Príncipe Felipe Arena → Pabellón Príncipe Felipe – Nobody in Spain (and maybe in Europe) knows this pavillion with the name of Príncipe Felipe Arena. Gonzaka (talk) 22:13, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

• Support - per WP:UE we don't invent names; there are some handball html using the current title, but certainly looks like the formal title is more common in both handball and English ticket sales websites. Print sources are lacking in English for both versions. There's a similar dubious title at Coimbra University Stadium (usually Estádio Universitário de Coimbra).

  • But there are other arenas in Spain that uses this denomination like Fernando Buesa Arena, Bilbao Arena, Madrid Arena… But not this one and others. Gonzaka (talk) 16:54, 28 July 2013 (UTC)

Pabellón José Luis Abós → Pabellón Príncipe Felipe – This is a controversy now in Zaragoza. Let's see.

The pavillion was always named as "Pabellón Príncipe Felipe" since its opening, but in 2015 the new government of the town of Zaragoza decided to change the name to "Pabellón José Luis Abós", in honour to a former manager of CAI Zaragoza, who dead in 2014, without any discussion in the Hall. When the works for changing the name were in process, a judicial sentence decided to stop the naming and to remain the old name "Príncipe Felipe" (source).

Currently, all the main events (CAI Zaragoza games) are played at "Príncipe Felipe" and not at "José Luis Abós" and the Town Hall refers to it as "Pabellón Príncipe Felipe" (source). Asturkian (talk) 10:31, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
