We the undersigned are friends, family members, colleagues and supporters of the incomparable TAZ HALLOWEEN DARLING!! Each of us hereby certifies to FACEBOOK and its management and staff that we have always known TAZ HALLOWEEN DARLING to go by that name. This is her REAL, ACTUAL, FACTUAL name. It is not merely a "stage name", but rather it is the nick name and true name that she is called on a daily basis by all those who know her!

Thus, we hereby formally petition FACEBOOK to back off and stop threatening to remove her legitimate name from her Facebook page!! Let TAZ HALLOWEEN DARLING use her own name!

You may contact any of us at our email addresses below for a formal affidavit certifying and swearing that we all know "TAZ" as "TAZ"!

Facebook needs to stop discriminating in this way. There must be better ways to verify identity and name use than what they are doing. I know people using real sounding, but names not their own, who will never be forced to change their online names. Get real, Facebook.

I have known Taz Halloween Darling for over twenty years. It is her name. Perhaps, you could show her the same respect that we do.

I can't imagine calling Taz anything else. It has been her name for over thirty years, and she should have the right to keep it as such on Facebook. It is not an "alias" at all.

Please. Taz Halloween is an amazing singer and has been using that name for years. How about all of the Hollywood celebrities with stage names?

Known her since the 80s and she's played shows with me and it's what we all call her and is billed on posters. I don't understand this harassment.

I don't know Taz personally but have a good friend in Chapel Hill who plays in her band. He's referred to her as 'Taz' every time he's spoken about the band. In addition, I know she exists since I saw her play at a George Harrison 40 year commemorative for the 'All Things Must Pass' album. Everyone there called her Taz. I'm not sure what else the name police need to relent on this, but it seems crazy that anyone would want to deny her the right to use her own name.

Taz is the only name I have ever known for her. She is well known by many as Taz. It's what we all call her.
