Queen Rajendra of Nepal → Rajendra Devi – The conventions at WP:NCROY indicate the a recently deceased consort should have this name. However, this consort has been deceased for a while now and I think the original surname is the best title unless there is a another WP:COMMONNAME regarding what the title should be.

Strong oppose - see "Sometimes queens and empresses are traditionally known by the name of their husband's country, as with Marie of Romania" from NCROY. A parallel would be moving Prince George of Denmark, consort of Queen Anne, to "George Oldenburg". --NotReallySoroka (talk) 04:55, 14 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

@NotReallySoroka: No, Prince George of Denmark is titled by the country they came from. This particular individual did not come from a royal family. If we follow that convention, we could move this article to Rajendra of Nepal instead if that is what's best. Interstellarity (talk) 18:22, 14 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Interstellarity, Yes, she did come from a noble royal family. In fact, she was the princess of the Kingdom of Palpa (Sen dynasty) which was one of the powerful Chaubise Rajyas. Bada Kaji (talk) 11:25, 15 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
