Louise Hippolyte, Princess of Monaco → Louise Hippolyte – The princess seems to be the primary meaning for this title. Векочел (talk) 04:47, 27 November 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. – robertsky (talk) 01:54, 5 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Oppose - Let's maintain the "Monarch of country" style for these page titles, so readers immediately know what country is be being reigned over. PS - Can't we wait until other RMs are completed, before starting others? GoodDay (talk) 17:47, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose in line with point 4 of WP:SOVEREIGN which clearly states that when there is no ordinal, the country name is retained (despite the recent change to point 3). Point 4 goes on to say that exceptions can be made in accordance with WP:CRITERIA, and indeed an argument might be made under WP:COMMONNAME for Princess Louise Hippolyte; using the princess's forenames only would not comply.

 * Actually, looking at this a bit more, there are two further points:
 * Her name should be hyphenated (Louise-Hippolyte) according to most reliable sources.
 * Monegasque sovereigns do seem to use ordinals even for the first and only holder with a given name, e.g. Antonio I and Jacques I, and there are several reliable sources that use an ordinal for Louise-Hippolyte.
 * Accordingly support move to Louise-Hippolyte I – and also drop "Prince of Monaco" from all the other unambiguous Monegasque rulers. Rosbif73 (talk) 13:35, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Oppose per Naming conventions (people): "don't use a first name (even if unambiguous) for an article title if the last name is known and fairly often used". DrKay (talk) 09:03, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
 * What title would you suggest? At the very least we ought to hyphenate as (the page was moved away from that title back in 2009 but I see no trace of a discussion); other options could include Louise-Hippolyte I as mentioned above or  as seen in some reliable sources.

 * Oppose for titles lesser than King/Queen, we use the title. Richiepip (talk) 04:38, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
