Dorval R. Carter, Jr. → Dorval Carter – Carter is commonly referred to as "Dorval Carter" in the media, not his full name. Per WP:COMMONNAME, the article should use the common name used for people. OrdinaryScarlett (talk) 08:59, 14 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

Support - not to mention the comma doesn't follow the MOS. Regardless, Dorval Carter is simply the common name. WMSR (talk) 15:55, 15 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
