Filip Đuričić → Filip Djuricic – His name is written as "Filip Djuricic", and sometimes as "Filip Djuričić", in the English-speaking world. The evidence is the references and external links in his article. Even his shirt name displays "F. Djuricic". SLBedit (talk) 18:27, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

• Comment Is it simply a case that his shirt name is Djuricic and not Đuričić due to the difficulty of rendering it in the correct script? Also the Serbian article uses Đuričić. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 19:05, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

Maybe. Considering Lazar Marković and Nemanja Matić, "Djuričić" is probably the best choice. Well, that's because it's a Serbian website. SLBedit (talk) 19:17, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

The Guardian 2014 "And finally, Newcastle United will spend £7m on Benfica midfielder Filip Đuričić, much to the chagrin of the staff member tasked to operate the big steamy shirt contraption in the club shop, not least because Newcastle might make a big-money bid for the head of diacritics at Arsenal, who is well schooled now after last year's Mesut Özil affair.

User:SLBedit this player hasn't taken Belgian nationality has he? Maybe you're not familiar with en.wp naming practices - yes it occasionally happens that a few Serbians, or their employers, spell their names outside Serbia with the old pre-WWI Đ which was Dj, but we consistently on en.wp use post WWI spelling. Do you want to withdraw this proposal? See Đuričić. Cheers. In ictu oculi (talk) 10:38, 26 January 2016 (UTC)

How do I do that? SLBedit (talk) 02:06, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

SLBedit, typically a nominator can withdraw if there are no other editors supporting the proposition, which appears to be the case here. If you'd like to withdraw, you can close the discussion yourself, or if you just say you'd like to withdraw, someone else can make a procedural close. Ping me if you need help with this. --BDD (talk) 15:38, 29 January 2016 (UTC)

• Oppose per WP:SERBIANNAMES and every other bio and geo article on en.wp. Plus he doesn't lose his name just by virtue of the stitching machine on a Belgian club's football shirt. User:Lugnuts yes. In ictu oculi (talk) 10:15, 26 January 2016 (UTC)
• Oppose per IIO. GiantSnowman 18:05, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

@GiantSnowman: What is IIO? SLBedit (talk) 18:09, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

'In ictu oculi'??? GiantSnowman 18:11, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

That would be Iio. SLBedit (talk) 18:20, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

• Oppose per above. – PeeJay 12:23, 28 January 2016 (UTC)
• Oppose per WP:SERBIANNAMES. We should use his actual name- which is his common name- rather than using a lazy translated version of his name. Joseph2302 (talk) 21:50, 28 January 2016 (UTC)
