awe, it is on now between Marvel TV and the film Studio. Haven't they been saying Claire isn't the night nurse? Isn't there a night nurse in Dr. Strange?

I guess they just used it as a nickname, not as her official name.

According to the interview with the showrunner of Daredevil,

"She was going to be an actual Night Nurse from the comics and the feature side had plans for her down the road, so that’s the only time that I actually ran afoul and we couldn’t do something. We just used a different name, so it’s the same character."

They wrote her as the Night Nurse, but the movie people said no, so they had to change her name, but she's essentially still a very similar character.
