Move
editThis page should be moved back to Drevlians. That is a better name for it. The current name does not reflect English conventions at all.Johnpacklambert 21:52, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

- Support not that it greatly matters but the usage in Scholar is also at approaching a 2:1 ratio in favour. Even though it was an early tribe (and I could be wrong on this but), the "..yan" ending seems to suggest something from folklore. GregKaye 14:05, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Support: Ngram (here) also suggests Drevlians is the predominant term. Ebonelm (talk) 22:33, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
