Talk:Francis Bullock-Marsham

Page move
So, the chap's surname is tricky. He is known by Marsham in some circumstances Bullock-Marsham in others. CHB Marsham also has Bullock but never that I've seen with the hyphen, whereas FW usually, although not always, has the hyphen, especially in military contexts - which is where the bulk of the article will end up I imagine. I'd suggest a quick move to Francis Bullock-Marsham with suitable redirects and that we use whichever name is most commonly used in the context it's used in without worrying about things.

There's a brief discussion of this at User talk:MilborneOne. In particular, thoughts? Blue Square Thing (talk) 14:16, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
 * In cricket records, he seems to be known only as Marsham but he was a very minor player so I would definitely go with Bullock-Marsham as that seems to be how he was known in the military sphere where he was much more notable. There have been numerous cases of people who played a sport under one name while they were young and subsequently became known by another. Does WP:COMMONNAME help here? Hope this is useful.
