Talk:Upper Mongols

Article name

edit

I am wondering about the article name. The Deed Mongols are named so because they are highlanders, and other groups of this kind have been named in English accordingly, e.g. High Germans. I must confess that I have not seen either term (upper, high) applied to this group in English writing, and I am wondering whether there is any conventional terminology. Even in Mongolian, Degedü Monggul (which I myself loaned when writing in English) is not by any means prevalent over "Köke nagur-un monggul", though I do prefer it. So what name would be appropriate? Note that I am considering to rename it if there is no input at all here. G Purevdorj (talk) 12:18, 29 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
