How to remove names from the Autofill history when adding faces?
After my previous thread, I checked my address book. Because they were added only in iPhoto, they are not in my address book. Any help would be appreciated!

How can I permanently remove these names form the menu memory?

You ought to make sure that all instances of their Face entres have been removed. If you do the name drops out of the suggestion list.

I have a similar problem. I've got my daughter tagged in thousands of pictures and they're all together in one "person" on my corkboard. But when I start to tag her and write her name in, the auto-fill brings up a long, long list of her name - the name is spelled exactly the same, but each listing has a different photo next to it. How do I "merge" these or get rid of them? All of her photos are together in the same grouping - why is her name so divided up in the auto-fill? It takes forever to tag her; even if I choose the first one, it's slow.

I know you are not surprised but JPOTTERMAC'S suggestion WORKED and it was extremely easy. Add the name that you no longer want in iPhoto to a picture then merge the picture with another face. Example: I changed the name on one of my pictures from Nancy to JESSICA (name I wanted out of my face choices). I then merged the Jessica file into the Nancy file (you just drag the Jessica file on top of the Nancy file). Jessica no longer pops up as a choice. THANKS THANKS THANKS
Thank you! That worked for me.
