Yes this is Necro-ing the thread.

However, I've been dealing with this *exact* issue on Wikipedia and this thread came up Greekchat came up as one of the hits.

In a powerpoint published by Delta Sigma Theta itself for the creation of both internal and external article publishing, the following was part of a worksheet answer. (http://www.deltasigmatheta.org/membe...C_Workshop.ppt) page 48)

Based on other answers for the worksheet, the first line is what was in the worksheet that the person viewing this should determine is correct or not.

-Olive Claire Jones is one of the founders.

-Founder Jones chose to be known publicly as Olive Jones. So, that’s how her name should be written.
-The only time a person’s middle name, maiden name or initials should be used, is if that person goes by those names or initials.
Ex. Cynthia M. A. Butler-McIntyre or James Earl Jones


Not sure whether that means that the Claire is the *correct* middle name or not, but it certainly indicates that a number of sisters *think* it is.
