One example is Heather Silk. The first porn name she used is Silky Thumper, so that's how she's listed at iafd, but she hasn't used that name in many years, and most customers wouldn't recognize it on a cover.

The same thing happens at FreeOne's. IAFD will use one name, while FreeOne's will use another name, for the same performer.
Often, I've found that IAFD will re-direct a search of one name, which is often an alias, to the name they list.
Performers change their stage names for a variety of reasons.
Search sites like IAFD and FreeOne's should stick with the first name used and list any additional names as "also known as" aliases.

We generaly do that -- use the first credited name as the main name -- until such time than an AKA far outshines the initial name.
For instance, Jenna Jameson started out as a performer named "Daisy." We couldn't list Jenna Jameson's main name as Daisy, could we? It'd look weird.
None of this is a hard and fast rule, I'm sure you could find some perfs who are now better known than their initial name who are still listed by their initial name; and others who have been changed. With over 125,000 perfs in the DB, we tend to be reactive, not pro-active in these kinds of things.
