Regarding the 6JSC/BL/13/LC response at http://www.rda-jsc.org/docs/6JSC-BL-13-LC-response.pdf, please note a typo in the first example on page 8:

Puymaigre, Th. de, (Theodore), comte

There should not be a comma after "de".

I also continue to have concerns that the current text nor the proposed revisions deal with the very common issue of fictitious characters that have same preferred name. I would like to see RDA address this somewhere. Under RDA it is not clear whether 9.6.1.7 or 9.6.1.9 is applicable in such a case.

For example, some PCC libraries are contributing records to the LC/NACO Authority File like this one:

100 0_ Bean $c (Fictitious character from Card)

Does the qualifier "Fictitious character from Card" fall under "another appropriate designation" from 9.6.1.7 or does it fall under 9.6.1.9? 9.6.1.9 is limited to use when non of the five attributes listed there are sufficient or appropriate for distinguishing two or more persons with the same name. None of those five attributes includes the designation for fictitious and legendary persons, and yet that designation is equally appropriate for two fictitious persons with the same name.

It seems to me therefore that for two fictitious persons who would otherwise have the same access point, RDA tells you to record two attributes: 1) Fictitious character, etc. from 9.6.1.7. 2) An other designation to further distinguish the persons, from 9.6.1.9. That other designation could be the surname or name of the creator of the character, or perhaps something else, but would the additions be made like this?:

Bean (Fictitious character) (Card)

Bean (Fictitious character) (Barrows)

(and how would this be coded in MARC, with two $c's or one?)

If 9.6.1.7 is not appropriate in a situation like the one above, then I think RDA needs to say so and indicate that 9.6.1.9 would be applicable instead and an example should be provided to show that.
