Does anyone remember if DA Clemmons, from The People vs. Lois Lane and Dead Lois Walking ever had his first name mentioned? I'm working on something and, while it isn't necessary, I'm not loving constantly referring to him as just Clemmons. And I don't want to make up a name if there is an official one out there.

Thanks in advance!

IMDB has it as D.A. Michael Clemmons portrayed by Granville Van Dusen. The scripts only refer to Clemmons...

Mike

Thanks, Mike! That's very helpful. Oddly enough, I was kind of leaning toward the name Michael if I had to make up a name. I have checked the script and didn't see it, and with this being the house with toddlers who refuse to nap, I didn't have time to check the actual episodes.

Thanks but no problem. I was looking for something to do instead of working... I have no idea where IMDB got this from because like you I checked the script text and his first name is never referenced.

IMDB is a crowd sourced database but instead of being open to anyone, the crowd must pay a fee and the information is at least somewhat verified before posting. Most of the information seems to come from the actors/producers themselves which makes it a different kind of crowd than Wikipedia.

From my personal experience in another fandom - IMDB has been known to use character names given in fanfiction (or other fan sources) to fill in blanks. (Seriously, I gave an unnamed character a name in a novelized scene and later discovered that was now character's name in the IMDB.)

BTW, I'm partal to Grant Clemmons, myself.

Too funny, Dandello! (And totally weird too!)

Hmmm maybe Grant Clemmons would be the better name? Just a suggestion!

Went with Michael. I liked the flow. Not an important detail in any case.

I know this is late. Just watched the episodes. A TV newscast has the scroll at the bottom of the screen giving his first name as Michael.

Sweet, thanks! I did go with that, so I feel awesome about this news.

Ack! Luckily I only have one WIP where Clemmons shows up.
