Henry Underhill, Baron Underhill → Reg Underhill – This is how he was usually known when he had his highest profile as the author of the controversial Underhill Report into Militant entryism in the Labour Party. Relisted. Favonian (talk) 12:09, 10 May 2014 (UTC). PatGallacher (talk) 01:33, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
- Strong Support he was only a lifepeer, not heriditary, so the title was not associated with him, until he had created a body of work that made him likely to receive a peerage. Further, he got the baronship after retiring, so was established prior to being a baron. WP:CONCISE, WP:UCN, and this is just the same as getting a KBE, since it wasn't inherited, and we don't note those in article titles. -- 65.94.171.206 (talk) 05:00, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
- Support move to Reg Underhill, Baron Underhill. Not well-known enough for the title to be omitted. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:02, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
- Support: It's more WP:CONCISE, has been commonly used, and doesn't seem to introduce ambiguity. But I must admit that I don't understand the rationale for including British honorifics in article titles as a matter of general practice. If there's a good reason for it, please consider me humbled by my ignorance. —BarrelProof (talk) 17:13, 10 May 2014 (UTC)
- Support per WP:COMMONNAME and WP:Concision razor (an essay written by Yours Truly that reflects policy-based reasoning that applies here). --В²C ☎ 01:16, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
- Support per previous users. Dralwik|Have a Chat 15:57, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
