Sersinho EduardsSersinho Eduard – Even though Eduards seems the correct spelling, and both variants be found. Eduard is more common and it appears on official publications: National team. KittenKlub (talk) 13:09, 6 May 2021 (UTC) Relisting. BD2412 T 04:24, 23 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

GiantSnowman I'm nominating him to get his name right. Nardisoero changed the name, and many sources including official sources seem to agree with "Eduard". The problem it is probably a common mistake, because surnames based on given names usually end in "s", but there was no strict naming rule in the 19th century.KittenKlub (talk) 11:18, 7 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
But you said that 'Eduards' is the correct spelling? GiantSnowman 11:23, 7 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
"Eduards" would be the normal way to spell it both in Dutch and English, but there can be an exception. The problem is that it could be a common mistake.Dagblad Suriname, one of the main newspapers: Eduard & Eduards. The number of results and the reliability seems to be in favour of Eduard, however Eduards is used a lot as well. KittenKlub (talk) 11:26, 7 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
You've contradicted yourself here. GiantSnowman 11:30, 7 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
Overview:
Eduard: National team (see above), Star Nieuws, Surinaamse Voetbal Bond, National Football Teams
Eduards: msn Voetbal.com World Football.net
both: Dagblad Suriname (see above)
De Ware Tijd & Waterkant (no search results), however there are in memoriams for both Eduard and Eduards.
Then again I don't think I'm being taken seriously here, so I end it here. KittenKlub (talk) 12:21, 7 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
