hehe I don't think you covered the spelling mistakes losing fans so I'll take a hit at it.
Scott Walker releasing an album as Scott Engel (name by birth), Dino Valenti having his album pressed as Dino Valente (error by album designer), The Young Rascals droppin' their "Young" part of the name. Those are just a few examples of great artists who literally lost a substantial part of their fan base (not all of it though of course) because of their mispelled or differing names.
