DQ: known for writing?

2 was not the Enterprise computer (which to my knowledge has never been given an official name, and which Barrett only voiced) but Una Chin-Riley, and since you didn’t give her name I am taking a DQ.

1 DQ reserved.

Correct (Carmen Electra)
Carmen Miranda
Correct (spelling too)

2DQs reserved

DLR, I don’t believe that you’re entitled to a DQ, given your question and my answer about Majel, but will let you have it anyway, now that we’re in the endgame.
