Jessica Carter → Jess Carter – Some existing sources, including the ones added in later on, and two external links uses the shorter version. The latest BBC report featuring the player plus Instagram and the Lionesses website (documenting the 20–0 win) shortens the first name as well in terms of recent reports.

Support while I think the title was chosen correctly back in 2016 based on the sources available at that time, this nomination is also correct that more recent usage would seem to support the move. She (or maybe the lackeys running her comms) calls herself Jess on Twitter as well as 'insta': @_JessCarter. Bring back Daz Sampson (talk) 10:10, 4 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
