Title of article

edit

He was not generally known as Robert Montgomery McDowall. He was usually called Bob McDowall and wrote as R. M. McDowall. I think the title should be changed. To what, I am not sure, but I'm leaning towards Bob McDowall. What do others think? Nurg (talk) 05:20, 3 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

Complete agreement. It is a terribly clumsy title. Everyone calls him Bob McDowall so I think that would be best. Of the obituaries (first page of google search, either name variant) Bob is the usual and Robert Montgomery is only used once.
There are some mentions of other Bob McDowalls on Wikipedia, but no page of that title. — Preceding unsigned comment added by StellaMcQ (talkcontribs) 20:14, 3 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
