On the next screen, on the Name Correction or Merge line, select "Add correction". Scroll down and click "Continue".
On the next screen, there will be a blank space in which to enter her name. Enter it as: Bzdyk, Chloë
Make sure that the box marked "Preserve previous name on existing credits. i.e. '(as Chloe Bzdyk)'" is checked.
In the explanation box, enter something like "Chloë Bzdyk is my daughter. Her past credits did not include the umlaut on the 'e' in her first name, but her future credits will have that diacritical mark." Click "Check these updates".
On the next screen, you will get a warning that says, "The name 'Bzdyk, Chloë' is not currently in the database. We have these people with similar names ...." Select the option that says, "Correct the name to 'Bzdyk, Chloë' - do not merge it with another name." Click "Re-check these updates".
On the next screen, your data should appear with a green background, and you should be able to click "Submit these updates".
Allow a few days for the correction to go through. Good luck!
If you would like full step-by-step instructions, please post here (1) your daughter's name as currently listed in IMDb and a link to her IMDb page, (2) your daughter's name as it should be spelled with the umlaut, and (3) whether her past credits included the umlaut on her name in the credits or not.
