Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

Trivia: As in other Star Trek series, little inside jokes that are not often shown on camera appear on the set. For example, the Jupiter Mining Corporation from the BBC comedy series "Red Dwarf" has an office on the Promenade.

Trivia: It's mentioned across the series that Captain Sisko and his son Jake are both baseball fans. Cirroc Lofton, who plays Jake, is actually the nephew of former baseball player Kenny Lofton.

Question: I've noticed in some episodes the person playing Dr. Bashir is credited as Siddig El Fadil and in others he's Alexander Siddig. At what point in the series did he have the name change?

Answer: He changed his name after the third season because people were having difficulty pronouncing his last name."Alexander Siddig" is the name he typically goes by as his full birth name, "Siddig El Tahir El Fadil El Siddig Abderahman Mohammed Ahmed Abdel Karim El Mahdi", is far too verbose and complex for screen credits.
