J&J is not a common nickname

edit

J&J should redirect to the disambiguation page as it is not a common nickname for Johnson and Johnson. I believe it is just confusing. I may be wrong and it is controversial so please share your thoughts down below. 2600:100E:B006:CE65:810E:AF3A:436C:7EAE (talk) 23:46, 24 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

A cursory Google search shows not only that Johnson & Johnson uses "J&J" to refer to the business, but multiple respected business publications also refer to J&J, especially in article headers:
The J&J redirect is thus based on common usage in reliable sources. Let's leave it. — Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 05:31, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Fully concur with Grand'mere Eugene. The J&J nickname is widely used for the company and is well-known in American news media and popular culture, just as Disney is widely used for the Walt Disney Company. --Coolcaesar (talk) 06:53, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
As shown, "J&J" actually has common usage in reporting. I assume that your confusion stems from the fact that nobody (or very few people at least) refers to the company as "J&J" in speech. So you're not incorrect to notice that people don't typically say "J&J". But in this case, the usage is based on written communication, particularly reporting/press releases, not on everyday spoken communication. pillowcrow 21:36, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
