Adèle of France, Countess of Flanders → Adela of France – There is no need for disambiguation. Her sister, the only other person listed at Adela of France, is called Hedwig. While French princesses called Alice or Adelaide may also be known as Adela, the Countess of Flanders seems to be the clear primary topic of Adela of France. The Latinized spelling Adela also reflects usage in English language sources, as is common with saints and medieval royals. Surtsicna (talk) 09:15, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Neutral can't see any problem with the current title In ictu oculi (talk) 13:49, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Isn't the fact that the spelling Adèle is never used and Adele hardly ever used in English language sources (as opposed to the widespread use of Adela) a problem? Or the excessive length of the title, which could and should be shorter per WP:CONCISE and WP:PRECISE? Admittedly, I should have mentioned this in the nomination.

She was not Norman...
Marriage to a Norman does not make you Norman. It DOES make you whatever consort of whatever title that spouse might have, but it does NOT make you Norman. Ealdgyth - Talk 14:04, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
