Here's a link to the card in question. The front of the card says "Jack McLeod" and the back says "Robert McLeod." There's a UER designation that says "UER: Called Robert on back."

His real first name is Robert with Jack being his nickname. I've seen this on other cards where both names could be considered correct but one name is flagged as being a UER. I always scratch my head on these. Is there a rule that says the name on the front and back need to match?

Not really a big deal as I'm just trying to satisfy my curiosity about this.

For what it's worth, I agree with you. I suspect the UER was entered by an over-enthusiastic submitter. But maybe I'm missing something. 

You're right; this happens all the time. I suspect I could find numerous examples of Rollie/Roland Fingers cards, for example.

Interestingly, Beckett also lists the card as a "UER" for the same reason.

PSA just lists the card as "Robert McLeod" without any reference to "Jack."

Should be fixed now

Note2 was removed, but Note of "UER" remained. It's now gone as well.

There are plenty of examples of cards using different names on front and back for most of the set (like 80s and 90s Donruss), and on any modern sets where the set is consistent with names on front and back but one or two cards are an exception, there's usually a reference to it in Note2 but no UER given. We usually only put UER when it's a misspelling or a name the person has never used (like "Dave Robinson" from the Spurs).
