Eskmo → Brendan Angelides – The subject of the article has changed its name and the new name has come into majority use. Bobtinontinton (talk) 16:51, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

 * It's not clear that the common name has changed. This is best discussed first. Timrollpickering (talk) 17:38, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose: I have found no indication that he has really stopped using the name "Eskmo", which seems to be a name that is much more well known than "Brendan Angelides". His own official website, at https://www.ancestormedia.com/about, lists all of his compositions as "composed by Eskmo" and similar. I see no indication that he has stopped using that name, which is used in all of the sources that are cited in the article. All of his releases on Amazon and Apple Music are credited as Eskmo (only). On Amazon, a search for "Brendan Angelides" turns up nothing at all. On Apple Music, a search for "Brendan Angelides" turns up only works credited as "Eskmo". —BarrelProof (talk) 14:34, 8 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Angelides is currently in the process of shifting from using the artist name, "Eskmo" to "Brendan Angelides," so past works would not reflect the change. On IMDb, his page has been changed from Eskmo to Brendan Angelides, and the bio has been updated as well. His website, ancestormedia.com includes his past works released under the Eskmo alias, but his bio has been updated to not include his former artist name. Angelides has also changed his social media accounts from Eskmo to Brendan Angelides. Bobtinontinton (talk) 15:50, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: Procedural close. This is just immediately repeating the last comment that was made before the other RM was closed, trying to revert the decision that had been declared only a few hours earlier. The proper procedure for appealing an RM closure decision is documented at WP:Move review. Please use that process if you don't like the outcome instead of just repeating the same arguments with another RM. —BarrelProof (talk) 15:57, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

Eskmo → Brendan Angelides – Angelides recently announced on his Instagram and Twitter accounts that he is officially shifting from using the artist name, "Eskmo," to "Brendan Angelides." In his post the artist states, "I have changed my artist name to Brendan Angelides. When I was 19, I made an album as a project to complete high school. I named it “ESKMO” and just kept going, not grasping or understanding the weight that it has for the First Peoples of Canada, Alaska and beyond." On IMDb, his page has been changed from Eskmo to Brendan Angelides, and the bio has been updated as well. His most recent credits (Naked Singularity & Minimum Mass) are credited as Brendan Angelides instead of "as Eskmo," further proof of this decision.

 * Comment: The new Twitter and Instagram posts look pretty convincing to me. —BarrelProof (talk) 03:36, 27 July 2020 (UTC)
