First / last names

Carol was born in the Maryland but now resides in London. She also runs a political blog at http://sideshow.me.uk/.

This happens to Avedon a lot (I've seen it).

Her first name is Avedon.

Her last name is Carol.

I assume the sentence should read ... Avedon was born in...

unless for some reason the intent was to use her last name here, which would seem rather odd to me.

Looking at it again I think that in "born in the Maryland" there is an unintended "the" in the sentence. Perhaps it should read...

"Avedon was born in Maryland but now resides in London"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.172.115.2 (talk • contribs)

Wikipedia articles refer to people by their last name as standard. Vashti 19:47, 23 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure these links easily fit into the article, but I list them here in order to help establish notability:
