Jeanette Núñez → Jeanette Nuñez – The subject self identifies without the accented U, and English language reliable sources such as the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Miami Herald , Orlando Sentinel  , Tampa Bay Times  , and WLRN public radio in Miami  also leave out the accented U. Only Spanish-language media such as El Nuevo Herald (Spanish version of Miami Herald)   and Univision affiliate in Miami WLTV   consistently use the accented U. Thus, "Nuñez" is the name that's used in a "prevalence in a significant majority of independent, reliable English-language sources" per WP:COMMONNAME. Arbor to SJ (talk) 05:25, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Support per the evidence provided that the proposed name is the most common in both official and independent English-language sources.--Yaksar (let's chat) 19:08, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Support per nomination and Yaksar. Subject's official biography, political databases and all other English-language sources indicate her married name as Nuñez, not Núñez, and if that is how she and her husband depict their family name, that is how the main title header of her entry in English Wikipedia should depict it even if this common surname is further accented in the Spanish-speaking world and by other bearers of the surname. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 22:37, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Support per consistency with the position on MOS:IDENTITY with Ana Ivanović's instagram and logo, Raúl Juliá's signature and pro-Puerto Rican independence. No need to make a Miami-born American more Cuban, no need to make other nationalities more Anglo-Saxon. In ictu oculi (talk) 16:02, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose Literally the first results from Google are a couple of articles in the Miami Herald that use the accent throughout and a few recent YouTube videos from ABC News that also use the accent. It seems like the standard for both the Miami Herald and the Sun Sentinel is the accented version, so the proposal above is somewhere between misleading and false. You can also find plenty of examples in the Tampa Bay Times, another newspaper that used the accent today in their homepage and has been doing so for years. Not sure about MOS:IDENTITY when it is clear that her Twitter and Facebook are run by interns and use a non-standard spelling, Jeanette M. Nunez. Her signature is not clear, since neither the u or the e are graphically shown; the tilde is visible though, so that rules out Nunez. Overall, the proponents of this move have not provided any evidence for either WP:COMMONNAME or MOS:IDENTITY apart from cherry-picking a few sources. Since it is clear that the accent is widely used by independent, reliable English-language sources, there is little reason to drop it. Neodop (talk) 03:03, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
 * How likely is it that those media sources included the accented U because Wikipedia did so? Also, the Florida state government uses "Nuñez". Arbor to SJ (talk) 18:04, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
