The website Almanacco di Gherardo Casaglia attributes to her instead the names of Alexandrine-Adelaïde Gavaudan-Ducamel and Alexandrine-Adelaïde Gavaudan-Joinville, but both obviously derive from an erroneous mix between the singer herself and two contemporary colleagues: her sister-in-law Alexandrine-Marie-Agathe Gavaudan-Ducamel, soprano of the Opéra-Comique, and Suzanne Joinville (1758–1804), soprano of the Paris Opéra who had debuted alongside Adélaïde's elder sister Шаблон:Ill.
