Billy North → Bill North – Per WP:COMMONNAME. The page itself and all of the references refer to North as Bill, not Billy. Bill appears to be the name that is predominantly used. The only source that I could find that uses Billy is this one, and the first sentence even says that North himself prefers Bill. Oneforfortytwo (talk) 17:26, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
- Support. Not only does Bill North seem to be the WP:COMMONNAME, the page Bill North is already a redirect to this article. ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 20:36, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
- Support but be careful with the edit histories. This is reversing a cut-and-paste move of 31 July 2006 by Nishkid64. [1] [2] I see they have been active last March, but not very active, so they may not respond to that ping. Andrewa (talk) 18:05, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
