Best Answer

There are two reasons afloat. One being that the name was changed due to legal reasons, meaning Tyria Moore did not grant the producers her likeness or her name because she did not want to be associated with the film. The other being that it might have been more "pallettable". Tyria Moore in real life was a big boned, shortly cropped red haired woman whom Wournos met in jail. Selby walls character was seen as more innocent, more feminine which would have been more of a contrast to wournos' tough exterior.
