Morgans Bay → Morgan Bay – The village is named after A.F. Morgan. It is often incorrectly named Morgans Bay (no apostrophe). The name can be confirmed on the official Municipal web page here: https://municipalities.co.za/overview/1005/great-kei-local-municipality W1k1anon2 (talk) 18:48, 8 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Support: Google Ngram and Google Advanced Search (searching for the term together with "South Africa" to avoid potential confusion with other places) confirm that "Morgan Bay" is the WP:COMMONNAME. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 14:10, 9 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
Support per BarrelProof. The language to search for is general English not any specific branch of English. – The Grid (talk) 18:25, 9 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
