Proper full name opening

edit

The full name to conform to Wikipedia MOS should be given as John Peter Wakefield. We only put nicknames in quotes when they are unexpected, for example if his nickname was Dave. Now a related question is, should the article be named John Peter Wakefield, John Wakefield, John P. Wakefield or Johnny Wakefield. I did this google search [1] and my initial impression is that the article should probably be named Johnny Wakefiled, because this seems to be the common way he is referred to in sources. However I did not do an indepth search of all the sources, so I may be rushing based on the top ones. I also did not try to do other searches that might come up with other results.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:34, 21 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
