Invelos has decided that the credits indeed read La Voy & La Vonn, and accordingly "corrected" the online entries "exactly as credited".

bbbbb degraded, case closed.

Where exactly is that decision? I don't see it. TIA.

Absolutely no space. Draw a straight vertical line from the right edge of the A to the left edge of the V and they would appear to touch. The space is an optical illusion because of the shape of the letters. In case you're wondering why I'm so positive, it's because I have been in printing and typesetting for 45 years.


I'm not doubting this, but it does raise the question...
Why doesn't it work in reverse. Like for Evan, the V and A seem to invading each others space. Think I just answered my own question though, probably due to the A being lower case in these names, and both upper case in the others.

You are correct with your own answer and sometimes people will do what is called kerning...removing optical space between 2 letters such as V and A which will then be overlapped when the vertical straight line is drawn. I do this all the time in desktop publishing. Edit: I should have mentioned that some programs have automatic kerning.
