Article title
editIf her "best known as" stage name is a mononym, shouldn't this article be at Jackée (which currently redirects here)? --McGeddon (talk) 10:01, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

Jackée Harry → Jackée – Per the comment above, if that is really the name she's best known by, it should be moved per WP:COMMONNAME. nyuszika7h (talk) 11:12, 29 June 2016 (UTC) --Relisting. Eventhorizon51 (talk) 14:48, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
- Support - per WP:COMMONNAME. Cheers, Comatmebro User talk:Comatmebro 11:25, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose - in the past her common name probably was just Jackée but I don't think it is anymore. Her social media accounts are all under "Jackée Harry", and while IMDb shows that she recieves credits as Jackée occasionally these days, it's far rarer than her full name. A search for Jackée on Google News brings up articles that all use Harry. Nohomersryan (talk) 14:32, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose. Nohomsryan has it right. This is essentially the same kind of case as Beyoncé Knowles, John Cougar Mellencamp, and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson (formerly best known as Beyondcé, John Cougar, and The Rock), and unlike cases like Madonna and Cher which remain consistently mononymic in virtually all current sources. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 22:11, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose per Nohomsryan - She goes by Jackée_Harry so makes sense to have the article the same . –Davey2010Talk 19:42, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
- Comment – A tough one. Either title is probably fine. (She's definitely been credited both ways over the years...) However, I think Jackée Harry is slightly preferable on WP:NATURALDIS grounds. But as long as one redirects to the other, then either is probably fine... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 13:37, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
