Olympiacos B → Olympiacos F.C. B – To match the name of the parent team Olympiacos F.C., similarly to Juventus F.C. Under-23, FC Bayern Munich II and FC Barcelona B. Nehme₁₄₉₉ 15:48, 20 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, per WP:COMMONNAME; Google News returns 500 results for "Olympiacos B" and zero results for "Olympiacos F.C. B" or "Olympiacos FC B". I would support moving "Olympiacos F.C." to "Olympiacos", however. BilledMammal (talk) 17:17, 20 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@BilledMammal: That would be the case for literally all football teams, though. Obviously Juventus is more common than Juventus F.C., and Manchester United is more common than Manchester United F.C. It's convention to include the acronyms in football club titles. Nehme₁₄₉₉ 17:37, 20 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
