His ancestry

Most online web sites seem to say that his father is of Italian background, and mother Czech. But this book [1] - searchable online - says it's the other way around. "Boreanaz" does seem to likely be a Czech name over an Italian one. Does anyone have any first-hand info that directly contrasts the book's? JackO'Lantern 23:16, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

At the message board on his IMDb page, one poster claims:

The name Boreanaz is Italian. I believe on his mother's side he's Czech. His dad changed his last name to Roberts for his career in entertainment, but David chose to keep the family name of Boreanaz. Gilliamjf 13:56, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

Well, that's what I saw on a few web sites - but I never saw something like a direct quote. The book seems pretty reliable when it states that it's his mother who is Italian. Are you sure "Boreanaz" isn't a Czech name? They often end with "naz" or "raz". JackO'Lantern 20:48, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

IMDb info is posted by users. It's possible that poster was mistaken. I'd trust a published biography over IMDb. CPitt76 19:54, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

BOREANAZ IS A SLOVENIAN NAME. IT'S BOREANAC. HIS FATHER ANCESTORS ARE ETHNIC SLOVENES FROM ITALY. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cold water (talk • contribs) 22:57, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Birth date

By the way, the book I linked to about his ancestry also says his birth date is 1971. A few other sites say this too, although some say 1969. I guess I'll trust the book and change it to 1971 for now. JackO'Lantern 23:27, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

The imdb has 1969. siafu 02:45, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Mr. Boreanaz blog which he signed up for (or his people did) states his age as 38.That would make his date of birth 1969, NOT 1971. Therefore do NOT change his date of birth without verifiable and concrete proof. http://fans.nhl.com/david_boreanaz/home/—Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.249.142.42 (talk) 03:39, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Filmography

Boreanaz also started in "The Crow 4 : Wicked Prayer". He played Luc Crash or Death. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Crow:_Wicked_Prayer. Why isn't this listed? Cherina74@yahoo.com

• As far as I know, it's not listed because you decided to come here instead of putting it in. If you know you're right, just change the darn page :) I certainly can't be bothered(195.92.168.167 23:06, 7 July 2006 (UTC))

His name

Boreanaz was just on a Philadelphia sports show and said his name was David Paul Boreanaz, not David Patrick. The host said they'd gone to Wikipedia. Boreanaz repeated, "It's Paul."

That's really odd. A google search seems to turn up roughly equal results for David Patrick Boreanaz as David Paul Boreanaz. If he genuinely went on TV and corrected i though then I guess that's right.Jayunderscorezero 14:22, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

They guy verbally verified on public radio that his middle name is Paul, nothing "odd" about that. Search engines are not the bible and only search out infomation whether that information is correct or incorrect. :-) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.249.142.42 (talk) 16:27, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

to be honest, don't believe everything you read here on wikipedia either!! in the above statement, the host said they came on here, and got the wrong info - saturday 3rd nov 07's episode of Parkinson, french and saunders were guests, and jennifer saunders said - have you ever been on wikipedia? i looked myself up, and half the stuff is wrong. she said a couple more things, but just proves this may be a great encyclopedic site that can be wrong!!

As long as there are valid sources to back up statements and other things that need backing, then that should take care of any wrong...or at least most of it. Wikipedia is often an excellent source of information, but more so when that information is sourced (with good sources, of course). Flyer22 23:06, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Big Bad appearing in the opening credits

"and being the only Big Bad to appear in the opening credits." Acually this is not true. Alyson Hannigan (Willow) was the Big Bad of Season 6, and did also appear in the opening credits.

I'm not sure if this part of the article should be changed or just removed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Andrudis (talk • contribs) 20:28, 8 February 2007 (UTC).

Some Answers to Your Questions

David's dad is Czech, his mother is Italian, his middle name IS Patrick, and he WAS born in 1971. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Inuyashax38 (talk • contribs)

Do we have sources for all those things? --Masamage ♫ 22:43, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Nope they don't...their just spouting BS...it's Paul. 1969. get over it! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.249.142.42 (talk) 02:33, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Citation

I don't know how to change or add citations. I noticed the Ithaca College reference needs a citation. Here: http://www.fox.com/bones/bios/david.htm . (I also found him in an article at the Ithaca website: http://www.ithaca.edu/icq/2005v4/features/boreanaz.htm ) Also, I noticed that the website for ref 1 also lists his dob as 1971 and middle name as Patrick, as well as (several fan sites). I am not advocating a change, but maybe this reference should be changed as it has the "incorrect" information in it. Just a thought. I dunno. What do you think?

Middle name and Birthday

His Name and Birthday: According to his NHL Blog,which he blog's himself,David was 40 this year on 16th may, so that would make his Birthdate 16/05/1969, as for his name , do's anybody have the actual sorce or artical where he says his middle name is Paul?, cause most sites i've checked seem not to be sure on the matter.Even his imbd page is edited by a fan so that itself isn't a reliable source.

These are the sources where they have his name as Patrick!

Paul or Patrick

If his real name is David Paul Boreanaz, then how come everything and everyone else who knows his middle name says Patrick. How do you mix someone's middle name up? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dowsiewuwu (talk • contribs) 17:32, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Don't know, but the sources [2] and [3] have different names.—C45207 | Talk 08:54, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Removal of Middle Name

Since we can't seem to find a high-quality reliable source to confirm his middle name and because we have so many conflicting sources, I've removed the middle name from the article. Does any one have a high-quality source for his middle name? —C45207 | Talk 04:49, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Potential libel

I've just removed a sentence about David having an affair and a love child. If anyone has a source for this, feel free to revert. Rojomoke (talk) 23:32, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Documented today on People.com that he has admitted to having an affair. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 32.176.254.97 (talk) 00:18, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

No idea on the 'love child' rumors but he did admit to being unfaithful to his wife and I think it can be added into his biography. kystilla (talk) 10:22, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

Daughter's name

The citation for his daughter's name is Bardot Vita[4] - no Bella. If there is a legitimate citation for her name/nickname equal to or beyond an E-mag, please use it. 71.234.215.133 (talk) 07:54, 11 August 2010 (UTC)

Ref for religion

• The link referencing that Boreanaz is Catholic is dead. I couldn't find the article in usaweekend.com, but i found these links instead [5] [6] [7]. I didn't place the reference directly because I'm not sure whether any of them complies as a source for verifiability (personally i think the first one should do, since it is an interview) - frankieMR (talk) 15:50, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Uchitel

1. Uchitel's interview dose not belong on this page. Her statement about Boreanaz from said interview is cited.
2. Uchitel's "most famous mistress on the planet" does not belong on Boreanaz's page. It is a statement about her/self. Ref to her affair with Boreanaz is sufficient.
3. Boreanaz's statement that his marriage has been strengthened seems silly, if not outright gossipy. The state of his marriage should be concerned with "is/is not" unless it drives his life and/or career in outré directions.
