A/J Jackson → A. J. Jackson – MOS:TM / WP:TITLETM / MOS:SPACEINITS. The unusual styling with the slash is not followed consistently in independent sources. Rockwired used "A.J." and several other sources cited in the article have used "AJ". With the sources being inconsistent, the ordinary English formatting as generally used on Wikipedia should apply. The article was previously at "AJ Jackson" until an undiscussed move on 31 December 2017 with no edit summary. —BarrelProof (talk) 19:35, 19 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
- Support if American English MOS is to use dots after initials and this is used by sources, I see no reason to remove the stylism. Lazz_R 21:23, 19 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
- Support per nomination and Lazz_R. Standard MOS stylization serves best, with numerous examples found at List of literary initials. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 06:24, 20 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

- Support, very strange titling. --Quiz shows 21:51, 21 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
- Oppose, but support AJ Jackson. Note that "AJ" often serves as a given name, and can be considered a single entity rather than two letters. In sources it appears that "A/J Jackson" is most common, followed closely by "AJ Jackson", with "A.J. Jackson" popping up occasionally; the slight edge that "A/J" has over "AJ" isn't enough to overcome our general aversion to styling IMO. But I have yet to find a single source that says "A. J. Jackson" with the space. We should not be making up names that are completely unattested in sources. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 00:39, 27 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
