Leslie Desmond Foster Vesey-FitzgeraldDesmond Vesey-Fitzgerald – The name he was known by according to: [1][2]innotata 21:47, 5 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

And what should be sense of leaving the other names? His full name can be read in many publications. --Melly42 (talk) 08:33, 6 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
It's better to use the names people are commonly known by in article titles, to keep them simple, and their full names can be given in the lead sentence. Look at nearly any article on a biologist, take Charles Darwin—we use that title even though he was sometimes credited as C. R. Darwin. In this case, sources are pretty clear he was known by "Desmond". —innotata 02:13, 8 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
After taking a look at Google and Google books, i have to say, you can move it. Though ″Foster" is also rather often stated --Melly42 (talk) 17:59, 8 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
