know how to say and the quiz is picky about spelling I just Google it without feeling the least bit guilty about "cheating". That might be the best way around the issue for those who are not spelling purists. It just costs you a little time.

How can you not take "Emil" for EZ? Don't know where I pulled that part out of, but I think that's close enough!

Well, I missed the three that apparently everyone else missed, so I don't feel too bad. I think Emil should have been acceptable as a first name for Zapata, though, I'm fairly certain that's the only way I've ever heard him referred to.
