There is some confusion around which comics character Claire is based on. Show creators were unable to use the most well known version of Night Nurse for the Netflix TV series due to the upcoming Dr. Strange movie. So they used the lesser known Dr. Claire Temple, placing her in the Night Nurse role. When Colleen Wing began training Claire in marital arts, some fans theorized that she may become The White Tiger vigilante. Claire Temple is been set up to become the White Tiger discussion on Reddit, April 2017, Accessed on 11/2/2018. I am 90% sure they are up setting Claire Temple to become a known Marvel superhero in the near future post on Tumblr, Accessed on 11/2/2018
 
Claire is most commonly paired with her canonical love interests, Matt Murdock and Luke Cage. The femslash pairing of Karen Page/Claire Temple is also somewhat popular. Hurt Comfort is the most common trope in Claire centric works. Claire often provides emotional support or medical treatment to injured superheroes, similar to the narrative role she has in canon.
